"Amon-Ra is tough, he's not the fastest receivers, or the quickest or toughest but he's a football player." - Chris Collinsworth

Me and a co-worker(happens to be a fellow Lions fan far from Detroit) weren't watching but streaming the game with audio and heard this quote and just had to look at each other in the middle of a busy ass kitchen shift like what the fuck?

Cris Collinsworth is a clown.

Yes he is! 🤡🤡🤡

He isn't funny, but he dresses weird, is funny and tries really hard.

To be fair to Colinsworth, it's gotta be tough to concentrate on a Detroit WR when he spends every second in the booth thinking about how he can suck off Rodgers

That was just beyond ridiculous how it was 99% Packers, of which 90% was Rodgers. Like, that was the most blatantly bias announcers I've ever heard in my life.

The mf even managed to make a handoff to Jones about how good Rodgers is. He's a HoF-level dickrider, can't stand him

TimmahjTecmo Barry•

He was so unselfish that though. He was able to get passed his own ego and complete a running play. He’S sO aMaZiNg!!!!

We played a game where we drank everytime he said Aaron Rodgers. I'm still drunk.

“His name is AARON.”

Amon Ra is tough as nails. Like I don’t even know why he would say that. Just saying anything because he has the platform. And no, he might not be as fast as tyreek hill, but dammit he’s always fucking open. Like LITERALLY always fucking open. So he’s good and fast enough to get away from professional cornerbacks on a constant basis. That’s more than just an average “football player”

Elbit_Curt_Sedni•

He didn't want to give the Lions any credit. It was blatantly obvious.

JG-Elect•

Yeah seriously. What a hater

15
ncopp•

More than half of the NFL fanbase is hyped for the Lions, but the analysts and talking heads are like, get back in your lane trash kitties

that's why the only show i watch is PTI, those guys are good. fuck all the others. and occasionally ath

ARSB's nic name is literally "always open"

I personally like to call him Amon-Ra First Down

22

First Down, St. Brown

eugene_rat_slapSun God•

Yep either call him that or riff on the guy that couldn't pronounce it. "Nice throw to Amon St Ra"

the_colonel93DETROIT -VS- EVERYBODY•

Amon St Ra is wild lmao

It's why game film and drills matter way more than 40 times in football. Larry Fitzgerald, Cooper Kupp, Jerry Rice, etc. are not the fastest guys on the field (ever), but damn it they are always fucking open because they can run a fucking route.

Yes, speed kills but if it's speed vs route running, I am taking route runners all day at the WR position. Like LF ran a 4.63 and no one, and I mean no one would take Hill over LF.

14
JG-Elect•

This is a great ass point. Jerry was nowhere near fast, yet open. Fitzgerald has size but no speed. And I promise, every throw Stafford makes is to Kupp. So this was a great point and take. That’s why Amon Ra is going to be great

1
throwaway47382836•

literally right after he said that sungod took a big hit for a catch and jumped right back up and got ready for the next play

JG-Elect•

Lmao, collinsworth is blind and messed up for that

We KNOW he was taught to do calf raises at the LEAST

If these NBA players would take John Brown's training they wouldn't be injured all the time.

DisenfranchisedCynicSun God•

ARSB is honestly one of the quickest cutting slot receivers in the league. He is also one of the toughest and has more dawg in him than Collinsworth has of Rodgers’ cock in his mouth.

31
cujobob•

I don’t think he’s especially quick, but he’s refined. His route running has really developed into something special. If Jamo had his hands and route running, you’d be talking about the best player in the league.

Heisenbread77Ooooh Yeahhhh!•

That would be all the Dawg then. That's a lot of Dawg.

"Now here's a guy who plays football who's a football player"

Yes Chris, the man out there playing professional football is indeed a football player. Thanks for clearing that up because I thought for sure he was an accountant.

I'm coming back a month later but this is hilarious.

alexdagreat15Sun God•

Worst Broadcast i've ever watched regarding the way they covered the Lions before during and after the game. Announcers dont normally make me mad but I almost muted the TV lol

16
TimmahjTecmo Barry•

Have you not seen a game called by Vilma? At least Collinsworth knows the players names.

Is her worse than Booger?

seanw741DETROIT -VS- EVERYBODY•

Just wait until we’re on SNF next year. Collinsworth will say hes been following him since USC and that he’s a stud..what a clown 🤡🤡

14
willi3blaz390s logo•

Collinsworth also likes underage girls because he has money. I don’t think his opinions on grown men are valid tbh

11
Boofer2OPSun God•

I say this because even before his stats took an uptick mid last season you could always see him putting the stick on linebackers on run plays. He is one of the toughest.

10
HobbesGoHome90s logo•

I think Collinsworth was just trying to say he's not the biggest instead of not the toughest.

9
SaturnBaby21•

Why even make a comment about what he's NOT when you could easily get the same point across by calling him scrappy and hardworking? It was a pointed insult.

I_Am_Not_That_Man•

Sun God is the toughest. Full Stop.

MattyNiceGuy•

That's some really amazing insight. He really *is* a football player. I've seen him play on tv.

Chris Collins worth had Karen Roger's DNA all over his chin Sunday night. Dude barely wanted to call the good plays for detroit.

EscoffierUSA•

It is hard to deny. He is a football player.

CapainCarver70s logo•

Chris Collinsworth likes to fuck girls 14-18 because they're easier to manipulate.

3
Goatwhatsup•

Dude the lions could win the super bowl and I think these guys would be sitting there like, “what the fuck was that.” Instead of just giving us the credit we deserve. You’d think after all these years anyone would be happy to see us doing good. When Detroit wins America wins.

Of all of the wide receivers in the league, Amon-Ra is one of them. - Chris Connilingus probably
