reid forgetting about vick is funny
Lol when he said I've never had a lefty, my jaw dropped, I was like uhhhh MICHAEL VICK, EAGLES
Yeah that was hilarious
"oh yeah i had mike vick" the absolute biggest back pocket, forgotten about, saved for later, flex of all time.
Walrus’ have notoriously short memories
Vick was mediocre to slightly above average most of his career
Lefty here, Godspeed to Tua. We lefties salute you!
Now I’m gonna subtlety root for tua honestly.
Amen
Tua's actually right handed but his dad taught him to throw with his left. Go figure 🙅♂️
As a lefty im kinda sad
@@micarnxl makes you think
Would he be better with his dominant hand? 🤷
Freddie Kitchens - *Giants Tight End Coach*
Bill O’Brien *Former Texans Head Coach*
😭😭😭
AND wearing a Browns hat 🤣🤣💀💀💀
Nicest way possible, lol
Did freddie leave his neck in Cleveland
I think they recorded this awhile ago (pre COVID )
@@MatthewV114 yeah at the start it said 2019
If you can throw a ball hard with your left hand, you become a pitcher.
found my new career
Why? I really have no idea
@@ohms2754 because a Lefty pitcher standing at the mound can see first base in front of his face as opposed to behind his back. This makes it much easier for the pitcher to notice and pick off stealing runners.
@@grampo1426 damn you learn something new everyday Preciate this info

i never knew Kershaw and Stafford were homies as kids
Anytime Kershaw starts it feels like the broadcast is obligated to mention it lol.
This has gotta be sarcasm lmao
They mention it every time
Yeah he was claytons catcher and Clayton was at Stanffords center, true story
yep, Highland Park buddies. That's a very rich/wealthy community in Dallas.
Left-Handed Power Rankings 2020:
3. Jarvis Landry
2. Tua Tagovailoa
1. Jon Bois
Cool, don’t care
If you don't care then why are you commenting
That's pretty good
Who is Jon bios?
@@Elpilotopro he makes awesome sports documentaries
Fun fact Tua Tagovailoa IS NOT left handed, he is actually right handed but his Left Handed dad taught him how to throw left handed so he is right handed but throws with his left, its a weird but cool fact
ok and? this abt people who threw left handed
@@poopjew3649 did I say the video was wrong? No, im just saying something not alot of people knew about Tua
Like Nadal
Cowwzzz Vlogs Yes Tua did a interview and he mentioned this.
Like Lebron James, he’s actually left handed but shoots with his right
And then Tua Tagovailoa became the Dolphins starting QB
Let’s see if he’s ready
For no damn reason
And then you woke up
@nicolas bellon do you honestly think they have enough talent to win a superbowl this year?
@nicolas bellon well then, i guess it’s good to dream big
They have never been able to get the throwing animation right in madden for left handed QBs
I noticed that too! It always looks unnatural every time my guy throws. Almost like the ball gets detached from the hand before it’s even released
@lego yoda lmao true
@lego yoda what should they use
For real it looks like my right handed self trying to throw with my left super awkward and clunky
did u write my name in the deathnote
WHY DID THEY DO KELLEN MOORE LIKE THAT?? 😂😂🤣
KAEP good?😂
@KAEP he's not even good at that lol
@KAEP not at the NFL level
But 50-3 in college is something innit
Haha for real. He threw for like 450 yards in that Washington game!
Because he was trash in the NFL 😂
Andy Reid killed me at 4:45 "I don't think I've had a lefty...oh wait I had Michael Vick" 😂😂
As a left handed QB this video made me wish my career lasted past flag football
In high school we had 3 QBs and all 3 were left handed. What are the odds?
@@DillonDank literally 1 in a million
@@rogeliomora417 1 in a thousand dumbo
@@mobcaptain601 I was using hyperbole dumbo
As a lefty Youth QB ever thing u talked about was true because the same thing happened how offenses r right handed. And that song at the end was really good
University of Utah has a spring football game where they have an alumni flag football game beforehand. Watching Scott Mitchell throw the ball was insanely impressive even though he hadn’t been playing competitive football for a few years
Mark Brunell was mad slept on. He led some incredible jags offenses back in the late 90s
He was a poor man's Steve Young
As a lefty I’m so happy there’s a left handed qb lmao
If you can throw a ball hard with your left hand, you become a pitcher.
@@faisalkamel8087 welp Im left handed and can throw a tight spiral between 40-50 yards, Never did baseball but I sure would want to
Brett Farve to Official: "Hey do you got any left handed footballs"
😂😂😂😂😂
I work in a factory, we always send the new guy to the stock room for a left handed nut driver
He says it so casual, deadpan and nonchalant.
Has me in tears everytime I hear it 😂🤣😂
Steve Young was the best QB out of all of them. Top 10 QB in my list
top 2 for me
Mike Vick for me
Vick
@@derricklowe5517 you can’t be serious...young, stabler, and boomer were all significantly better QBs than Vick
God in heaven I miss John Madden!
You know John madden is still alive right
@@jojokesnow1712 OFC I love the guy. But who hears or sees him nowdays?
th-cam.com/channels/MslgKvbO7OjGy7HPlX5yFw.html
@@jojokesnow1712 he may have meant he misses having John in the booth
@@shagdk wow a self promoter
3:48
Reid: I don't think I met a lefty
Vick rage quit the chat
Reid: Wait, I had Vick
Vick: thats better
I am a lefty, am I being hunted?
yes
hide while u can
You may not be here much longer runwhile theirs time
Same i am 2
We’re going extinct
2:18 lmaoo they wrong for that
love that slick edit from 0:33 - 1:25 NFL films always churning out good content!
Tony Dungy might have a point
I was a lefty QB on my JV, team, yea it’s just high school JV haha whatever, but my teammates always said my deep throws had more distance in them than what they initially looked like. I had around 4-5, 40-45 yard bombs that went for TDs. Was backup on varsity.
Fun times but can’t dwell on them, have to look toward the present and future.
When Tua got drafted... As a lefty i cheered. As a steelers fan i hope nothing but the best. Bring joy to us lefties!! Im def in need of a jersey now that hes starting
The best pass rusher is most often put in the Right End position.
So, some might see an advantage in that, but for a leftie, it means your seeing and 'feeling' the rush sooner.
That's why Left End's like Trace Armstrong get so many hurries.
I’m at a cross roads cos I was left handed and when I was playing QB I obviously threw left handed but my receivers couldn’t catch my passes and since being left handed was so rare anyways my grandpa who taught me everything ik about football taught me how to be right handed. So now I’m both but I prefer to use my right cos it’s easier on everyone else😂
Bruh how difficult was it to switch
@@kfcgotfurniture5481 it was hard at 1st but I think I was already a lil but ambidextrous so it wasn’t as hard as my grandpa and me had thought. But you just have to keep practicing every chance you get
Why are they talking to Freddie "cheesecake factory" Kitchens? 🤦
Was probably the browns head coach when they interviewed him
@@brianconuel1448 it says Giants TE coach though
@@BuddhaMelffyQueen right because that’s his job now. But when this interview happened he was probably the head coach of the browns.
At alabama if you look him up the former qb u wouldn't recognize him lmao
I always assumed that because of how damn fast and hard NFL QBs can throw on top of receivers literally playing their entire life with a right handed QB, it has to be a big change for catchers to catch a ball at such a high velocity spinning the other direction
Listening to athletes speculate on physics never fails to be amusing, and yet somehow still informative.
I’m a lefty and I try to embrace it. It’s odd for the receivers but I try my best
lmfao some sort of jazz cover of the foggy dew there at the beginning? McGregors walkout song
I remember years back when Tim Tebow was a rookie, a NFL analyst said that lefty QB’s are unorthodoxed and are more difficult to train/coach
I'm ambidextrous i use my left hand for practically everything except for writing which I'm thankfull for cause I bet its annoying writing left handed
Kenny Stabler is my favorite qb too
Kellen Moore was amazing in college. Hopefully Tua revives the southpaw slingers.
Tua I wished that he had more size at least 6'4
Jared lorenzen the hefty lefty rest in peace my favorite lefty
Something should have been done about him in his youth.
I haven't followed Tuas career very closely but I do remember someone referred to him as a 'left handed drew brees' which is a Scarry thought
i remember when vick was on the steelers, our WR had trouble bc of the ball spinning the other way
I LOVE the fact that the description under Bill O’Briens name says: former texans head coach...
I love how it says bill O’Brien is a former Texans head coach
I think a lot of it boils down to how you’re taught, I’m left handed, but I was never taught to use it, despite it being much more natural
Biggest reason is it changes how your tackles block. Strongside becomes the blindside. Can't find many RT's that have the flexibility and speed to block blindside.
As a left handed QB who as a kid dreamed of playing in the NFL, this video motivates me to make my comeback 😂
i’m 17 and a lefty qb no one cares about us anymore😔
I feel personally attacked, who knew the odds were so stacked against me =(
You may have a chance as a baseball pitcher, but several other positions are off limits to you. Catcher, 2nd base, 3rd base, shortstop,
@@nrkgalt he has a good chance at 1st or pitcher though.
Left handed pitchers have longer careers 😅🎉
nfl films is so good, cant wait for the next one
NFL films are always great and well produced.
As a lefty, I love this so much. The desk part is a serious issue.
Damn, though, I wish someone had trained me to pitch!
I'm glad Tua is out there repping us Lefties.
The assertion according to David Carr is all the plays are designed to right hand side.
Hence Tua Tagovailoa is now the oddity of 96 potential quarterbacks.
Hey we have one lefty now. Tua Tagoviola
Steve Young is by far the best lefty ever imo
Better than Esiason
I'm left-handed and that's like the number one reason I clicked on this video
I legit love the song at the end
I love how when it gets to bill o brien it says “former” head coach of Texans XD
“Lefty’s are going extinct”
Shows the new rookie starting WB for the dolphins in thumbnail.
Hmm
I mean, they are if there's only one left (pun intended)
@@ZhangtheGreat Well played, sir. Well played.
You know we all got to respect Tua for living in a world where left handed quarterbacks are a rarity
Im sorry but that outro was hilarious😂 Especially the part where steve young Lost his helmet😂 Boomer Eisen in the park.😂
the song in this video is a disco remix of Sinéad O'Connor-The foggy dew which is connor mcgregors entrance song
*Laughs in Tua*
"FORMER TEXANS COACH" BRUH WHY EVEN HAVE HIM ON HERE
In high School Baseball, Kenny Stabler once struck out 16 batters to give Don Sutton his only High School loss . Stabler Averaged 29 pts a game in Basketball the same year. Was drafted by 3 MLB teams out of high school but chose football because , 'Bama
Another theory is that the best past protecting tackles are trained to play on the left side of the line, and switching them to the right side throws off their foot work.
former Texans head coach let’s go
I thought tua and Lamar were left handed
Tua is but Lamar isn’t
Lamar lol
Lol probably because sometimes Lamar looks like he's throwing with his bad hand
As a lefty poor playing QB in HS, I'm glad I enjoyed the TE Position after a talk with the coach. Had the most fun.
I got a question though. I understand it’ll be harder for the receivers to catch a left handed throw from a QB but shouldn’t it also confuse the opponent from completing an interception too??
As a lefty myself, you guys just wait.
You play collage yet?
@@r-moneys-money1232 Junior in high school💯
@@LankyWx sounds good keep playing and when your in the NFL reply back to me 😎
@@LankyWx I'll be waiting.
I thought Watson was a lefty
I like the ending song 😀👍
the song at the end lol
Tua “Am I a joke to you”
I feel bad abt boomer and other lefty's being "left out" and as for tua he was forced to throw left despite being a righty.
His father taught him to be a left hand QB
Man i love Dungee man seems like such a good guy
3:38 Greatest Head Coach of All-Time Right There
Only lefties like me know what it is like when you are writing ✍️ for a long time with a pencil and the lead gets all over your hand.
Am I the only one?
I write and draw with the paper turned, its basically 90 degree rotated to the right. I dont get smeared.
Never have i ever felt included being a lefty then right now
2:47 as a lefty I can relate
Lol I’m left-handed and when I used to play basketball I would shoot that way but I dribbled right-handed because that’s how my dad taught me. Dribbling with my left-hand now is just harder. I even gold and bat right-handed, but I bowl and throw left-handed. It’s like I just chose a different hand to be dominant in different sports.
Glad I’m a left handed quarterback
I write with my right but I throw with my left 🤷🏻♂️
Would the strategy of the QB Blind side also change between RHQB and LHQBs? That would move a lot of expensive offensive lineman out of position.
"Former Texans Head Coach" I'M DEAD!
Tua is not left handed. His dad taught him to throw left because he said he would be more accurate. So btw Tua does everything else with his right hand.
So basically can use both hands that’s gonna make him scary on the field
LeBron is left handed but he liked Michael Jordan and Jordan was right handed so he shoots right handed
@@ScaryAppul-114 Interesting.
I'm a lefty
Well here comes Michael Penix
Lefty over here. Steve young is the reason I'm a 49ers fan. I know my Montana history but steve was my dude.
Bad timing now that tua is starting
You didn’t watch the end there, did you?
did you even finish the video
Im a leftie i think the cowboys should look for me😂😂😂🤷🏽♂️
3:12 good advice RIP John Madden
The whole time I was watching this I was like “What about Tua?” And they finally mentioned him at the end
Lefty power
I know right I am left handed
I love the way they edited this
I always wanted to be ambidextrous but I am simply a right handed writer but oddly enough in many other things I am much more comfortable with my left especially boxing/kickboxing but still comfortable right handed. The weirdest one is how I get on and off a bicycle, motorcycle or anything like such as I can’t get off the right way to save my life and it was so annoying as a kid as I had to get off lefty then go back around the bike to put the kickstand down because every bike was righty set up where you have to lift your right leg and swing it over but every time I tried to do that I just couldn’t keep my balance but the lefty way I could do so easily
Bro , Mike Vick was so good in his prime🙏🏿
imagine if clayton kershaw played football??
I’m left handed and every time I throw the ball which I’m doing a lot and my teammates are always getting mad when I throw bc the spin 🤦🏻♂️ like I can’t control that. I’ve tried to learn how to throw it with my right arm too and it only went like 5 yards but with my left I can throw it 20
No try too help them learn how to catch that type of through just in case the other team has a lefty aswell.
Does the ball thrown by a right handed QB fly more also because of the direction of the force produced my the angular momentum? The right hand rule? Or is this not the case?
