There was no "hat to hat". This was a squeaky clean hit. I like that they are trying to protect the players but it gets ridiculous sometimes.....like here.
I see he did lean with the shoulder but there still was helmet to helmet contact. a bang bang play really. It wasn't a dirty hit but i believe it was the right call at full speed and slowed down it's close but right still. The best part is that the Maehl man held on to the ball, stumbled getting up but then shook it off and was ready to go. That's a gritty WR. Most reviecers would have dropped that ball. That one tough guy catching the football. It's a shame he went undrafted.
@dboardman17: Impossible. At the angle he hit with his shoulder the only way the helmets could've hit was if his helmet was the size of a beach ball or his neck snapped.
Yeah and look who made the catch and popped right back up, unharmed. I would like if any of you haters could even run through the middle of the defense and not shy away from contact. This is a much more impressive catch than a hit
@Chimaira2689 And yet, all you can do is sit there and talk about how you proved your point? The only thing you proved is that you didn't know what the fuck you were talking about with sarcasm and the internet. And then when I call you out on it, suddenly it's a straw man? Whatever.
Reply if you like. I'm sure you will. You come off as that type of douche who has to claim everyone else needs to have the last word to justify his own need to do so.
@Chimaira2689 However, given the nature and timeliness of your response, it is implied that you meant that sarcasm could not exist without inflection. I mean, how else is someone supposed to take it when you use the term "Inflection and sarcasm go hand in hand my friend." as a response to "inflection is lost on the internet, sarcasm is not."?
Your point hasn't been proven, lest of all without a doubt.
tl;dr Quit acting retarded. Saying "I win cause I say so" only works for school bullies.
@Chimaira2689 So now they don't go hand-in-hand? Which is it there, sir? Do you believe that sarcasm cannot exist without inflection (as you originally claimed), or is sarcasm possible without it?
@Chimaira2689 Given Afalava's NFL career stats, my obvious nature as a Duck fan, and the fact that I referenced a former Duck who's actually making an impact on his team in the same statement, the sarcasm should have been implied.
While I concede that inflection is lost on the internet, sarcasm is not. It's not my fault you're too slow to piece together a simple puzzle.
Maehl is a GREAT COLLEGE PLAYER. Why does everyone think he will go pro? He's too small. Let's be honest, he is no Wes Welker. If anything he will only make a practice squad..IF
The point is that the play could have been made without the controversy and Afalava knows it and so do the rest of you. He wasn't going for the ball as he had his hands bunched up near his chest projecting his shoulder out to make an extremely hard hit with the desired result to knock the ball loose and prevent a catch and to hurt the reciever. The Helmet making virtually simultaneous contact wasn't intended though I'll agree with that.
@Leavon Well he's obviously going to try and knock the ball loose to prevent a catch. That's what his job is. I don't see how this hit is illegal in any way. He's leading with his shoulder and avoiding Maehl's helmet. Perfectly legal hit.
Fouts (the announcer) played for the U of O, and even he didn't think the hit was dirty. It was a nice play by the defense, a great job hanging on to the ball by the receiver, and as usual, a pathetic bit of officiating by a Pac 10 crew. How this can be the "League of Champions" with the worst officials in the country, I'll never know.
I've seen this hit in slow mo. It's absolutley clean. Afalava leads with the shoulder. to the receiver's shoulder. The receiver's head snaps forward and his facemask hits the side of Afalava's helmet after the shoulder contact. Not an easy call to make at full speed. .
@BBdaWolfy Apparently you and 16 other people miss the part where Afalava lowers his head as he goes in for the hit. That's why the penalty gets called.
if people cant take the hit dont play fuckn football.. ur a pussy if u cant take the hit so leave football and join another profession. and the fuckn refs to football is all about hitting u fuckn asswholes
I'm a Duck fan....that's a somewhat clean hit. Afalava did almost everything in his power to try to lead with his shoulder but he didn't get down far enough. the crown of his helmet went right into Maehl's. i wouldn't call it a cheap shot at all...but i wouldn't say the refs were wrong either.
The view from the endzone makes it look completely clear, that Al's shoulder was all that went into the receiver. If the helmets touched, its because the Duck's head snapped forward from the hit.
@tyberiksen you're missing the point of what i was saying. his right shoulder went into Maehl's left shoulder. that means the two helmets did hit. the fact that he put his head down and used the crown was the clincher for the refs.
my point is that the rule needs to be altered because it's nearly impossible to hit someone cleanly and have it be a good hit nowadays. i think it was a good hit but according to the rules, the refs had it right. which we both can agree is crap.
Fair enough. That's consistent with my view: Al tucked his head forward (left of player), but from the refs view that would be seen as leading with his head. Back view cleared it up.
@essdubb1070 maehl was a sophmore at the time and decided to do the same thing as kristic and stay in school until his senior year, jerk, get your facts straight. that hit was legal from the helmet to helmet stand point, but it was targeting an unprotected reciever, which is a rule, so again, GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!! even as a Duck (not dusk, omg) fan, i'll give kristic a 100% for effort.
@essdubb1070 wow check your facts, Jeffrey Maehl was only a freshmen in this game... which makes him a senior this year. So of course he isn't in the NFL.
@essdubb1070 that "duck" is the best receiver in the pac-10 on a national championship-material team this year. you may be right about it being shoulder to shoulder though
@essdubb1070-well actually that Duck is currently a senior and starting WR for the Ducks, and he is arguably the best receiver in the Pac-10. Does that answer your question why that Duck isn't in the NFL?
@essdubb1070 dumbass...maehl was a freshmen at the time. what has afalava done in the NFL? maehl is still in college making his mark, tearing it up in national championships, winning conferences, leading the conference is receiving and going undefeated. eat a dick DUMBASS
@jdjsd15141086 First off you need to look up the definition of pussy. Second off This is football and when you have the ball, off balance or not defenders are taught to fucking kill. This D back did just that and he celebrated his hard nose fucking hit. Should this D back wait for the WR to get balance then hit him? Didnt think so idiot. Should D backs not celebrate big hits? Didnt think so idiot. Helmet to helmet is another gay rule, this is football.
that a boy way to kill some duck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It's football. How in the hell can that be a cheap shot? Yeah, Afalava is capable of aiming the specific part of his helmet at a specific part of his opponent and top speed....ok....retard.
@TSxUCEHADOUKEN I hear ya. Still, I don't think I ever said it wasn't a good hit. You don't think with hands like that over the middle that Maehl could make it in the NFL?
I dont know about football elsewhere in the world but im samoan and we live for the helmet to helmet contact..and dumb call because he went in shoulder first.
@TSxUCEHADOUKEN Wow, it's amazing what a stir my comment is causing. I guess I should admit that deep down I don't care about any of this "you couldn't make that hit" crap. Yes it was a killer hit! I'm not saying it wasn't or that I could even dream of tackling like that. What really matters is that I am a Duck for life and I love that we've crushed the Beaver's Rose Bowl hopes two years in a row!
How could this be called helmet to helmet, neither players helmets were involved in this hit. It was Al's shoulder to Maehl's chest/shoulder area? Clean hit all the way! Fuck the Pac 10 ref's!
Need to change the title; THAT WAS NOT A CHEAP SHOT!!! That's the NCAA following the bullshit rules the NFL has put in place for the sake of "protecting a defenseless player." The NFL is ruining American football....it's a collision sport! If u ain't man enough to take a hit, don't step on the damn field!
@crfranchises1: That wasn't a "tackle", it was a "hit." Laying the hit or wood or smack or whatever u wanna call it, emphasizes "imposing ur will" or letting the other team know, we came to knock ur ass out. That receiver know has "alligator arms" and will think twice when required to run his route through the middle again. It's part of the mental side, but yes, kids don't wrap anymore, they wanna be Sportscenter too, and not leave it to the skill players.
All you guys are talking about how great the hit was, but even without the penalty he made a great catch for a first down. Obviously Afalava can't hit hard enough!
Looks like he led with his shoulder to me

@Chimaira2689 Inflection and Sarcasm are not two parts of a whole. Sarcasm can be done without inflection. For Example:

There is no inflection there, but it is pretty clear that the statement is sarcastic in nature.

@jdjsd15141086 First off you need to look up the definition of pussy. Second off This is football and when you have the ball, off balance or not defenders are taught to fucking kill. This D back did just that and he celebrated his hard nose fucking hit. Should this D back wait for the WR to get balance then hit him? Didnt think so idiot. Should D backs not celebrate big hits? Didnt think so idiot. Helmet to helmet is another gay rule, this is football.

It's football. How in the hell can that be a cheap shot? Yeah, Afalava is capable of aiming the specific part of his helmet at a specific part of his opponent and top speed....ok....retard.

@jtuds Every other safety can do that and make a clean play. Why Afalava cannot, I will never know.

@TSxUCEHADOUKEN I hear ya. Still, I don't think I ever said it wasn't a good hit. You don't think with hands like that over the middle that Maehl could make it in the NFL?

I dont know about football elsewhere in the world but im samoan and we live for the helmet to helmet contact..and dumb call because he went in shoulder first.

@TSxUCEHADOUKEN Wow, it's amazing what a stir my comment is causing. I guess I should admit that deep down I don't care about any of this "you couldn't make that hit" crap. Yes it was a killer hit! I'm not saying it wasn't or that I could even dream of tackling like that. What really matters is that I am a Duck for life and I love that we've crushed the Beaver's Rose Bowl hopes two years in a row!

How could this be called helmet to helmet, neither players helmets were involved in this hit. It was Al's shoulder to Maehl's chest/shoulder area? Clean hit all the way! Fuck the Pac 10 ref's!

Need to change the title; THAT WAS NOT A CHEAP SHOT!!! That's the NCAA following the bullshit rules the NFL has put in place for the sake of "protecting a defenseless player." The NFL is ruining American football....it's a collision sport! If u ain't man enough to take a hit, don't step on the damn field!

Bad call but even worst tackle, whats up with kids looking for the highlight reel shots these days. WRAP UP!
crfranchises1 2 years ago
@crfranchises1: That wasn't a "tackle", it was a "hit." Laying the hit or wood or smack or whatever u wanna call it, emphasizes "imposing ur will" or letting the other team know, we came to knock ur ass out. That receiver know has "alligator arms" and will think twice when required to run his route through the middle again. It's part of the mental side, but yes, kids don't wrap anymore, they wanna be Sportscenter too, and not leave it to the skill players.

just surprised he wasnt knocked out from that geezus

All you guys are talking about how great the hit was, but even without the penalty he made a great catch for a first down. Obviously Afalava can't hit hard enough!

@dancameronw i like how u guys say the hit wasnt hard. no diss but id like to see you take a hit like that
