OMFG I WILL NOT SUPPORT THIS THUG! HE LISTENS TO TUPAC AND THROW GANG SIGNS AT FRAT PARTIES.....
Anyways,
For those of you still in denial watch this video and watch it good. Clowney is not a elite talent as you think, he is a hyped player and that's it. The 'third best'
Tackle in this draft man handled Clowney all game.
We aren't drafting Watkins or Clowney. Let's start being realistic please....
"Handled" Clowney? Clowney had multiple tackles for loss and at the LOS, a forced fumble, and beat Lewan for a sack but Lewan blatantly held him and was flagged for it.
On top of that, I counted another 5 plays where Clowney beat Lewan but because Lewan held him or Michigan QB's got rid of the ball quickly/scrambled or for another reason, Clowney didn't get the sack.
I didn't count running plays either in that tally, Clowney worked Lewan over in the run game. Lewan could not stay in front of him.
Not to mention the amount of help Lewan got. They gave him the LG or TE to double Clowney on a number of occasions in that game. And something else worth pointing out, Lewan has a real tendency to grab the defender's facemask.
"Handled" him? Nope. Not even close. And I'll be happy to post picture evidence if you doubt me on any of this. Just ask.
BTW, for those wondering, on the play where Clowney forced the fumble...he wasn't Lewan's man. They were down blocking. He was the TE's man but SC ran a slant stunt with Clowney on the play so instead of attacking the C gap as he usually does, he attacked the B gap which made it impossible for the TE to reach him on the play.
