. Unblocked on a 1st quarter pass play, Wooder wasn’t content to merely love-tap the QB to the ground. Rather, he delivered a blistering, yet legal, hit to Shaub, who was clearly woozy after the play.


So, when Joey Porter went in untouched to sack Peyton Manning in the 2005 Playoff game against Indy it was a "Dong Sac", but when Lamarr Woodley does it's great?

Fuckface, the great part was the blistering hit which made Shaub woozy, which distinguishes it from a Dong Sac.

Think about what you read next time.

He still went in untouched. I wouldn't call Porter's hit on Manning a love tap.

Fuckface huh? :sufu:

Woodley's hit completely changed to complexion of the game. After that, Schaub knew it wasn't going to be an easy day, and Woodley continued to get pressure the rest of the game. He deserved the Hard Hat award.

As for Porter at Indy in 2005, he did play a good game getting pressure on Peyton, but never delivered a crushing hit, and as far as I can remember, never delivered a hit that changed a game. He did, however, make other plays in his prime that changed games.

Great job, Still Mill. Parker and Woodley are excellent choices for the Game #1 Hard Hat Award. :celebrate:

Woodley's sack was a dong sack by definition. The fact that Shaub came up woozy was just a matter of chance. Porter attacked Manning with equal effort and force in 2005, but Manning had the sense to duck while Shaub was late to react.

In the end, it's all silly. Woodley had a great game whether you call it a dong sack or not.

That was my point. I wasn't implying that Woodley wasn't worthy of the award. I was simply exposing the hypocritical nature of one Still Mill. If he doesn't like a player they can nothing right. But when it's somebody he approves of they can do the exact same thing and win the Hard Hat Award.

The fact of the matter, however, is that Big Jason was an over hyped, overrated, overpaid slouch, who benefited enormously from scheme; playing amongst many great players; and cheesy Dong Sacks and stack jumps.


Scheme is part of the game so are "cheesy sacks" a sack is a sack, a TD is a TD. I agree that Gildon was overrated and got some "give me" sacks , but in any case have the balls to call Woodley's sack what it was. Woodley is a huge upgrade over Haggens, but as soon as he fucks up Mill will find something to cry about. If Mill can "expose frauds" (to use his words) then somebody needs to call him out when he's a hypocrite. Who on this board (besides Mill) doesn't cheer like hell when the Steelers get a sack? It's always a good thing even if it's a dong sack.

Dong sacks are garbage sacks. Like the Flopper's wide loop rush sacks that didn't force the QB out of the pocket, took him completely out of the play (no containment on the run), and relied on great pass coverage for him to get the glory. Coming in clean is nothing to whine about as either the defensive scheme was great for the play or the blitzer made a great read on the pass protection.

I love the intelligence and truth of this post, instead of the ignorance and axe-grinding of other posts.
