Dan Orlovsky on 'The Throw of the Year' (so far)

One thing about Orlovsky, the man knows his stuff when it comes to QBs. Good stuff.

Note: you gotta click the volume button to un-mute the sound if you want to hear his analysis

Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

look at decker in the last seconds of that video. thatā€™s a man that knows how to celebrate a TD ;)ā€¦ oddly enough he didnā€™t have to even block anybody on the play!

Thatā€™s reason to celebrate in itself.:rofl:

That is some great stuff right there by DanO. Luckily his ability to analyze a play that has already happened is far better than his ability to predict what will happen

Great find wise, I was literally getting on here to post the link myselfā€¦this throw can not get enough loveā€¦wow.

My seats are on the 20 yard line on that end and from the side I could tell Stafford had to fire it and thread the needle. But until I saw that view from behind Stafford I had no idea how incredibly small the window was that he threw that through. And how fast that window closed

Orā€¦ how freaking awesome Mattā€™s brain is that processes all of this shut inreal time in like 1/4 of a sec upon snap?!

This is why I donā€™t argue with anyone who keeps saying Matt isnā€™t smart enoughā€¦

If the play he is called to run sucksā€¦ he will most likely suck

When the play is fucking defined to allow for this type of WB respondsā€¦ this is what happens.

He will never be perfect but Iā€™ve said since we picked Bevel up and I reasearched him

Greatest single move the Lions have done!ā€™

He will also be part of the process imho to pick Mattā€™s successorā€¦ I truly believe Bevel is our OC for the next 5-10 yrs

Any less of an arm and that is picked off or knocked down.
First time I saw the replay I couldnā€™t believe that ball got through there.
Threaded a needle with a bullet!

Great QBā€™s donā€™t necessarily need the strongest arm but there are instances that it does help to have a ā€œHowlizerā€ as DanO says. That pass reminds me of the pass to Pettigrew to beat Cleveland. Good stuff!
