thl, post the video of him getting knocked the fook out. I genuinely feared for Trent. I don't know how our team doctors failed to notice it. The guy laid lifeless on top of the football until his regained his bearings.
I know from personal experience that humans tend to be extra prone to more concussions the period immediately after being concussed. He could've easily had his lights shut out again with a lesser blow after that hit. That's why it's imperative to pull him out of the game.

Nah. Both said after the game he ran the route that was called. Taylor just beat that dude so bad on the first move that when he came back (as the play called for) that guy was lucky to be in the way.
Both said it wasn't a two-way go, so if Taylor kept running Hoyer would've thrown it directly to the CB...where Taylor should have been. Since it was a goal line situation it was a timing route...so the ball was coming out at that time regardless.
I believe the correct timing on that route is to throw the ball as soon as he plants his back foot in the 3 step drop back, you'll notice he pops up in his stance then shifts towards Taylor. Very slight delay, but there is a delay that IMO is not suppose to be there.

On a cut back pivot, you want to deliver the ball right as the player is performing the cut back.
Hoyer let the ball go AFTER Taylor made his cut back

I think he was definitely knocked out but then then once he hit the ground it woke him again

Yup, that's exactly what happened.

Shhhhhh! No positivity allowed!
Thank you!

Dude is a gamer, plain and simple. Good move to get him the game reps instead of Kerley, not even taking into account being a plus PR.

Bad play call by Shanny on this. He should have added a TE escaping out to the flat or an out towards the goalline at the same time Trent Taylor did his pivot route

Good call!
He is a keeper.

When was the last time a drafted rookie WR scored a touchdown for us?
