About those blocked field goals in Seattle last year...

Recommended Posts

We all remember when Kam Chancellor jumped over the offensive line twice to block Panther field goals.

Well, turns out there was a reason it was so easy, per David Newton:

Panthers coach Ron Rivera said he has had discussions with the league about the way Seattle players pulled his linemen down on two plays during the January playoff game where Chancellor was able to leap the line on field goal attempts. He believes they got the message.

Strange how this went unnoticed for so long.

The reason it's so bad, aside from the fact that it's holding and it should be 5 yards and an auto first down, is that if they don't hold the guys down kam touches either of those guys at all while jumping over them, it's a 15 yard penalty and an automatic first down.

Interesting.  Let's consult the video.

 

Jesus Christ Kam owned us in that game... I was pretty damn drunk (and pissed) watching it live and didn't realize just how dominant he was all night even outside the pick 6 and FG jumps.

Mother fuger had the game of his life against us.

That 2nd jump he clearly jumped over before they even touched our line. Even the first one was close with Bennett. What it is, is poor special teams which shows even again this year.

that kind of attitude isn't appreciated here!!!!

    • Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season 
    • I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win. 
    • I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
