I remember watching that play as it happened. I always saw it more as an example of poor tackling. Wrap him up!

2. Oh, so let's say the saints are just bad at tackling, instead of saying lynch is just that good...
3. you can't "wrap him up," if you never get close enough... if he waits til the perfect moment between your steps, when you're airborne and weightless, and then does a one-hand pushup on your face (or shoulder, whatever), at the farthest accessible point from your body's center of gravity, using your own momentum against you, flinging you yards away from him, and without even losing a step. I mean come on, he tossed that guy like 3-4 yards, one-handed. That was some Tai-Chi ****. It's pretty rare to see anyone in the NFL pull off that kind of maneuver... but lynch makes it look automatic.
