I am an admitted Phil Dawson fan. For 14 years he labored for the Cleveland Browns never having an opportunity for a playoff game winning kick. He kicked in one of the most difficult stadiums in the league and yet is at or near the top in efficiency and accuracy. He joined the Browns in the come back year of 1999 and has participated in only one playoff game. He served a 14 year sentence with complaining or becoming a distraction.

 

He signed with the 49ers as a free agent this season and has not only gotten to the playoffs but won the first game with his leg. As most of the regular readers know, I have been an early supporter of both … Read more at FryingPanSports

The NFL has no credibility with me what so ever. These clowns are worse than the replacement refs ever were. At least the scabs tried to get the calls right.
