No athlete in the history of mankind could instantly make a 3-foot backwards jump from running forward--it completely defies the laws of physics.

The Force is Strong with this one. Sorry couldn't help but bust that out.

what gets me going is when a LB/DL "hover jumps" and palms a bullet pass like he catching a frisbee. atleast bobble the damn thing, its a football going at a high rate of speed, not a marshmallow

Just watched a DT who was being blocked, a LB in a spy position, another LB in the Zone, and a Safety in a Zone... all pretty much in a line about 5 yards apart, all jump/hover the instant I passed the ball at the exact same moment.

The LB in zone got the knockdown...
