Seems like to me we witnessed something special last Saturday. I suppose I should say somebody special really coming into his own. 

 

I think this tackle on the Wisconsin WR should be named, 'The Hit'!  We have 'The Pick' and I would add this to the common language Duck fans use, maybe not as important, but it was a just wow moment.

 

Matayo is a sophomore who is taking over games. My take he is becoming one of the greats right before our eyes. This instagram reel from his father really highlights just how impactful this guy is as a sophomore!

 

He is on his way to becoming the MVP if his play continues on this track.

"Young Concrete". 👍 Gotta Love It!

 

One "concrete wall" you Ain't going to run through for "the Coach".  You can try!....but *see above!

 

You have been warned.  😉

The write up Big Dave gives to the Oregon program is very nice and will probably bring us rewards down the road.

Yes, The Hit should definitely be featured on the big screens at Autzen, right up there with The Pick!

I completely agree that Matayo is starting to take over games.  That hit was awesome!!

 

The awareness of the tipped ball that he picked to end the game was fantastic.  He caught that almost over his shoulder.  

 

He is going to have a fantastic NFL career (can't say the same for his brother). 

 

I would not at all be surprised if there is an offensive play call with his name on it.

I agree that Matayo is improving extremely fast and is becoming an amazing talent. He had a great game and is having a great season.

 

But, "The Pick" was program altering. It needs to stand out as such. Not, just be a spot on a highlight reel.

 

In my opinion. This "Hit" as great as it was... will never have the same impact as "The Pick".

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn’t Mayato considered last year to help out at tightend?
