Browns offer bizarre explanation for odd decision on missed game-tying field goal att - lovelystyle - 03-20-2024
The suffered another heartbreaking lo s Sunday, and this time around, it's po sible the lo s could have been avoided if their holder and long-snapper had been on the same page during game-tying field goal attempt, which came with just over two minute remaining.With the Browns trailing, 23-20, late in the fourth quarter, drove the team down to Baltimore's 37-yard line with just 2:10 left to play. At that point, the Browns drive stalled, so they sent York out to attempt a 56-yard field goal. Unfortunately for the Browns, they were hit with a false start penalty that moved the kick back five yards (more on that penalty later).Due to the penalty, York was supposed to be attempting a kick from 61 yards, but that's not what happened. Instead, the Saban Lee Jersey Browns' holder () knelt down at the 50-yard line, which made it a 60-yard field goal. On one hand, it might sound like a good idea to move your kicker one yard closer when you're attempting a field goal from that distance, but in this case, the move backfired. DEFLECTED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Tune in on CBS! Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) That is Baltimore's blocking the kick.Under normal circumstances, a holder will line up eight yards behind the line of scrimmage on all field goal attempts, and one reason they do that is so the kick doesn't get blocked. With Bojorquez only at seven yards behind the line of scrimmage, that gave the a better chance to block the kick, and they took full advantage of that. Browns coach Kevin Stefanski was asked Monday why Bojorquez lined up closer than usual on the field goal, and he didn't offer a great answer, pinning the problem on both Bojorquez and long-snapper . Stefanski asked about lining up a yard closer than usual on the FG that was blocked. Just something with Charley (Hughlett Dzanan Musa Jersey ) and the holder (Bojorquez) that we gotta work through.Your gue Derrick Rose Jersey s remains as good as mine. Zac Jackson (@AkronJackson) It was a bizarre answer because it's not an i sue the Browns should be dealing with at this point in the season. To add insult to injury, York was adamant that the field goal would have gone in if it hadn't been blocked."To be honest, it was 60 yards and a little bit into the wind and left to right, and I had to drive it and it came off the foot really well and I promise you, it was going in if the guy didn't block it," York . Back in Week 1, York kicked a game-winning 58-yard field goal against the , and as you can see below, Bojorquez was lined up eight yards behind the line of scrimmage. The snap came from the 40, and Bojorquez put it down at the 48. Rookie kicker Cade York gives Cleveland the lead from 58 yards out!: on CBS: Stream on NFL+ NFL (@NFL) What's not clear this time around is whether Bojorquez was told to line up closer or whether he made the decision on his own.Before the 60-yard attempt, the Browns were actually going to attempt a 56-yard field goal, but they got called for a false start. In the video below, you can clearly see that Bojorquez is set up for a 56-yarder, so if the Browns got hit with a five-yard penalty Jahlil Okafor Jersey , that should have moved the kick back to 61 yards. THE BROWNS DIDNT MOVE McNeil (@Reflog_18) The false start itself was a controversial penalty, with many Browns fans feeling that the Ravens should have been called for defensive offsides. However, as former NFL offensive lineman noted on Twitter, the refs appeared to make the right call. Theres multiple things here: 1) Its slow mo. Snapper dips his head and moves the ball much quicker in real time. 2) Ravens are in the neutral zone but that isnt a penalty by itself.3) TE spot on the left DOES move before Baltimore DL touches OL, which is a false start. Mitchell Schwartz (@MitchSchwartz71) Dunn was officially called for the penalty, and as the video below shows, it was pretty clear that he moved his right foot. Michael Dunn is inside of Harrison Bryant on the left. He moves his right foot. Because hes more than two players away from the Rats player that came into the neutral zone, he gets called for false start. Hes too far away to blame his movement on reacting to the defender. BROWN SPIDER ADVENTURES!!! #D4L (14-3) (@BrownSpiderCLE) The five-yard penalty should have set up a 61-yard field goal, but the Browns cut a yard off the kick, which likely played a part in the kick getting blocked. It's a bizarre way to lose a game, but it shouldn't be surprising, because Richard Hamilton Jersey the Browns have continuously found bizarre ways to lose this year.
