I mean how does that exist on a man that big? He simply never loses a snap because there's not a weakness there. Even if you play him perfectly, he's just stronger and faster than you are. The ONLY thing you can do is provide help but it's not like he's going to announce where he's going so you have to make the best protection calls you can and hope you guessed right.
If you don't, he's gonna end up singled up and he's going to win the snap regardless of how well the other guy plays. It's like Federer back at his apex - it didn't matter how good you were or how well you played that day. If he played to his ability, you would lose. You can play the game of your life and if he simply plays his A game (not an A+ day, just has a good day), you had no chance. All you could do was make it respectable.
I can't wrap my mind around how frustrating that would have to be. You're a world class player; among the best few dozen people in the WORLD at what you do. And the only hope you have for succeeding at your job that day is someone else helping you out or the other dude having the flu.
