One day those goal line ball dunks are going to bite us in the ass at the worst possible time

Hardly a complaint since we score on them, but every time Cam or Stew hurdle a pile and stick the ball over the plane I have an orgasm and a bowel movement at the same time. It's like landing on an aircraft carrier. Only the absolute best in the world can do it, and you trust them to do it, but if they're off by even the tiniest margin they're in the drink and everyone is fuged.

Cam and Stew have each had a ball smacked loose a split second after it crossed the plane - I fear someone will smack one mid-extension at the worst possible time, like in the fourth quarter of a playoff game that'll force Shula to not be Shula and we'll all know how that'll end up.

Hopefully I am wrong and we can all just enjoy the catharsis

This is one of the dumbest ways someone can look at just about anything

It must suck to have to wear a condom and a diaper to games

As long as the NFL does its job on replay review, all that ball has to do is touch the damn plane. 

In other words, though it doesn't look it, the possible risk is A LOT less than the possible reward.

But I hear ya.

Not comparable. That guarantees your car is going to break down or at the very least have serious issues soon. We are not guaranteed to fumble on a leap.

As long as you time your jump well and when you extend the ball it shouldn’t be an issue.

Yeah fair enough.

As far as goalline jumps I don’t really have an issue with them, the guys who do them are more than likely very conscience of where that goalline is before they expose the ball like that. 

However the “until it happens don’t worry about it” yah I think that’s dumb.

You can control that, you cant control what the panthers football team will do on Sundays.

You are taking it to the extreme @*FreeFua* 

The comparison you are trying to use would be if he was the player and trying to decide the consequence of jumping over the line with the ball reached over the line.

If we wanted to use your figurative comparison it would be "hey that guy on tv's dashboard in his vehicle is lit up like a Christmas tree but f*ck it. I’ll ignore this check engine light and all the others BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO

 

I see what you are trying to say, but the only thing you have demonstrated is that you are not good with comparative metaphors. :)

Again, I state : Celebrate the win, don't worry about items you can not control. It's pointless, and will drive you insane.

    • So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...
    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
