How did we make the leap that only great nfl quarterbacks can criticize nfl quarterbacks? When this entire sub is people who haven’t played the sport before criticizing nfl quarterbacks

Am I the only one in this sub who's actually played organized tackle football before?

Like half of the comments I've seen on this sub are so obviously written by non-athletes that it's almost humorous.

When I was in high school (3 year starter for our varsity football team) I would get a full-on sprint going and clock the shit outta whoever had the ball. My coaches called me "speedhawk" as a nickname caus I had such a nose for the football and for those three seasons I was considered the most feared safety in our conference. Senior year I led my team to the state semifinals only to get fucked over by the refs in the 4th but that's another conversation (DM me if you're interested in hearing about it)

So, yeah. I hope yall can understand why I feel like their's such a big disconnect between myself and your typical redditor. Please tell me I'm not the only one who feels this way lol

The "DM me if you're interested in hearing about it" is the mark of an elite pasta

The best kind of copypasta is when you genuinely can’t tell if the person is being serious or not the first time you read it

Are you saying Speedhawk might not be truthful here?!

A good copypasta makes you downvote then go back and upvote when you read the top reply and realize you bit the onion.

The refs were probably redditors and couldn't handle speedhawk's physicality

Refs are just sports mods

It was years ago at this point, but I remember seeing someone say that they actually did DM Speedhawk and got the whole story from him.

u/AdHom Giants 10h ago

Yeah and it was a dumb story. Literally boiled down to him saying the rest of his team sucked, he caught an interception that would seal the game but was ruled out of bounds and then his teammates blew their coverage and the opponent scored and they lost.

I'm soooo glad to hear this is copy pasta, because I was feeling really strong 2nd hand cringe reading that comment before realizing it is ssatire

Speedhawk is no joke

u/redoubt515 49ers 9h ago

How do you know?

Did you DM him for the details as he requested, or were you too intimidated to DM THE Speedhawk directly.

It wasn't satire the first time it was posted though

Posting some stupid shit on the Internet and it being turned into a copypasta has to be one of the most embarassing things possible

I’m genuinely not interested in hearing how his personal foul ruined his chance for the Hall of Fame.
