The Block

by Rich Langford on Dec 24, 2011 9:58 PM PST

There was a little debate about who blocked the kick. Some places reported it as Trevor Scott. It was first reported as Seymour. Well, it was definitely Seymour.

This wasn't just Big Rich jumping up blindly and hoping either. This was Seymour reaching over and swatting the ball down like he was Albert Pujols connecting on a fastball.

This block was truly a thing of beauty because it was not just Seymour. This was a total effort by the defensive front. This block wouldn't have happened had they not got a little penetration, and that is exactly what they got. The defensive line manhandled the offensive line and sent a couple of blockers to the turf.

The defensive line has not been as dominant as they were last year. However, they are fairly healthy now, and have a solid last two games. And they just saved the Raiders on the biggest play of the season to date.

I am never ever ever optimistic about such stuff

But based on the xp he had just kicked, and on the fact he was on the right hash, I had a great feeling that suckup was going to hook that left.

I think that replay shows that thing was missing left. Look at how far it already went.

In any case, merry christmas raider nation, chiefs please shove your lump of coal up tebows arse, amen

If we were whiny bicthes we wouldn't be Raiders fans, we'd be niner fans... LOL!

This is the best blog around precisely because of the lack of over-bearing heavy handed moderating like you see on those other blogs.

Thanks to Saint, Noon, Sons and the rest of the SBP crew for the freedom we enjoy here.
May it always be so!
