Why would any coach let his kicker tell the media what his range is on a given day?
I get what you mean but I think every team has multiple spotters watching pre-game warmups anyway and have a good idea what they can do.

Could that defender on that FG attempt have blocked that ball as it was heading towards the crossbar? Seems like a good strategy if allowed. I don't know the rules, maybe you are only allowed contact with the kick at the line of scrimmage?
The crossbar is 10 feet tall. Any ball over it, jumping without a running start from inbounds with equipment on.. I honestly doubt this is even doable

Quite the ballwashing for an offense that scores 7 points in the first half.

Used to be legal for the defender to "goal tend" a FG attempt in that situation. But the NFL outlawed it. No Fun League and all that.

This is going to be one of those games with 15 punts to start the game and then like 35 points in ten minutes, isn't it?

LOL Eli. The quack on that slowed it and allowed for the defender to undercut.

Are the phones in the commercial that everyone is wearing on their face the ones that blow up?

What's with the walkie-talkie by McAddo? If that's the backup for the headset-to-helmet communication system going down, why don't we see it more often?
