Pollard just continues to flat-out amaze me.
My TiVo caught NFL Replay of our game vs. the Browns, so I was watching it while doing some web browsing.
Half-way through the third quarter, Pollard recovered a fumble on a kick return. I watched the replay in slow slo-motion. As the returner was coming toward him, Pollard was tied up by a blocker. Pollard spun to the outside, peeling off the defender and continued his spin back inside (virtually coming backwards at the returner, now facing the same direction as the returner and then came up on his back as he was slowed by Page) and then stripped the ball out from behind. But it wasn't in his arms, it kind of floated in front of his chest as he fell, so he got it between one arm and his chest and brought his legs up as he fell. AND fought off the invading arm of a Cleveland player who was falling on top of him. Friggin' amazing athleticism and focus. Time and time again, he brought in amazing, impossible, big plays like this last year. It's going to be awesome to watch this guy this year. |
