I do, yeah. I'd much rather have the Seahawks in the playoffs than the Rams.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Sco Nix.

 

[Cody Webster]

Oh man. ESP could have made that FG

 

[ponder719]

Holy shit, that was the most Bungle.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

That’s what you get for kicking.

Kicking is for the weak.

In York's defense, he wasn't one of the 32 people who had that one job when teams could give it to anyone they chose. Given the choice between relying on Joe Burrow and the backup kicker, why would you choose the backup kicker?

I wonder what the best numbers we have say about choosing to run the clock down and kick a FG instead of scoring. ~30 seconds probably up 3 vs 1:30 up 7 feels like at least a discussion worth having.

There's a reason Harbaugh has carried a Lamar Jackson lite as his backup since they named him the starter. You don't have an install for two QB's. You have what you're running and then a skinnier version of it for your back up, which is largely devoid of any timing routes that require practice reps. There's a reason it was slant/sluggo and digs. Those are window routes.

It's really hard to win with a back-up in the NFL (talent drop off, lack of reps, etc.). It's even harder to do it on the fly.

Who would qualify as a Jalen Lite? That's a hard one

Jalen does.

Haha. I was looking for Tebow but this is more current

The Burrow to Higgins combo will live on forever in the halls of Alabama Crimson Herbert’s lore.

Why is everyone excited that he caught that?!?? Knock it down and you have the ball at midfield. He just handed his team a 45 yard loss

Because I want the Cardinals to win. That 45 yards is huge.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I’m this friggin’ close to having the Rams come to Philly the next two years.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Hell yeah.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

The worst thing that could've happened there for the Cards is what happened, bahahah

helped me to 3rd in my league...like they totally couldnt do that last week to get me into the championship game

I don't care all that much about the Cardinals, but I would be happy to not see the Rams in the playoffs for another couple years. Alas, the Cards remain the Cards, so I'm probably stuck looking at the Rams and their Temu Vault Suits for at least the first round of the playoffs. At least they probably get the souls kicked out of them by the Packers.

On one hand, I wanted the Rams out of the playoffs.

On the other hand, seeing Gannon fail when our SB aspirations are on the line just feels...right.

Huff in, Hurts out. Fun

Because we were all good boys this year we get to watch 2 whole games of Pickett
