I like how the Meltzer Observer Quote twitter account retweeted an old Double Doink tweet just seconds after the kick. Awesome timing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ape Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 At this point, fuck injuries, fuck struggling QB play, at this point, the Eagles appear driven purely by divine intervention, and Foles has turned out to be the true messiah of this franchise. I expect the game in New Orleans to begin with the giant Monty Python foot stepping on Drew Brees before the opening kickoff. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Yeah - Hester is the one claiming he tipped it though no one has produced actual evidence of it Everything I see is Eagles fans sharing the same grainy image where you can’t see shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph2112 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Then I'm officially 50-50 with the expert from deadspin who surely made the call from his living room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I trust the former NFL player - specifically one who has held on hundreds of kicks - more than anyone in this thread 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 It looks like he got a piece of it. Of course, that doesn't mean he Parker didn't also fuck up the way Kluwe said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He very well could have He also could think he did (but not actually touched it) It also could have had zero impact on the actual kick It appears that no one truly cares as it isn’t being talked. It’s interesting - I mean either way the Eagles advance but it’s clear that some folks want it to be because the Eagles made a play not the Bears fucking up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ape Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Awful nice of the Eagles to try and move the blame away from Parkey. I’m sure he already feels bad enough what with never being able to show his face in the Chicagoland area ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32-bit Track Club Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 The ball hit the goalpost not once but twice. That's pretty damn unlucky. At this point, da Bears need to accept that God just hated them today. I blame Jim McMahon, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I feel bad for Parkey. Yeah, he sucks and shouldn't be playing. But not only did he miss that but to rub salt in the wounds they showed the other times he fucked up. If I was a concerned teammate/friend I would keep an eye on him for a bit as that can't be good for one's mental state. As for Lamar Jackson I gotta give it to Baltimore for sticking with him. Everybody at my house was calling for Flacco to come in but a quick reminder of why Lamar's in in the first place quieted that down quickly. Considering he's a rookie who got this far is impressive. And it's not surprising he choked under pressure compared to Rivers who's a veteran. Hopefully he can improve on his faults in the offseason.

Tabe Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I've watched the closeup video a couple times and the ball definitely gets tipped. You can see the rotation change on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Normally a Ravens loss would make me feel good, but I am sad for Lamar Jackson and honestly the Ravens would match up better in a showdown against the fucking Pats. The Pats repping out conference will make me pull for the NFC again this year and that will make me sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 The Cody Parkey kick has officially been stat corrected to be a Blocked Kick. This is good, but unnecessary I think. Because no one has ever accused Chicago fans of holding an unwarranted grudge against someone who "cost them a game" even when it's clear they didn't. Right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
