  1. DB just holding his head down in disappointment in himself and thankfulness that Sam decided to go elsewhere with the TD throw that play.

  2. I saw it described:

    Sam didn’t see the NCAAF Open JSN, and threw it to Arroyo who was only NFL Open.

  3. Not gonna lie I could’ve really used those fantasy points lol I love our offense so much this season

  4. I love his body language as he turns his head he fully expected to see the ball sail over him to JSN. He put that young man in the Wok.

  5. The CBs body language is everything in this clip. His body literally screaming “Beat again, it’s gonna be a long night”

  6. Glad he’s not diva status. DK would’ve been throwing a fit on the sideline for being wide open and ignored

  7. The body language of the defender here just new he was got. The drop of the eyes, going into full jr high school sprinter (head down) knowing he has to cover that ground but is already out of position.

    JSN would have walked in here and we already had the TE scoring a TD by then.

    JSN did more than some yardage stuff in this game. He was a factor every time he was on the field because the D has to respect his game.

    There was an important third down in the second half (in my eyes) and Sam got pushed to his right. Late in the down JSN uncovers, catches it for first, then works 20 more yards up field through traffic. This catch was entirely late down effort by JSN. 85% of the leagues receivers are already slowing down in that situation giving up on the rep. Not JSN because he’s fucking special. JSN will have all the team WR records if he plays his career here. Bet.

  8. As someone with JSN on his fantasy team, this made me a little sad. Happy the hawks still got the TD and excited for that receivers first one (I can’t remember who caught it off hand), but I would have loved some extra fantasy points.

    Also nice to complain about trivial things instead of a loss.

  9. The all22 shows the safety, 20, shaded heavily to JSNs side to provide help over the top. It still may have been a TD if Darnold puts it to the sideline, but not guaranteed. But the safety was not in position to help with the TE because of the respect for JSN. I think Sam saw this pre snap and that’s why it went to Arroyo. 

  10. Darnold will probably kick himself for not seeing how wide open JSN was but the throw to Arroyo was too damned good to care.

  11. We were almost feeling bad for JSN. Seemed like everyone was getting TD’s except him last night. But then I blinked and he was still over 125 yards. Crazy. It’s a new era.

  12. there’s another angle of this where one of the safeties is crashing down towards him on the route but still… we love JSN

  13. That’s totally some Doug Baldwin juke there. Didn’t Doug always say he got some of that from watching Allen iverson

  14. Craziest part is he never touches him to get this separation either. I see some guys lean a hand and do the vet push but he never does

  15. Sam had the luxury of first read throws last night multiple times last night.

    Oh you’re open? Throw.

  16. The release by Horton on his 2nd TD was also ridiculous. Absolutely smoked Sainrstill off the line and was 5 yards behind him before the dude even turned around.

  17. I legit felt bad for JSN not getting a TD. Horton arrival party is pretty sweet tho. Could be a pretty slick tandem.
