In re-watching the game just now, I focused in on how the ball ended up in Sunseri's hands.

Danielson described it as having had been batted up in the air by Jarrick Williams' left hand

Which is certainly how it initially looked.

But when you reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally slow it down, you see that it actually bounded up in the air off Williams' helmet!

Wow, talk about usin' your head!

Jarrick was in the right place at the right time.

If I told you at the beginning of the season that Sunseri would have as many touchdowns as Yeldon and Cooper combined, what would you have said to me? Lol

He really does have an eye for the end zone. He knew he had to jump to make sure his knee wouldn't be down before. Awesome play.



He is looking to have the kind of year that Lester had that one time.​

Yep... Great play. I wonder if there is a place in the NFL for a guy like him these days. I am a Cowboys fan and he reminds me of Bill Bates. I just don't know if a Bill Bates kind of player can make it in today's game. The game is so fast now days. I hope Sal makes it though as he is smart and has a huge heart!

That was an impressive TD return after he intercepted the ball, he has offensive type moves running with the ball, like a bigger version of "Johnny Football"..Put him offense Coach, and let him work his magic on that side of the ball, he could be plugged in on the offense if needed be..LOL

Oh yeah he didn't juke Johnny that hard, he really just whiffed. Head down and all.

I wouldn't call it a "juke." What he did was give JM a limp leg. His left leg kept on driving and JM, not the greatest defender, had nothing to hold on to. It was definitely a RB-type move...

That dive into the end zone is hilarious. We're so use to the Reggie Bush type dives for TDs with the fast front flip and then VS gives us the slow motion fish out of water jump. Greatness

But not too high...as to draw a penalty for excessive celebration. That's why it was "greatness" as previously labeled - may have been a necessity to propel him into the end zone or may have been Vinnie showing the acme of his "athleticism" and the officials didn't want to be put on the spot as Russian Olympic judges.

Agreed...

Still though, as athletic as everyone is saying John Boy is, not saying he's not, you would have thought that would have been a text book tackle. He looked like a fish out of water. He made his own secondary proud, and Longhorns' too...

I noticed that on the first slo-mo replay after he scored. The ball jumped too sharply up in the air from just hand contact.
