I'm not sure if it's the antivax homeopathic remedies or just the hard life of an NFL player in general, but at age 38 Aaron Rodgers has the look of a guy sent from a Russian prison into a muddy trench in ukraine with a pint of vodka and a broken rifle.
The greatest running back to ever play the game. If he had kept playing, he would easily have the rushing record by a mile and Emmitt Smith wouldn't have come close. With that, I want to say **** THE LIONS.
Of course these coaches have no idea of the point spread… as Sean McVey kicks a meaningless FG when his team is down 10….
He knew all the plays/formations/defensive sets when he first started since he was fresh off being a QB so he got popular just by “predicting” what was coming… then when he lost touch with that, he faked it for a couple of years trying to rely on charm/cuteness/weird exclamations (“here we go Jim!”)…. Now he’s been totally exposed and actually needs to put in work to get better.
Good to see Payton/Denver go down again. Guess we’ll have to wait to see what a great job that was. Hopefully Cowherd is there to console him after this one.
To be fair, if they went for the TD, it would have been a meaningless TD too. It's stat-padding either way - either for the offense or the kicker. In theory, if they had like 10 more seconds, they needed both a TD and FG either way.
He was really fun the first season or so he did games. You're exactly right. He was god****ingawful, unlistenable, today.
Do kickers get paid based on their points kicked? Lol. Why not just go for the TD again? Or any pass play? Seems like those would be the more important stat pad metric. I’m just glad I don’t put real money on these games. Still rocking a fake 75% vs spread this year.
