Does it happen? Can it happen? My intention was to post gifs exactly as described above. Surely in the 57 snaps Seattle played on offense against the Rams in Week 15, Seattle’s line would get the better of Donald once. This was a bit of a down year for the dude. He did turn 30. But apart from one snap the best I could find were some inglorious stalemates—many, of course. Even the best pass rushers achieve no more than a draw on most snaps.
Donald plays so many snaps that sometimes he coasts. Many snaps he’s largely ineffectual defending the run—little but a hat-on-a-hat guy.
