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!!!!

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
