Xavier McKinney didn’t get an interception as the Packers clean up the Cardinals. Trash safety, overpaid, et cetera. Really wish Love wouldn’t throw up those no-look prayers as he’s falling, though. Doubs brought it in for the touchdown, but the interception at their own goal line made the Rams game much more stressful than it needed to be.
That looked like an exciting game Buccs and Saints!
Was it a scorigami?
No; it’s happened two previous times.
Bookmark this link, and you can look these up for yourself (since you seem to like to ask about them a lot):
Tough break (literally) for the Lions. They are absolutely dominating this game and Aiden Hutchinson goes down and is being carted off.
Due to the unique nature of how points are scored in (American) Football, where it is impossible to score 1 point on its own…
I think this was mentioned in the old scorigami thread, but it IS possible–just requires a “1 point safety” scored against the offense during a conversion attempt. This however would require something like a defender scooping up a loose ball, running it almost all the way back only to lose it, someone from the offense then scoops it up-and runs into his own end zone and is either tackled there or has the ball knocked out thru the end zone (or someone on his team commits a penalty while in there). So no surprise that has never happened, but never say never.
I personally kind of find the CFL 1 point “rouge” to be rather fascinating, note.
This article explains the methods by which a 1 point safety can be scored. I’m not sure I understand it all, but here it is.

Maybe you call it a scorigami. I say Dallas was on the ass end of an ass-kicking
They really need to sit Watson, if only just so he can try and get his shit together. Leaving out there to stink up the joint isn’t doing anyone any good.
It seems to have every season, too.
On paper, they should be better than their results, but that’s why you play the games. Something just isn’t clicking down there. Absent a miracle, Doug Pederson is looking for a job come January.
Every time I see Joe Burrow on the bench without his helmet and his bleached hair on display, with helmeted teammates around him, all I can think of is Calvin and Hobbes.
Cincy’s runner just massively fucked up; the Giants would have been out of timeouts once they called their last one if he had laid down after passing the 1st down marker, and the Bengals could have run the clock out. Yeah, the chances of the Giants getting two scores is between slim and none, but weirder things have happened.
Does he have Hat Hair?
Giants kicker makes that moot, oh well.
I’m glad somebody else noticed that. Sure, the odds of the Giants scoring twice is some small nonzero number, but if he takes a knee, the game is over without NY getting the ball again.
ETA: And now the game is over, as the Giants kicker misses a FG…again.
He had a bit of helmet hair in the on-the-field interview after the game, yeah.
47-9 Is not only an ass-kicking it is an ass kicking that had never been seen before.
That Eagles Super Bowl is looking more and more inexplicable as time goes on.
Nick Foles is a terrible QB. Carson Wentz is a terrible QB. Doug Peterson and Frank Reich are terrible coaches. I mean, holy shit.
