This phrase is pure and utter BS. For the Jags it was a walk-off TD. But for the Redskins it was anything but. If you think it was, show me a Redskin that was WALKING after that TD. A hop-off TD, a run-off TD, a dance-off TD I remember...

What's wrong with it? You score a touchdown, then you walk off the field because game is over. Just because it is done much more in baseball means nothing.

What is really interesting to note is, in the years that there has been OT in games only 3 have ended with a TD. All others field goals or ties. So it is rare to have a walk off TD.

only three? cause we've been a part of two of them in the last two years (LT at fedex, moss at fedex). I guess it's possible, but that does seem a bit low.


and it is a walk off TD. you're analogy to battleship makes no sense at all. and it wouldn't be a walk off kneel down, since the term is used for a last minute play that results in a win when the other team won't have a chance to respond. A kneel down only happens when you're already ahead and just killing time. I mean, a game deciding homerun that's hit in the 3rd inning or the last pitch in the ninth aren't referred to as a walk off home run or a walk off pitch, so i have no idea why you'd think that the term should apply to a kneel down in the first place.

there's some seriously faulty logic in your complaints.

While we are complaining about obscure meaningless terms, can I get a moratorium on 'trickeration'? It was funny and clever 4 years ago but I think if I hear Dick Stockton or Dick Enberg or hell, any white guy over the age of 55 use it I will have to mute my TV for the rest of the game..

I got one. How about you do a "walk off" post. :)

Meaning I win the argument? Fine by me!

Got it.

Why don't we just start referring touchdowns to "home runs" while we're at it?

Not a bad idea, but I don't think everyone likes baseball or it's terminology and they may get upset if we do start mixing the two sport's distinctive and colorful phrasings. ;)

There was also an OT TD at Fedex where Dallas ran a flea flicker to win the game.

Didn't the Redskins also win the first ever game at FedEx on a Westbrook TD in OT against the Cardinals?

And there was this game (http://www.thewarpath.net/redskins-rewind/14722-redskins-rewind-nov-2-1986-vikings.html#post223039)
