Default Re: Skip Bayless: Vasher\'s 108-yard TD return was dumb

Skip also said that the niners should not have tried to kick the field goal and that they should have just kneeled out the clock. What an idiotic comment

That's not as idiotic a statment. It was a 52 yarder in a monsoon. The chances of it going in were very close to zero. However, taking a knee is just as stupid, they should have tried a hail mary instead.

Nedney had already knocked 3 FG's of shorter distances right down the middle (one taken off the board due to penalty). He dealt with the wind better than the other kickers/punters/long snappers & QB's.

This was not a bad decision to let him take a shot, seriously the chances of a block returned for TD or a play like Vasher's to happen is pretty low.
