Kareem Jackson Jersey , 1990.Monday Night Football.Denver Broncos hosting the Kansas City Chiefs and its “Nigerian Nightmare.”Need I say more?Of course not. Because when a single football play has its own celebrated anniversary, you already know it was a special play.And if you’re any kind of Broncos fan - whether you watched it live or not - you know this play.It’s the play that could be used in every textbook to demonstrate Newton’s first law of motion: Every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force - aka, Steve Atwater.In fact, the “hit heard round the world” is so iconic that many people when they first meet the man behind it - Broncos safety Steve Atwater - often mention immediately, “oh Jeff Heuerman Jersey , you’re the guy who hit Christian Okoye!” “It’s kinda cool,” Atwater admitted. “I would imagine it’s not as cool for Christian as it is for me, but...that’s what football is sometimes.”Atwater and his team mentor Dennis Smith had watched film on Okoye the week before the game, and Smith told the protog茅 that the key was to hit Okoye “straight up” in order to bring him down.“I saw the hole open, and I hit it full speed Shane Ray Jersey , and I believe Christian was running full speed too, and fortunately...ahhh...I got him!” Atwater recalled this past season. “Bam! I just kinda lowered the shoulder, and boom! That was it.”That was definitely it.Come to think of it...that hit is also the perfect example of Newton’s third law as well: “For every action (force) in nature, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” Peyton Manning didn’t take a job in the booth this offseason, but he was willing to engage in a little analysis during a visit to the Broncos facility on Thursday.Manning’s history with new head coach Vic Fangio dates back to when Fangio was on the Saints staff and Manning’s father Archie was working as a broadcaster for the team. He faced a Panthers defense run by Fangio in his rookie season and then practiced against him for three years when Fangio became the Colts defensive coordinator.Manning said Fangio “hasn’t changed one bit” since those days and believes that’s a good thing for the Broncos.“We need to get back to playing solid Justin Simmons Jersey , fundamental football around here,” Fangio said, via Nicki Jhabvala of TheAthletic.com. “That’s what wins games. That’s kind of been the core of what the Denver Broncos have been about and I think Vic will bring that to Denver.”Manning added that he thinks Fangio can “be a great leader of the entire team” despite spending his entire career as a defensive assistant coach and that prediction will be put to the test in the coming months.
