"...points to a relatively recent and catastrophic event similar to that described in the Bible as the Flood of Noah's day"

All the man is doing is making reference to the fact that the dino here suffered an immediate type of death and burial similar to the Biblical account of the flood. And, BTW, this single case may not provide proof of The Flood, however, when you examine the huge amounts of instances like these logic can only lead you to the point of acknowledging that something huge and catastrophic happened. You can say meteor, and he can say the Biblical Flood. No big deal.

It would take much more than that - you would also need to prove that alll instances were contemporaneous - finding an animal buried by flooding from Hurricane Agnes and finding an animal buried by Hurricane Floyd does not make them the same hurricanes - the fact is, most fossils of terrestial animals were created by burial by either flooding or volcanic action - but by many, many, many separate events...
