I think there's an opening for a kicker in Chicago

In case you missed it. Chicago needed a field goal in the last few seconds against Philly to win, the season was on the line. The ball hit the upright and bounced out. Then for some reason, he got to kick again. Again, the ball bounced off the left upright, then off the cross bar and out. Philly won the game. :lol: :lol: :lol:

His first kick was good but the Philly coach had called a time out just before the kick.

His rekick was the one that hit the left upright and then bounced off the cross bar, no good. Philly wins. Damn, I HATE the Philly eagles.

That's what I get for watching with the sound off.

As bad as it feels, the Eagles winning has one good result. The Cowboys don't have to play the SAINTS this weekend. I know the Cowboys beat them last time but I wouldn't feel good about a rematch.

I thought the "grown ass man" comment that Zeke walked up and made while Erin Andrews was interviewing Dak was priceless! He really took her off guard.

Ric, I did a little research on that. He hit the upright SIX times this season. The four times were in ONE GAME, against the Lions. He also hit an upright two weeks ago against the Vikings, and then last week against the Eagles; there should be two Xs on the left and four on the right.

eta: I see now that the kick against the Eagles has been officially ruled a blocked kick. So it was tipped by a defender, hit the upright, then bounced off the crossbar. Wow.
