Here is a rip right from the DVR, it is being processed right now, I'm not sure if Youtube will put it at full HD 720 because when I encoded it somehow it came out at 652p instead of 720 so it might downsize it to only 480

EDIT: and while I was posting it the file got processed to 720

Outstanding play! For a kid coming in as mostly a receiver it is amazing how AQ has dedicated himself to become a complete TE with taking pride in blocking. He just demolished Allen - so much so Newhouse was left just standing there - a little stunned it seems. Good job Andrew!

Remember when a bunch of people wanted him cut (or at least suggested he should be) in training camp? I thought you were all crazy, you don't cut a young and talented TE like Quarless.

The funny thing is Allen was the one closest to Rodgers when he threw the ball.

Hey Chuck - what provider do you have? I've never been able to grab clips from my tw box, I'm assuming you have a different provider.

I have TW but I got this from a friend who has something else, not sure what he has honestly. I'm pretty sure you can capture from a TW cable box, gotta have the right tools though but I've never tried.

Yeah, I'm quite surprised he didn't level Rodgers out of frustration. Certainly could have.
Quarless must be pretty damn fast. He does the loop move and all of a sudden he's 20 yds down the field by the time the ball gets to him. Phenomenal sequence for him.

No one should be suprised since he is "God's Gift" Maybe we'll see more out of him next year when Finley is on the Raiders.

Quarless (and the other guys we have a TE) make Finley the lowest priority on my list of guys I hope to resign out of Finley, Jennings, Raji, Matthews, etc.
He's very good, he has the potential to be a top 3 TE in the NFL and possibly the best. I hope we retain him, I hope he's on the team for a very long time... but I really like the talent we have at that position.
I think Taylor has a chance to be a very good player. I like Crabtree a lot. I think Quarless is very talented and I think DJ Williams has a chance to be a very good player as well. None of them have the upside that Finley does, but I think as a unit (combined with our WRs) that Finley wouldn't be a huge loss.
That's why I'd pay Finley 7-8.5 million and nothing more really. No reason to overpay anyone on this team outside of Rodgers and Matthews.

His tat says "God's Gifts" not "God's Gift".
Someone on another website came back and said that Jared Allen eye gouged Quarless later in the game. I am not sure if it is true, but that is pretty classless.

Did they indicate when? I can go through the game and see if I can find it but a rough time estimate would make it much easier.

McGinn has praised Quarless multiple times for the quality blocker he's become, to the point that he's taking run blocking snaps from Crabtree.

I love the fact that King pointed it out and now it's all over the place. Probably someone else would have noticed it too but I sure didn't. Allen is a POS, it's great to see this play over and over and over.
