Love to see this. This is what we rarely get to see while watching the game bc we usually have our eyes on the ball. Respect to all these men holding it down
@@jimmypenman yea, they are both amazing but.. Aaron Donald has a chance to be the best defensive linemen ever. Or atleast one with the most DPoY awards
@@jimmypenman You act like doubling him is a choice like DB's covering WRs. Double teaming interior lineman happens on just about every play in the NFL, whether it be Donald or some no name 340 pound rookie DT. When you are double teamed as a D-lineman, you have a role. To prevent one of those guys from breaking off and going to the next level. The DT essentially becomes a blocker for the linebackers to make a play. Donald does that every time he is double teamed. That's what makes him really stand apart, he is even able to split the blockers and still make a play or wreck havoc in the backfield. But just simply saying he is double teamed every play doesn't even begin to dive into the intricacies of blocking or playing D-line. Its as much a mental game as it is a physical one. It is Nelson's role to simply prevent the assigned player from making a play, and he did his job well. Whether it be by himself or with a Center or Tackle, the job gets done.

@@user-wt8im2ro1p in what world? Must Donald get a sack per play to win the matchup? I can see an argument for a stalemate. There is NO argument that Nelson won the matchup. period.
Yeah people talk like this without thinking. TJ drops in to coverage on a large percentage of plays and he still ends up getting better numbers than AD how is that possible.
@@DiemosinplaysMC AD is double teamed on 70% of his plays and rushed from the inside. TJ is doubled 15% and rushes outside. His numbers better be twice as good to compare them with AD‘s.
@@kojomofi exactly! Why do Steelers fans forget this? Of course and Edge Rusher is gonna have better numbers than a DT. The fact that their numbers are comparable is amazing.
I love to watch d line and o line battles on film because normally you’re paying attention to the playmakers during the game. But when you watch the trenches you see the real game of might taking place and it’s pretty brutal to see how these big guys battle all game with no clout compared to the other positions.
The fact that the moment Aaron Donald moved away from Quenton Nelson and chaos ensues shows how good Quenton is compared to his peers. He's on tier with AD
They dont wanna say it, but Q got the best of AD whenever his hands touched him. AD killed literally every other linemen, but Q killed him. Just facts. Double team or not when they came in contact with eachother Q came out on top most of the time. A dominate amount of time at that.
Feel bad for Quenton having two horror match ups right out of the gate after recovering from injury, but that's professional football, nobody's going to just roll over and take it easy on you.
Colts were smart, they didn't leave Quenton by himself with Donald. The best offensive linemen with inside help and Donald is still generating pressure. Both players are absolute monsters.
@@user-wt8im2ro1p I'm a Colts fan and he didn't run from it. He went were he was directed to go. He went where he could impact the game the most. They won this game partly because Donald was wrecking the game over the right side.

@@willbrench924 Not really. Donald kept getting hits, pressures, and QB hits. It was only when he lined up elsewhere he got a sack. You can argue both players did really well and impacted their team.
@@mustysmells817 remember that q was dealing with a foot injury while lining up against the best dt in the game. no offence to donald but q won that matchup. injured and didnt allow a single sack or tackle for loss. his lowest pff rated game ever and he didnt even allow a tackle for loss. just think about how crazy that is. that just proves how amazing q is. ppl are using pressures and qb hits to argue that he lost the matchup. thats absurd. if any other lineman held aaron donald to zero sacks or tackles for losses while dealing with a foot injury they would get so much praise. cut q some slack.
He knows how to approach every move. Like he said, he’s got a counter move for everything. It took Q a couple reps to realize he had to counter the counter. That video gave me so much more respect for Aaron Donald. Walking Hall of Famer.
If they were to call every holding play against Aaron Donald, he'd rack up at least 5 sacks, 5 fumbles and 10 tackles for loss each game, and that's a conservative estimate.
They would have to call the holds AD commits too... Watch his technique, he likes to grab and pull O-lineman down... That's Defensive Holding but he's slick about it and it's hard to catch in the trenches plus he's a star you know how that works..
@@beatzfrommarzz It's not. Holding is when you're trying to prevent someone from passing you - a linemen to make a block further down the field or to allow another d-lineman to get around etc, and it's usually also if you grab their padding etc. What AD does is part of the game, it certainly isn't holding.
I could not imagine life without Big Q.... Man's gonna do to O-Line what Deion Sanders did for Cornerback.... He's gonna make kids aspire to be the next Quenton Nelson.... And that's super cool.

@@gamesare2easy4me63 really🤔 name them 🤔🤔& please only name them if they went one on one the whole game with Donald if not thank for proving this man point 🤣
People talk about how valuable Donald is on his own, but think about what he does for his team too. Imagine as a coach, at any point in the game you can send a late blitzer to create 1v1s, and you know that your DEFENSIVE TACKLE, not even your defensive end (which is the line position most known winning 1v1s) is 100% going to win his 1v1, you have so much defensive freedom in playcalling.
Man that's a great matchup Crazy that you can see how much power that Donald has on that rep he comes in with the bull on Nelson, but Nelson has such a big anchor that he could still anchor it down really quick
They would have to call it on both sides because its very well known that donald likes to grab and pull lineman down which is defensive holding but he doesn't get called for bc he's good at it.. You are also seeing this in slow motion, the refs are not so they don't catch a lot of stuff in the trenches...
Closest thing to LT since LT. Behold the brilliance folks. It's rare. I feel privileged to have seen both. Ironically Q wears LT's number. lol. Q is a superstar too, don't sleep.
Been dying for this matchup and boy did it DELIVER so good love seeing line play and Quinton battl all day and deserves his salute but man aron Donald is unblockable
You know holding can be called every single play in a game of football right? The refs only call the most egregious calls of it at this point otherwise you would never see a play completed.
In all fairness this wasn't AD vs Nelson, this was AD versus the entire Colts Offensive line.. In truth Donald will most likely never win defensive player of the year honors again because he just isn't getting that production on sacks and stops behind the line anymore due to him being double teamed.. Fortunately all this double teaming should mean opportunities for other Rams defensive players.
@@reviews.de.aparelhos lmao my guy at the 2 min mark Q locks him up all on his own then the next play blocks his guy and secures a block on Donald Donald is a beast but I’m picking Big Q over him for best lineman and even then there’s still Martin
Im a UK NFL fan - been a Bears fan since the NFL was first televised here in 1985/86. Im still only a novice when it comes to analysing the game - I know rugby much better - but I can see similarities in the 2 sports today in that the 'big guys' are being recognised as some of the most valuable and highly paid in the sport. QBs (in rugby they are fly haves) will always get the most but without a great O-line or D-line you cant compete
@@beatzfrommarzz This Young Man Obviously does know that the rams run a 3-4 or a 3-3-5 defensive sometimes pretty much what I’m saying is that sometimes there will be only 3 people on the defensive line which means there a 3v5 which means someone is getting double even in a 4-4 if he is at nose guard 9/10 you are going to get double teamed man said use some common sense🤦🏽♂️😂.
Love this breakdown. Once you slow it down, you see what Aaron Donald goes through and how truly dominate he is. He will have that 4th DFP in no time....
I love Nelson but Aaron Donald makes him look like an average NFL lineman. I bet this was the 1st game in Nelson career he needed help . That's a compliment to AD#99
No way. Q lost nearly all 1 on 1 battles. Donald had 5 TFL, and whiffed 2 free sacks. Donald was double teamed all game and still caused absolute havoc. Not to mention donald hit wentz 3 times as well.
@@evanchristensen1334 those 3 times weren't Q fault. And Donald struggled everytime except for like once in the matchup against Q. The tackles for loss weren't Q's fault. I don't give a crap about Donald's stats in this game unless they relate to Quenton Nelson

Yeah but Donald is getting double team.... I saw a plY yesterday where he was triple teamed...let's see Nelson go up against him one and one for a whole Game!
How can you call it a draw when Nelson had to have help no offensive lineman can handle Donald one-on-one if you think they can name them and I mean the whole game not just for a play

99 % of the time ( that he did ) he had help to do it , one on one AD is unblockable
@@reviews.de.aparelhos lmao my guy at the 2 min mark Q locks him up all on his own then the next play blocks his guy and secures a block on Donald
Donald is a beast but I’m picking Big Q over him for best lineman and even then there’s still Martin
Im a UK NFL fan - been a Bears fan since the NFL was first televised here in 1985/86. Im still only a novice when it comes to analysing the game - I know rugby much better - but I can see similarities in the 2 sports today in that the 'big guys' are being recognised as some of the most valuable and highly paid in the sport. QBs (in rugby they are fly haves) will always get the most but without a great O-line or D-line you cant compete
the 2 best players in the league. bar none
Quenton Nelson and Aaron Donald are among the best of all time at their positions.
Mans was getting doubled and triple teamed the entire time😂
🙄🙄🙄🙄 Four D-lineman... Five O-Lineman.... Do the math..... Use some common sense....🙄🙄
@@beatzfrommarzz This Young Man Obviously does know that the rams run a 3-4 or a 3-3-5 defensive sometimes pretty much what I’m saying is that sometimes there will be only 3 people on the defensive line which means there a 3v5 which means someone is getting double even in a 4-4 if he is at nose guard 9/10 you are going to get double teamed man said use some common sense🤦🏽♂️😂.
@@beatzfrommarzz Great Debate💯
Watching these 2 is a form of art
Get it Right!! AD is mostly DOUBLE TEAMED MOST OF THE TIME. NOT 1 on 1!!💯
Love this breakdown. Once you slow it down, you see what Aaron Donald goes through and how truly dominate he is. He will have that 4th DFP in no time....

GOATS
I love Nelson but Aaron Donald makes him look like an average NFL lineman. I bet this was the 1st game in Nelson career he needed help . That's a compliment to AD#99
its ok. There is no human alive blocking AD 1 on 1. He's too strong, too quick, and has great leverage cause of his height.
did you even watch, I noticed Q was neutralizing him most of the game. AD sloped by a couple times, but that happens against anybody
How grabbing a guy by his neck as he runs past you isn't a textbook holding call I'll never know
The refs were pretty sloppy this game, I saw several holding calls against the defense that weren't called
if a d-lineman uses a rip move, holding isn't called.
@@heyboygeorge6359 hmmm pretty sure that's not true at all bud. But good try
@@CxDubxU lol it's literally in the NFL rulebook
@@heyboygeorge6359 bruh I've seen it flagged before plenty of times. You might wanna actually go read it
Senior Bowl matchup between Donald and Zack Martin was brutal.
AD got held so much this game
For all of you that say how didn’t the colts score in the red zone. It’s because of 99. Film doesn’t lie
th-cam.com/video/RaHw6ElcHD0/w-d-xo.html
Lol they double Donald every play, this is not Aaron Donald vs. Quentin Nelson, he would have eaten Nelson alive if it were 1 on 1
So great to see someone go toe to toe with Donald
I think Quenton Nelson won this matchup. Rams might have won the game but it would've been way worse with anybody but Big Quenton Nelson
No way. Q lost nearly all 1 on 1 battles. Donald had 5 TFL, and whiffed 2 free sacks. Donald was double teamed all game and still caused absolute havoc. Not to mention donald hit wentz 3 times as well.
@@evanchristensen1334 those 3 times weren't Q fault. And Donald struggled everytime except for like once in the matchup against Q. The tackles for loss weren't Q's fault. I don't give a crap about Donald's stats in this game unless they relate to Quenton Nelson
@@StealthOx49 there was maybe 2-4 times it was a one on one and went either way. Other than that it was nelson double teaming AD. The colts oline did not play well. Hurt his qb big time. Literally
Literally the Clash of the Titans!
People are quick to forget that Zack Martin was the only Oline to consistently handle Donald.
Stop it please. Cowboy fans try to get a win by any means possible.
@@kenpaacchi What? Zack Martin is better than Big Q lmao
@@kenpaacchi go and watch some tape than come talk to me. Cowboys haters will always find something to discredit any cowboys players.
This is why I love the Offensive and defensive line.
th-cam.com/video/RaHw6ElcHD0/w-d-xo.html
Best offensive lineman? I don’t see Zack Martin out there?
That’s because he’s on the cowboys this isn’t 2016 buddy boy
Zack Martin hasn't been the best Guard ever since Quenton Nelson came into the league.
@@jnastyyeet4627 Martin > Nelson facts over feelings
Only cowboy fans think it’s a fact. Everyone else knows Nelson trumps zachary in every stat
@@jnastyyeet4627 Who tf is Zachary bro? Martin has been better longer deal with it son
3:44 look at Carson Wentz's right ankle almost snap in half😱🤯🥶
Honestly the only ‘real’ football left being played is in the tremches
If there is no holding call on the OL against Donald in any game, then the Refs are watching a different game
Aron won that battle nuff said
Big Q is also coming off an injury
Donald won the battle against everyone else. He never got by big Q
@@bradenhouser4805 so is Aaron donald lets not forget he hurt his ribs last season so miss me with that
@@saucyissus6798 🤣🤣🤡 what are you talking about you can't sit here and tell me that dude has stopped Donald every time they play he holds Donald or he always has to have help with a double team if he is better than AD then why can't he go 1 on 1
@@FightOnSC_youlllikethis every pass rusher gets held. There is a reason qb throw it in under 5 seconds and it's because the oline is almost always at a disadvantage
This beat is sick bro.i'll listen to this all day
This have the wrong title. Am seeing double team against Donald. This ain't a one v one.
*footnote* Nelson was hurt this game. I want to see a rematch healthy all pro on healthy all pro

Look at l.j with the win, now you know behind that great oline you Can get it done, congrats
Surprised he didn't mention all the holding calls QN had on Donald lol. Watch all 22, you'll see.
i saw a couple & at least one block in the back in this video during "nelson highlights"
That isn’t Zack Martin change the title
Nelson>Martin

@@EduardoLopez-pk2xz u must be a cowboys fan.
Wirfs over both
Hahaha lame
This is the sports analysis that we need from Sports networks...not loud and boisterous opinions from hosts
I'ma call a draw. There were plays where Nelson locked Donald, but there were also plays where donald got in. Only problem is Carson Wentz got the ball away in time
Donald completely destroyed everyone else lol
Yeah but Donald is getting double team.... I saw a plY yesterday where he was triple teamed...let's see Nelson go up against him one and one for a whole Game!
How can you call it a draw when Nelson had to have help no offensive lineman can handle Donald one-on-one if you think they can name them and I mean the whole game not just for a play
Nelson tried blindsiding Donald while he was engaged with the center like he did no91 for the rams & he couldn't budge him lmao Nelson can hold Donald jock strap, that's it.
I thought Donald was getting held majority of the time.
Even better that big q is coming off an injury just like the rest of the whole oline
He was bro if you really pay attention you'll see every game they hold Aaron donald
You thought right.
@@bradenhouser4805 so what? Does that mean if he wasn’t injured he wasn’t going to hold? Don’t care if Nelson was 100 percent it was going to be the same results of him holding. Nelson is a beast but Donald is generational talent.
@@anthonysavage7309 Shaq Mason of the Patriots whooped him all game long in the Rams Patriots Superbowl. 1 on 1 all game long. At 6'1 315lbs Mason is a very tough matchup for Donald. Donald was a no show in that game. Mason took his bread
keep up the nelson tapes my fav player not just oline hes must watch oline for sure
Zack martin is the best offensive lineman
AD is so smart and very technical and mixed up that brute strength of his. very dangerous player 99 club
This is like unstoppable force vs unmovable object. Insane
th-cam.com/video/RaHw6ElcHD0/w-d-xo.html
He was making it tough for Nelson, moved away and made life hell, shows how great Nelson is. Good lord two dogs!
3:36 you can tell me that jack doyle wasn’t open for the 1st on 3rd and five that’s the ball game right there wentz would of also avoided being hurt
Nice video. Good breakdowns
These are two guys that deserve a SB
5:32 QN didn't get a piece he turned around and grabbed AD.
