Can you imagine the pain he must have went through to drag himself, jump then hitting the ground? He took it for the team and could have hurt himself more. I have a lot of respect for players who play with heart.
This was a good article when it was first posted by Gregg Rosenthal yesterday on about a dozen other sites. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...y-completed-the-most-badass-play-of-the-year/ http://nyc.barstoolsports.com/rando...-greg-jennings-with-his-broken-leg-in-madden/ http://sportifi.com/news/Jerricho-Cotchery-completed-the-most-badass-play-of-the-year-145861.html I can go on and on... Please learn to cite, it's just good juju.
He's scrambling to the left & just avoided being sacked twice & needs to throw across the field & he's got a bad leg & he's way outside the pocket. Can't blame Sanchez there for choosing Cotchery. Don't get me wrong though, I would've been ecstatic if he managed hit Braylon for the TD there. === Checked out links & didn't realize Sanchez is younger than Colt McCoy. Sanchez is just looking better & better.
NFL films did a segment on Stafford last year where he got hurt It's a SOUNDFX It was such a motivating clip to see this guy clearly in deep pain & to get up with 1 arm & still guide His team to a win. Just the way NFL films did the piece would be nice to see them do that on Cotchery's play. Ironically both games are vs Cleveland http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-films-sound-efx/09000d5d8147c551/Sound-FX-Matthew-Stafford-mic-d-up
Yeah people were cracking me up talking about how J cotch couldn't catch a ball and pretty much just writing him off which I knew was obsurd. If you haven't been watching this guy since he left NC state untill this year the last few games to be exact, this guy NEVER drops balls. If anyone could find a caught to dropped ball ratio I guarantee he has one of the highest, if he's targeted and its a catchable ball 18/20 times he reels it in Plus playing through the injury... if everyone on the team played with his mentality and toughness to never give up on a play we'd never lose a game, but the players see Cotch sacrafice they see Marc soldier through the game after getting banged up and I think that mentalitys going to spread like a disease
I think Cotchery topped himself yesterday. His run down the sideline on the key drive of the game was a thing of beauty. All the receivers came up huge against the Pats - what a crew. But Cotchery is still my favorite Jet and he was in vintage form last night.
Cotch was the primary weapon yesterday, I loved it. He didn't have as bad a season as a lot of people thought, but he had a rough patch and all of a sudden he's a goat. Meanwhile, Holmes and Edwards both had as many if not more unforgivable drops this year and they get a pass because they are a flashy name. Cotchery is always one of the biggest unsung heroes on this team, since the year Mangini got here.
While I definitely agree with the part about Holmes, I cannot understand why people keep saying Edwards had multiple horrible drops this year. He was easily the most reliable of the three this year by far and everyone still assumes he dropped a ton because of his reputation.
