That absolute dog shit luck on that punt had to be demoralizing for a defense that was playing extremely well up to that point.
Yeah, when I watched it happen live, I could not believe my eyes. Just when I thought the Niners defense really stepped up, especially in comparison to their performance in the games leading up to the SB, something like that happens and its all for naught.
He's part of The NFL Today crew - Phil Simms, James Brown, Coach Cowher, Nate Burleson, and Boomer are the ones I usually see pre-game, halftime report, and post game wrap up.
I wouldn't call that a muffed punt; the ball caromed off a blocker's ankle and force the returner to try to field the ball. Maybe he could have done better, but it wasn't his fault. It's notable that the Chiefs recovered 6 of 7 fumbles, which is just terrific luck. When Pacheco mishandled the pitch back, he picked up the football right before the defender tackled him for a big loss. Usually players are taught to just jump on a fumbled ball because it's very hard to scoop it up as opponents are crashing towards you.
That was a free game to play and if you picked correct, you got a free bet.
You get $25 to bet, not $25 for your pocket? Can you cash out or do you just get money to play the game?
dude, you guys hired our o-line coach, and our o-line has nothing but sucked under him. I mean of course they are missing talent in several positions, but he couldn't do anything and did not help Neal turn into a serviceable anything.
It's a been one-sided affair of Giants owning Washington throughout history. This will blow up in Washington's face.

I don't think that's quite right, I think position coaches/coordinators can be important, and along with the talent question, it could lean both ways.. There are coaches well known for mentoring QB's, that's not a myth. And there is the flip side, players leaving teams and playing better elsewhere - in fact the Giants had two o-linemen leave under Bobby who played much better for their next team. Also see Evan Engram in Jacksonville as a TE who left and played much better.
They weren't for me.
So dumbass! I didn't pay attention to him after that. Romo's comments seemed intelligent, informed and pretty spot on to me.
I stopped watching SB commercials last year. Recent years I tried, but FF through most. Yesterday, I had no interest in seeing any, instantly FF past every single one. I do that for most sports.
Funny, i thought it was very subdued, relatively speaking. More like a normal concert performance. Dude was veeeery out of shape though. Gassed and leaking vital fluids from about 4 minutes of his best MJ impressions.
I've had the feeling that the 9ers have had a curse on them for 25 years or so. OK, they've been in a slew of NFC championship games, won a couple recently. No Lombardi for 29 years and a franchise that doesn't feel vindicated if they don't win it given the Walsh and Seifert eras.
