@j_worrells@sundoglighting@JasonHarmonNFL Vikes kicked a FG in a game against the Bears in 2024 with just under 2:00 left to go up 11. Bears went down the field, scored a TD, got the 2, recovered the onside, and kicked a FG to tie it. If you can avoid giving the ball back, you do it.
@Yfz84 It’s a pretty easy rule. It’s all about the force that caused the ball to go into the end zone. If it’s decided that it was the force of the kick, then it’s a touchback. If they decide a player added new force, like batting it or kicking it, then it’s a safety.
@kalmaklysm@j_worrells@sundoglighting@JasonHarmonNFL How many times have you seen an NFL team lose a fumbled snap while kneeling out in victory formation? Phil Rivers did something sort of like that back maybe 15 years ago, but not exactly that scenario. I think they were positioning for a FG.
@Brandon_Warne I made a giant pot of chili last weekend. It’s almost gone. I told my wife I was thinking of making more on Saturday, and she reminded me that I’ll get sick of eating it after about half of it, and the rest will go to waste. That kind of thing never occurs to me. Glad she’s here.
