🏈 Dickerson can handle the "twist."

Damn....what a block

...Look, I know it rubs some folks the wrong way with his aggression... But his style of play was what I was raised playing. Especially when the I-Formation was the norm. I played Right Guard & it was always a pissing contest between me, the center & the Left guard as to who played the meanest. And boy... if that play was coming in either of your gaps, you better do your job because they are going to have to pull the fullback out of your a$$ with a come-along if you don't move your guy...

Good times.

@Crimson&WhiteGecko What he did in that clip was play physical. That is football so absolutely no issues with that at all. My take is that people are ok with aggression but not ok if he blocks after the whistle or takes a little bit of a cheap shot.

I probably could've been a little more clear in that I love his style of play too & it is good to see it back on the field to make other teams a$$ quit.

It's football, baby. I tell my 7-8 year olds to get nasty and either hit someone or get hit. Knock their faces in the dirt or get yours put there. Probably going to show my guys this clip tonight.

In this case, I was a little surprised he didn't grind him into the turf, he just chirped at him. For Dickerson, that was restraint.

Textbook block by Dickerson. Nice job of reacting to the twist and picking up the correct man.

Great block! I like Dickerson’s mean streak.

Nothing wrong with teaching guys to “play through the whistle” either!!
