rag doll
v. in American Football, an engagement between a defensive linemen and offensive lineman where the defensive linemen tosses the (typically 320 lb.) offensive lineman away like a rag doll, usually with ensuing similar deleterious actions imparted to the ball carrier. It would be the reciprocal of a pancake, where the offensive lineman drills the defensive lineman backwards into the ground and then lands on top of him.
Yoi and Double Yoi! Big Snack just trew the Seatlle centah away like a rag doll, an den sacked Hasselbeck. I'll bet dat Hasselbeck hopes da refs don't throw any more holdin' flags on him.
