The hit is questionable. Ultimately JG is in control of the ball and can unload whenever he deems necessary to do so. I see it both ways.
he can, for sure. and I also added the offensive line can hold onto their blocks better. it shouldn't have to come down to Jimmy having to rely on unloading the ball in order to avoid a big hit. he has a line to protect him for a reason. but it was the wording of your previous statement on the subject matter that I really took issue with is all
If the OL can hold their blocks longer, why don't they? Are you suggesting they only hold them for a set time and then clock out?
oh no, I'm just saying there's more than just 1 answer.
