Chuck Pagano," WTF, man. Why did you audible out of YOUR play?!" Pat MacAfee, "Polmalive was in the C Gap ready to send me into concussion protocol." Chuck, "Good call, kid. You just lived to fight another day."
For those of you that don't understand the context: The Colts had a fake FG play where Pat would run it to the left IF they were within 7 yards and on the left hash, because the C-Gap was "100% always open". He was excited to be getting his first TD, it was about to go down, and the team was hyped. But for SOME REASON, Troy Polamalu decided to hop into the C-Gap as Pat was giving his cadence, which obviously (and rightfully so) scared the shit out of him. So he made the right decision for his future and changed the play, although he never forgot how TP ruined his dream.
thank you bro. i kinda put 2 & 2 together but i wanted to know exactly what happened. theres so many different scenarios that coulda brought em to this moment, but you filled in all the gaps of my mental process. now can you explain what is the c gap & why its called that. im pretty versed in american football, well more than the average joe, but not an expert. i know all the basic fundamentals & then some. but all these advanced terms & certain play calls are foreign to me. so i try to learn every chance i get. appreciate your knowledge & input.
@@furmanparton6740 thank you for the knowledge. now i understand a lot of shit that i didnt before just off of that. now, is anyone allowed to line up in the c gap without getting an illegal formation call or just certain positions?
@@Thunder_editz_NFL oh no doubt they were titans as well. The entire team; especially D, was absolutely supreme in that era. But Polamalu somehow stood above them all as this ELECTRIC playmaker One of those players who makes you feel that deep dread in your gut if your team is trying to drive down field against him
@@cald1421 oh yeah for sure he was one of the smartest nfl players of all time it was always fun to watch him and peyton manning go at each others throats cause they would just make audables from what the other did it was crazy
Him grabbing him by the collar did not look like a “good job, what did you see” 😂 it was more like a “goddammit Mcafee, we’ve been practicing this fucking play for weeks and audible out of it, why??”
"What did I see?! Just Palamaloo going right in the goddamn C gap" The amount of betrayal in his voice, you can really tell he hasn't forgotten the tragic occasion.
It sucks that Pat's own overexcitment about the "field goal" was what gave Troy that hunch to go to the c Gap. Troy was just one of a kind and a constant student of the game. Always finding ways to ruin your chances every week when he was on the field..
FURTHER CONTEXT FROM TP'S SIDE: The Steelers had already talked about needing to get a couple plays on film that they can use for later training and strategizing, reforming, etc., and at the LAST SECOND, Troy himself walked up to the coach on the sideline and reminded him about what they'd talked about before the game and that this was a great opportunity to get "X" play on film (whatever they called it lol) because Adam V isn't going to miss a 7 yard field goal, we might as well use this scenario to get the play on film. LOL!! So the coach agreed and Troy ran out there and took the C Gap straight away from Pat and his touchdown dream. IT WAS JUST A COINCIDENCE LOL!!
35 at tha freekin ½.. combo of great D and O. We Steeler fans will probably NVR see a team come close to those when we had Ben, Bettis Troy, Harrison.. 😞
Every thought you've ever had has been "rent free"...that's how thinking works...try it sometime 😂 Pat was describing a specific play that had a lot to do with Troy's actions. Should he have charged Troy rent for being in the story? Or just never spoken about the past again, so as to not seem obsessed? Wouldn't that then make him seem "butthurt" about what Troy did on the play though? What a silly comment. By your logic, nobody should ever talk about anything. Nice contribution to the convo there bozo 😂
They had palamaloo on the pod later pat asked him why he was in the c gap. He said I seen you the holder pretty much skipping on the field with a big smile. So I knew something was up. Pat has no poker face
Pat is brilliant for this. I never understood how so many QB,s seemed to not be able to notice Polamalu with all that hair flying around like a flag. Man was a beast.
TP in the C gap would be INSANE to test out. Its usually open, unless fuckin head and shoulders himself is there. Prolly smiling from ear to ear too. Just nodding that head. Hair bouncing all crazy. Like hell nah, we gotta kick this shit. 😅
Even Pat knows Troy is the Goat Safety. I do not want to hear the Ed reed talk. Ed was great in coverage but troy was great at almost everything like being in the right place at the right time.

😂😂😂😂
💀💀💀
😂I mean I don't think I would want to hit the C-Gap with "palammaloo" standing there either 😂
Winner
Great line!
When I first heard this story 4-5 years ago, I almost died laughing. The palamaloo got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i still get a good laugh.. even if i heard this story 2 days ago.
Still makes me laugh. What's your see... POLAMALU!!!!!
Pallamaloo im fukn dead…I had to play it back like who tf is he talkin about
It’s from the updated version of ‘Steelers are going to the Super Bowl’…when they beat the Seahawks in 06.
That was one of the best parts of the story. As the story went on, Polamalu's name got increasingly more ridiculous.
I had to take second watch
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Someone took the old Muppets Mahna Mahna song to Pallamaloo it's Polamalu.
Chuck Pagano," WTF, man. Why did you audible out of YOUR play?!"
Pat MacAfee, "Polmalive was in the C Gap ready to send me into concussion protocol."

Not the soap, most underrated comment😂😂😂😂

Who said that lol

Thx bro. I rewatched like 8 times and was like... He held it... Idk what's so special
Polamalu said the reason he went in the c gap was because Mcafee was way too excited to be kicking a field goal and he knew something was up

“What’d I see??? Pa-llama-loo!” Lmao. Yeah Polamalu had this effect on people. The mane and ferocity of a lion. His presence WAS the defense.
it's a stupid name and that is exactly how 90% of people would pronounce it if they didn't know the weird way it was "supposed" to be pronounced
Did Pat actually EVER get a TD?
not exactly cause during that time there was another monster on that defense james harrison and there was also brett kiesel and others

Not REALLY
He can’t even pronounce names correctly

Why? Survival and 6months growth! That was polamaLoo in the C-gap!

Looked to me like he realized Pat set aside his ego and desires by changing the play. That's a "Good job, son" if I've ever seen one.
@@chilboswaggins5500 he also feared for his life 😅 (it's worth hearing the entire story where this audio was taken from, it was great)

Lol the video the cherry on top. The damn hand motions as he saying “we have to kick the ball” Pat is the man
It sucks that Pat's own overexcitment about the "field goal" was what gave Troy that hunch to go to the c Gap. Troy was just one of a kind and a constant student of the game. Always finding ways to ruin your chances every week when he was on the field..
His football IQ is/was fucking ridiculous...On the field he was an absolute apex predator
Exactly, it's what we call a smart football player

Unfortunately that golden team coincided with the beginning of ultra scripted teams like the Cheatriots.

This is literally one of my favorite sports stories. I've heard it 50 times, and I'll listen to it every time it's on
Pat versus the C-gap, name a better storyline
Back when we used to score 35 in a half
You're a natural-born performer.
Pat badically said: "If we fail, he's gonna fucking kill me."
I tell ya what; that rifle has some darn nice curves attached to it.
This story never gets old lmfao 🤣
PALAMALOO 😂😂😂 He's speaking bout Troy. "I be on that bullshit," Polamalu
Ah yes, Troy Puhlahmahloo
Blasphemous

First of all, you don’t make much sense second of all do you think you’re one of the people there?

😂😂😂😂
Pat McAfee and Rob Gronkowski are what happen when CTE hits before they get to the NFL.
Pat sound like Woody off toy story
The story doesn’t even make sense though why would you run a fake fg down 18, you would want to make it a 2 possession game?
Dude was so frazzled that he couldn't even pronounce his name
"POLLAHMALOO" love McAfee for that.I believe that's really how he thought it was pronounced.
TP in the C gap would be INSANE to test out. Its usually open, unless fuckin head and shoulders himself is there. Prolly smiling from ear to ear too. Just nodding that head. Hair bouncing all crazy. Like hell nah, we gotta kick this shit. 😅
He seen the Grim Reaper and wanted to preserve the rest of his playing career
That was definitely the CTE gap if he would have ran a fake to that side 😂😂
