didn't they talk about doing a free kick during the Superbowl

 

[jakncoke]

Man, I'm a Rams/Arsenal/Rockets/Mariners supporter. I'm surprised I can still feel my face.

Pretty diverse selection. Are you not american?

 

[otapnam]

Lol.

 

[Paches]

Where am I

 

[Zeke]

holy shit greatest play ever :jnc

 

[effzee]

He wasn't down!

 

[cdyhybrid]

This game sucks.

 

[squicken]

WHY DID YOU CATCH THAT!!!

 

[JCizzle]

Hahaha that made all this stoppage time worth it

 

[SummitAve]

Fair catch kick!!!

 

[rando14]

lol

 

[The Frankman]

He wasn't down!

refs said "fuck it I'm outta here"

 

[jello44]

Wow a free kick. First time I've ever actually seen one.

Too bad he shanked it about 5 yards.

 

[Drakeon]

The NFL just needs to tell the NCAA to fuck off and move these Thursday nighters to Saturday Nights.

Agreed.

Also, someone explain free kicks to me.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Well... didn't see that coming!

 

[jakncoke]

Norfolk, Virginia.
Not like I have much of a home team to support. :/

Spoiler

The fucking Redskins aren't the home team.

ha i got some family in virginia beach but man you sure are diverse lol

 

[firebricks3]

Can anyone explain to me what this free kick business was about? I caught it as he missed by a mile.

 

[Zeke]

Seabass would have nailed that kick

 

[ShaneB]

I have no idea what I actually just saw. I mean the CFL has some wacky things, but that was wacky too.

 

[Fox318]

Seabass would have nailed that kick

Yup

 

[effzee]

refs said "fuck it I'm outta here"

It would have been hilarious if a 49ers player picked it up and walked into the endzone.


Then another review to see if he was down.

 

[thekad]

Who has Dawson in fantasy

 

[jello44]

Oh the Bills and Browns next week?

HAHA OH WOW

Seabass would have nailed that kick

While drunk.

I like to spread my misery through as many time zones as possible.

When you fair catch a punt you have the option to do a fair catch kick, which is similar to a field goal try but the ball isn't snapped and the kicker can get a free running start, so they can drill the ball further than in a normal FG.

 

[The Frankman]

Holy shit Wikipedia is quick!

 

[Boose]

I want Richardson and Finnegan on the sideline when the third quarter starts.

 

[Fantomex]

How does Finnegan have a career? That dude is horrible.

Huh. Thanks.

 

[sangreal]

I love it when they try the free kick

WTF it's already been updated with this game.

 

[cajunator]

What happened?

 

[Eleuin]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_catch_kick

man the wiki ninjas are quick

 

[JCizzle]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_catch_kick

Wikipedia always amazes

The most recent attempt was by Phil Dawson of the San Francisco 49ers on September 26th, 2013. The 71 yard attempt came up short and to the left.

 

[Zeke]

The fair catch kick rule is very rarely invoked,[14][16][17] and is one of the rarest plays in football.[16][17] The rule has been regarded as "obscure",[14][15] "bizarre",[17] and "quirky".[20]

we have witnessed history tonight my brothers, remember this night for one day your grandchild will sit on your lap and you will tell the tale of the 2013 free kick
Edit: god damn wiki is fast some neck beard was on stand by

 

[MechDX]

How does Finnegan have a career? That dude is horrible.

15 seconds of fame

 

[The Frankman]

I want Richardson and Finnegan on the sideline when the third quarter starts.

And again remember, Isiah Pead was declared inactive even though he's been healthy. Zac Stacy has had zero carries. Benny Cunningham isn't even getting carries.

Man looking back at the 1-10 in the 2008 NFL Draft seems very bad. Only 3 still on their original drafted teams.

1. MIA- Jake Long
2. STL- Chris Long
3. ATL- Matt Ryan
4. OAK- Darren Mcfadden
5. KC- Glenn Dorsey
6. NYJ- Vernon Gholston
7. NO- Sedrick Ellis
8. JAC- Derrick Harvey
9. CIN- Keith Rivers
10. NE- Jerod Mayo

 

[neoemonk]

Well that was odd.

 

[jello44]

Josh Freeman wants to be traded?

Trade him for the guy behind the counter at Taco Bell and everyone is happy.

Guy behind counter no longer works for minimum wage and Josh Freeman gets a discount on tacos.

 

[Zeke]

why are the Rams so stubborn with wanting to stick with Bradford

 

[JCizzle]

Just to reiterate, Thursday night football is garbage. What a stupid fucking idea.

 

[Kave_Man]

Oh the Bills and Browns next week?

HAHA OH WOW



While drunk.

Bills/Browns next week to keep up the Thursday quality.

Eat shit gentlemen.

 

[Red Blaster]

[rando14]

I'll be watching Kave_Amigo! I'm rooting for your boys Cameron and Gordon!

I count 4. Long, Ryan. Mcfadden, Mayo.

Long plays for the rams, we literally just saw him get injured....
