I'm not gonna lie, as an Eagles fan I'm really happy that I don't have to watch opposing offenses start at the 40 after each kickoff.There's a reason Philly cut him after his rookie season. You have to be pretty bad to be cut before you reach age 50 as a kicker :)
Nice high-scoring, semi-close game tonight, though.can't we just have a thursday night football game where neither team shows up
lolDude, the Giants had Eli Manning who was coming off one of the greatest seasons ever by a qb, a defense who manhandled two of the greatest offenses ever, and a team overall who blew out a 15-1 team at their home. Was I wrong to believe this team was the best in the league?
Resident Maple Leafs fan saying hiYay my pass still works
anyway the worst part about this season is that they retained 90% of the team that went 3-13
honestly being a redskins fan is the most depressing thing in sports
you suck every year with random exceptions
you don't draft well
everyone fucking hates your team for various reasons (snyder/nickname/etc)
you have stupidly bad luck (you draft a transcendent QB and everything that could go wrong does wrong)
the organization is a nepotistic buddy buddy mess because no matter how much Snyder loves the team, his management style is the epitome of what's wrong with capitalism
there's a part of me that wants to just shut down the existing franchise and start over.
The Demise of Tom Brady lol
Not really. Scobee from 50+ in his career is 25-34...and what happens if the catch happens and a corner makes a great shoestring tackle? What if the pass isint there and bortles makes a rookie mistake? With 12 seconds...take the field goal. It wasnt even that scobee missed, it was that the kick was blocked, rendering the distance a non-factorreminder that 50+ yard field goals, even in the modern era with the best kickers we've ever seen, are only hit <60% of the time.
a 55 yarder is a coin flip, and the Jags had plenty of time to run a quick out route to at least try to pick up 5 or so yards... the decision to kick was the problem.
I could probably list a couple other NFL franchises alone that it is less fun to be a fan of than the Redskins, let alone other sports. Until you've experienced the grief of being a Bills or Lions or Vikings fan, you really can't complain. The Redskins have 3 super bowl wins for pete's sake, that's still in the top 10.honestly being a redskins fan is the most depressing thing in sports
