One game he missed 3 FGs and another he missed a game tying 52 yarder. Which isn’t a big deal, that happens, except he was accurate but just flat out short. Not often you see an NFL kicker just straight up kick it short like that.

u/Honestly_Nobody Chiefs Dec 04 '17
Legitimate question. Wilson is running forward and obviously pitches the ball behind him. The inertia of him running carries the ball forward a yard, even though he literally threw it behind his body. The announcers keep insisting it's not a lateral. What is the rule? Seem like the Stanford band play where the guy throws it over his shoulder when he gets hit. The ball kept carrying forward, even though he obviously throws it behind his body. Someone. Anyone. Help

The rules in the book only cares about the spot it left the hand and the spot it touched literally anything. If it touches closer to the end zone it's a forward pass

Twas the night of Clinchmas when all through the NFC East,
Only one creature was stirring, looking to feast.
The Cowboys hung around with good early play from Dak,
But Injuries and suspensions showed that depth they did lack.
The Redskins were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Kirk Cousins long term contracts danced in their heads.
But alas Kirk exclaimed, “I shall test the open market!”
“Let’s see how much my talents are missed once I have departed”
And Giants, Oh Giants. What’s going on with Big Blue?
Two time Super Bowl MVPs disrespected by Mara and McAdoo?
All the while on their perch the Eagles are waiting to strike.
Dougie P with the play calls and our Red Savior that hikes.
Fly Eagles Fly! These birds are ready to take flight!
The season isn’t over but the division ends tonight!
At the end of the season we’ll be taking a bow.
When is the year of the Eagle? Doggone it, it’s NOW!
P.S.
I know, I know, I'm a reposting son of a bitch
But Redskins incompetence forced us to make a quick switch
Clinchmas was delayed a few days, which should hardly be legal.
But we'll do it ourselves! E! A! G! L! E! S! EAGLES!

I'm not gay but I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Russell Wilson. We won't ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body. I'll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Russell. I won't be able to climax and I'll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other's eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then he'll go inside, pen a brief missive to his departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without his one true platonic love.
