He deserved it. Go Dadi!
Congrats, Dadi!
Any idea why he decided to slow down before he made the hit?
For your viewing pleasure.
It is a little-known fact that Dadi Nicolas is actually powered by the fear of opposing QBs. When making a sack, he will often pause, lock eyes with his prey, and draw an additional few drops of delicious terror from him.
So, he's the real life embodiment of Monsters, Inc?
My exact thought as I finished typing that.
I hope everyone looks at the defensive alignment and play call on this play and takes a moment to appreciate the brilliance of Bud Foster.
for real. That one lineman that was ready to block 40 (clarke?) is all of a sudden just sitting there with nothing to do but turn his back to dadi.
That guy's all like, "Yeah, I got him, c'mere ya little shi- wait, what the? Aw, crap."
Corey Marshall may have had the better game.
