"Taking a snap and diving head first into well over 1,000 pounds of men trained to take your head off isn't a natural act.

But if Detroit quarterback Shaun Hill had it to do all over again, he'd do it just the same, despite the New England defender who tried to break his left (non-throwing) arm, which was already broken just five weeks ago, against the New York Giants.

The play happened with 6:32 left in the second quarter. The Lions had the ball at the Patriots' 2-yard line on third down. Hill took the snap and ran a QB keeper. He picked up the first down, but extended his arms to try to breach the goal line. That's when Hill felt someone trying to break his arm and the ball came loose, though he was ruled down."
