PFF snippet on Nelson:

The rook is pretty unreal and is as advertized pre-draft with all the hype. It looks like he can walk the walk of being a top tier NFL lineman. Walk Worthy, |
Nelson is absolutely killing it this season, yeah he's been beat a few times here and there,that happens to the best of them (the defense gets paid too), but the mentality he brings to the O-Line has been incredible and contagious.
I love the fact that no matter what, he plays through the whistle every play. Pay attention to the end of the plays, he's always the one picking up his teammates after a play, or to congratulate them on a 68 yard touchdown bomb, like TY this week when Nelson "Simba'd" him. TY even rewarded him with the football to spike. This team is having fun out there, something I haven't been able to say for several years. I am fortunate to have season tickets this year, although it's a boring ass 3hr drive from Michiana every week, I can't wait to renew/upgrade for next year. The crowd has even gotten back into things after a slow start early on. As an HS/Youth O-line coach, he's incredible to watch in person and will provide some good tape to show my boys. Been watching him in person for a few years now, but seems to really have figured things out these last 2 years, just glad it wasn't only a product of being surrounded by elite talent at ND and glad to see Mcglinchey having similar success at San Fran. |
Please re watch the third and nine with two minutes to go in the fourth quarter of tonight's Dolphin's game. When Luck starts his scramble he and the entire offensive and defensive line are at the Colts 35 EXCEPT for Nelson and his man who Nelson has freakin stonewalled at the Colts 40. Not only does Luck run thru the hole make by Nelson's damn stonewall, Nelson holds his block until after Luck runs up behind his big ass and throws for the first down. Damn this guy is a difference maker.

Dude mentioned on Baldinger's twitter site that Nelson got a few holding calls on him. I love Baldy's answer
Terry Brodnik @tbrodnik 13h13 hours ago Replying to @BaldyNFL @Colts @BigQ56 @BigQ56 played well but got his name called by the official a few times today. Was it something D was doing in particular that was getting him today, officials just calling it a bit different, or ??? 1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes Brian Baldinger Verified account @BaldyNFL 13h13 hours ago Who cares what the stripes call. They won 5 in a row. He annihilates people b/c he wants to crush their spirit. Live with it 3 replies 8 retweets 86 likes |
lol...............b/c he wants to crush their spirit. That's the best!
On a different note, I remember a quote by Andrew a few weeks ago regarding Nelson having the biggest back he has ever seen. Since then I have been trying to get a good visual of Nelson standing next to normal sized people. I finally had the chance yesterday as I was at the game and could see the colts sideline pretty closely. I saw him standing next to support personnel a couple of times and that dude's torso is ginormous. You couple that with a mentality of destroying the oppositions.....Can't imagine that coming at me across the line. |
