Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

While this one feels great. Dallas owned us for the past few years until Moss stunned them with those 2 TDs in a game we were losing and showing no offense until late in the 4th.

They both feel great though.

Re: Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

I would describe the difference thusly:

In that game, I though we would lose right up until about a half second before Moss caught the second TD. In this game, I thought we would win right up until A.A. got beat by Whitten. So, last year's game felt like we stole it. This year felt like we had it, lost it, and then stole it.

In my opinion, last year's game gets the nod, at least for now. Last year's win put us in the playoffs and kept Dallas out. If we somehow manage to squeak into the playoffs and this game proves to be the catalyst for the turn-around, then I'll give the nod to this game.

Re: Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

this one, because it happened in the last seconds of the game rather than the last 3 mins. 35 yarder or whatever i thought for sure that was it, but a blocked kick, penalty, then a fg on an untimed down...definitely crazier than last year

Isn't the win that put us in the playoffs last year though the second one and not the one with Moss' TDs

ST made a huge play this year with the scoop on the blocked kick. And he clinched the win at Dallas last year when he knocked the snot out of Crayton on 4th down.

Re: Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

while today's was definitely crazier, last years was definitely more awesome.

it established Moss as awesome player, and it was in Dallas in their face. less to do with luck and more to do with awesome.

Re: Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

it's so hard to say.

how rare is a freakin' blocked kick in the nfl let alone one at the end of the game during which you get a penalty which gives you an untimed down for an attempt for the kicker to redeem himself and win the game instead of losing outright or going into overtime

whew...

Officially yes. I think the post meant that the game with Moss' TDs was the catalyst for our season.

Up to that point, the team looked like the same ol' Skins from the past few years.

I agree with this!
So last year's would get my nod, but ANY time we beat the cowpatties is my favorite!

Re: Which One is Better: Blocked FG or Moss 2 TD Game?

Personally, I'd say this one was better, but only because I was there. From our seats we couldn't see if either or the kicks were good or not so we basically had to go by the endzone crowd's reaction. It was like we won the freaking Super Bowl in our section.
What a great birthday weekend.
