Leonard Fournette Discusses Fallout From His Micah Parsons Block
October 13th, 2022So it appears Playoff Lenny might be into being a football analyst.
Playoff Lenny made his debut yesterday on The33rdTeam.com to explain his side of things in the fallout from his Week 1 block on Micah Parsons with the Cowboys.
Playoff Lenny flattened Parsons on a long pass play from Tom Brady to Julio Jones down the right sideline.
Parsons and Playoff Lenny had a short spat on Twitter. No hard feelings, the Bucs’ running back said.
Many players seemed to come at Playoff Lenny. Hall of Fame safety Ed Reed, for example, said he doesn’t believe Playoff Lenny is dirty but it was a dirty play.
In the video Playoff Lenny did for The33rdTeam, Playoff Lenny basically said, what do you expect? Reed is a defensive player.
All in all, Playoff Lenny said his block was legit. His block was legal and he has no ill will for any of his haters, or for Parsons.
You can see an edited portion of Playoff Lenny’s video below.

Thought it was a great block at the time. Even better now.

Lenny could have a great career as an analyst when his playing days are over!
October 13th, 2022 at 6:26 am
Haven’t seen any offensive players complain about it

What’s with all the whiny babies in the NFL now? Parsons got put on his butt in a football game. What a surprise.
October 13th, 2022 at 6:46 am
Cry me a river. He got knocked on his ass and he was embarrassed by it.
Sorry for your luck Parsons.

I’m pretty sure his block is being used by every running back coach in the league as a perfect example of how to protect your QB when they stay to block.
October 13th, 2022 at 7:14 am
When you get embarrassed in life… The best thing to do is be quiet and admit your shortcomings…… Oh not this generation…. Bunch of screaming babies.

Reeds beard is growing into his eyeballs and Parsons and Miller should get out of the NFL and join a flag football league. On second thought that’s a league block in that league to. The more Parson talks about it the more embarrassing it is for him. Never heard of a blindside block on a defensive player inside the tackles. Wuss.

That block totally changed the way Parsons played after that. He was pretty much a non factor after that hit. Every time he tried to blitz after that he wasn’t quite as quick, quite as fast because his head was always on a swivel looking for that chip block.

“What does SAS think?”
It’s all thats really important.

Relooking at the video, Parsons had slid past Wells (our LT at the time) & had what looks like a relatively clean path into the backfield … if not for Lenny, who hit him solidly with his shoulder. Classic block; nothing ‘dirty’ about it. More than likely Parsons was a little off-balance from his move around Wells, and that probably contributed to his ending up on his butt. Life’s tough in the trenches.

It was fantastic! Lenny is awesome.

“Nobody likes getting put on their behind by a running back”
And that’s the long and short of it.

Time to see Lenny do the same to Devin Bush or some other Steeler.
October 13th, 2022 at 10:01 am
It is something that Parsons needs done to him enough that he can learn to live with it.
In places the NFL is still football, though those places get smaller daily.
October 13th, 2022 at 10:25 am
And now 4 weeks later if he did that he would Get a flag and possible suspension. He hit the poor little linebacker too hard.

Lenny you busted his ass and we love u for it
October 13th, 2022 at 12:26 pm
Not as good as Warren Sapp’s decleater on that Green Bay OT ☠️
October 13th, 2022 at 12:26 pm
DO IT AGAIN!!!!
October 13th, 2022 at 1:08 pm
doing his job which was to protect the qb
not illegal and not a low block
he is a strong man and may knock another man to the ground from time to time
nothing to see here

A+ Lenny

Footballs not a tea party,. Those ruff plays are what it’s all about…maybe parson should go try out for the softball team next time.
October 14th, 2022 at 1:35 pm
Excellent block, would love to see more just like that one.
It is a curious thing, though, that the NFL allows offensive players to hit defensive players harder than defensive guys are allowed to hit them on a tackle!
October 14th, 2022 at 3:54 pm
All these buc fans bragging about a dirty block most likely defend that bs “roughing the passer” call legit…. darn childish mentality.
