Sam Shields missing that field goal block against the 49ers makes me absolutely cringe. Right through his arms!!
If I remember right we were off sides anyways.All that stuff happens at such a fast speed...... slow motion makes it appear that he could have done more to make the block, but the micro seconds in which he was in there near the ball happend so fast he had no time to adjust his hands/arms. It's all a matter of chance anyways.....kicks are not often blocked and a lot of the time when they are there is a penalty on the defense for being offsides. I don't blame sheilds, I blame all the miscues that happened before that.
I agree... I was never blaming Shields. I was just wincing at the fact at how close the ball came to being blocked.All that stuff happens at such a fast speed...... slow motion makes it appear that he could have done more to make the block, but the micro seconds in which he was in there near the ball happend so fast he had no time to adjust his hands/arms.
