Great point.

Not really. It’s a very unique formation the team is in with only a couple possible options on what they’re doing.

@@LGRW313 Yeh, on the spot being aware of a formation that hasn't reoccurred in 60 years is so casual... Yeh.

Unki Unko it’s not that rare of a formation. Football just isn’t your thing it’s not a big deal.

Evan lol no way you would assume drop kick, dipshit

It was a pointless last game of the season, they were resting their starters for the playoffs

Not even just a smirk either, it was a genuine beaming smile. The only other time I’ve seen so much as a smirk during the regular season was when he did that thing against the Jets where he burned a couple minutes off the clock taking bogus penalties

He thinks very highly of himself especially now that we know the answer to who was resposible responsible for all the winning in NE

@@devins1195 The fact that Bill has been mentally checked out for the past 5-7 years doesn’t change his contributions to the dynasty. There are a lot of key moments to the dynasty that Brady had zero control over & were all Bill. For just one example, Bill found a needle in the haystack & shaped him into the greatest QB ever. If Brady had come out of the box as the GOAT, he would’ve been a first round pick. Bill scouted him & assumed Brady would be drafted in the 3rd round. They didn’t “need”another QB, but when they got to the 6th round & noticed Brady was still available, they changed plans & drafted him. Brady was extremely clutch & he almost never made mistakes when it mattered most, but he was not ready to carry the team on his own AT LEAST until 2007. Bill & the defense were absolutely the most important factors in the early Super Bowls. And before you say “the defense was always failing and forcing Brady to make 4th quarter comebacks”… …the defense kept the score low enough to allow Brady to make those comebacks, and if Brady had played better in the first 3 quarters, they would’ve never had to make the comebacks

@@devins1195 Bill has been particularly terrible at scouting/draft choices in recent years. But he was one of the better scouts/GMs pre-2016. He’s also historically been one of the best game planners and before he started sundowning, he made some of the boldest & best in-game coaching decisions of the past 20 years

Belichick has so much respect for the history of this game. When the Patriots play in Green Bay, he has them do a tour of Lambeau Field and the Packer Hall of Fame. He focuses on Lombardi and what a great coach he was.

@@bryanglass5818 That’s probably why he’s the most successful coach of all time. The media tries to paint him in a certain light but he’s just a brilliant man and his passion for the game is contagious. Every fan should admire and respect him

Was that the point?

Dont forget Flutie is a homeboy, grew up in Natick, went to BC and finished in Foxboro. He was a total anomaly, top shelf competitor with the heart of a lion. BB did him right, total class move, legend to legend.

I agree. Belichick doing this showed great character. He knew this was Doug's last game and wanted him to go out with a bang. But I know another former coach who was a fucking asshole with ZERO character who didn't do this for his star player in his last game. And for all of you who are old enough reading this, you already know who I'm talking about... Mike Ditka. When the Bears were winning the Super Bowl in '86, that clown let "Refrigerator Perry" score the last TD instead of letting Walter Payton score. After all Payton had done for that team, he was slapped in the face by Mike Ditka and not allowed to score at the end of the game. Ditka said "It would have been bad sportsmanship to let my superstar running back score when the game was already won." That was his logic. That would have been acceptable if it wasn't Walter Payton's last game... But it was his last game!!!! Ditka knew he was retiring!!!! Him doing that to Sweetness still pisses me off to this day!!

He loves his special teams

I couldn't believe it. And after skipping back to that part about 15 times, I STILL can't believe it.

He was getting a prostate exam during the dropkick

Ikr!

308wce 05 While currently losing a game too, hell froze over.

Flutie was even better than Brady. He just never got a fair shot.

Even though I cannot stand the patriots. I have to agree

Flutie was ahead of his time. His size and skill set would perfect for today’s game.

Still crazy hearing he was Chicago Bear. Apparently, Ditka didn’t like him. In his eyes, Flutie was just too small. Him leaving the team was probably for the best career wise.

David Lafleche that’s a stretch

It grew three sizes that day.

Flutie knows baseball.

RIP Doug Flutie Also RIP Wade Boggs

Yet somehow Wade Phillips started Rob Johnson over Flutie in the playoffs.

Was that the punter or something

Bradley Keith I agree dude. He was a true football guy and a great person off the field

Trollking2988 ignoring your name for a moment, he was a heisman trophy winning QB that threw the most iconic Hail Mary in the history of football Didn’t do much in the NFL, but did make a pro bowl and won comeback player of the year that same season. He’s also apparently considered one of the greatest CFL players of all time. I was 13 when this happened and tbh I couldn’t believe he was still on an NFL roster, he won the heisman 22 years before this kick.

Easy Eis in 1991 he threw for 6.6k yards in the CFL with like 14 yards per attempt lmao

Bradley Keith Oh? We appreciate him up in Canada.

Had one heck of a good career when he wasn't always awarded a fair shot at playing just because he's a little bit shorter then most QBs.

doug flutie sucks he's overrated

@Vincent Cuttolo If QBs still got denied a chance to play because of their heights then Drew Brees would've never gotten a fair shake in the NFL.

I liked Fliutie Flakes with bananas

@@gailpurcell3075 No u

If I recall correctly, the last play of his high school career he threw a hail mary to his brother for a TD. The guy just had a little magic or something.

@@MiltonRoe I did not know that! Thanks!

now he's doing ads highlighting his strong libido. I think I'd rather have that skill.

@@MiltonRoe The last play of his pop warner team he also threw a hail mary... he did this a lot... for last plays

Actually, he was making great plays at BC beginning in his freshman year.No 1 Pitt came to BC with Dan Marino at QB. I think it was Flutie's first start or first start at home. He played incredibly .Pitt won, but I recall not by much.

CFL yes it

Best "midget" quarterback since Eddie LeBaron. LOL

The NFL fucked him over so badly. Especially the Bills.

He was very well liked during his time here in San Diego!

Butter Johnson you are correct and for that the bills will never a Super Bowl

Your full of it

I think a professional athlete, no matter how good they were during their playing time, would like to be remembered as also as a nice guy. Love reading these comments about Flutie as a good bloke and great with fans. One of my heroes.

Except in Chicago, lmao.

@Dan Chapowski Blasphemous

Good point about size. He got the Bills to the playoffs. Time in the USFL and CFL ---- no NFL was willing to develop him. Also, it wasn't just athletic talent. He had a rare quality, that Jeter had and Mahomes possesses. They can think on their feet at speed and think not like others. They made things happen and can rescue a team out of a bad situation.

Lol I have a box somewhere

He was impossible not to love!

He was a hero for everyone. No matter how tall. The Patriots should have kept him.

Hell he was a hero for everyone under 5 foot 7

He really is a fine example of someone who made the most of their opportunities.

He lites up everywhere he goes. A great roll model. He dominated Canadian Football. The drop kick is one of my favorite football moments.

Doug Flutie is an all time great.

And he played drums with Boston at symphony hall

Rodman

The flying Gramatica brothers that used to celebrate extra points and FGs like they just won the super bowl would probably qualify. Especially when the one idiot got hurt at midfield while celebrating a FG when the team was down 20 😂

Favre

Ovechkin

Flutie was great. I loved watching him play. You could tell he was like a kid sometimes. He loved the game. Another one was Farve. He was just a big kid that loved the game.

OHHH HE BROKE HIS ANKLES is the call of 2019.

He called the T-Wolves w Garnet for years..soo entertaining!

I love Kevin Harlan. He's awesome.

It's like seeing palpatine before he was lord sidious

your team is ass.

But If the drop kick is worth only 1 point and supposedly it ain't easy to do....why not just try the regular extra point kick which is worth 1 point too?

Then we're playing rugby. No thanks

@@bneale Well, I still don't get why Belichick made Flutie drop kick the ball if it was only going to be worth 1 point. An extra point would be far easier to make.

Nigga I still take the train or bus to the game damn

Mario Lopez it was a retirement gift i guess? Game probably didnt matter for them either

@Andrew O'Mahony lmao dude can win in college, with a team guaranteed to get stars every year.. but in the real league, this niggas 15-17 lmao fucking bum

Nice catch.

S~Money2 He was younger then and he needed more experience. He’s the reason why Alabama is even good. They weren’t even relevant until Saban got there and took them to the championship in his second season there

@@MrChinbaca The political league where they dont even play real football anymore.

A Georgia fan referring to Alabama as irrevelant? You are uncunning my friend. Your 1980 NC trophy and Herschel Walker’s Heismen trophy probably have collected more cob webs than an abandoned house. Enjoy the sugar bowl.

Is that so…seems more like they may have just been letting him have the moment

belicheat

Ryan Prosper They we’re losing by 5. Whether he made or missed really didn’t affect the game situation. But still super cool to do it then rather than up by 20

Not sure whether you watched, but he was a marvellous player in the CFL - the game was perfect for his wide range of skills.

...to boot. BA-DA PSSH🥁 🤣

Flutie winning the super bowl in 1999 would have probably prevented kurt warner going to the hall of fame, and probably flutie himself would have been in canton right now...

It was probably a meaningless game though hence why bill decided hey why not do a drop kick lmao.

Miami won the last time they played...

@@redcatofdeath yeah im aware. They play again in week 4

It seems like Miami is the only team who can regularly beat New England

@@alexharvey6522 typically they get them once a year. Ive never seen them beat NE twice in the same year.

He was good during his USFL days, couldn't cut in the NFL, made a name for himself in the CFL where he was voted Greatest Canadian Football Player of all time at the 100th Grey Cup which is their Super Bowl and came back to the NFL.

rockvilleraven Didn’t he make the pro bowl with the Bills? Or Charges? Bills worst decision was to pull Flutie for Rob Johnson, what a stupid move, I could never understand that.

from yupps its me Still have a Box Hahahaha

@@rockvilleraven Flutie DID cut it. Every NFL team that did not give him the job was STUPID...and that includes the Patriots.

Little guy was a big name scab.

That's so cool that you were there. I'm glad that Bill gave Flutie the chance to do that : )

YEAH RIGHT. STOP IT.

I was at Woodstock, even though I was born in 1972.. lol..

@derpderp-np3tr the lead singer of matchbox 20 must really know how to ball.

Box of Flutie Flakes on top of the fridge on Everyone Loves Raymond.

I think they have some new ones now. Or will very shortly.

In early 2000s had a job with United Way in San Diego. Flutie was incredibly generous both with his own money and with his time to get additional donations. Great person.

Username checks out

"Bag of sand?" 🤔🤔🤔

Was Russell Wilson, maybe better

Did you see him in the shower?

@@jimmycal99 How? Russ has him beat in every counting stat, QBR, and completion %.

I keep seeing comments about how "small" Flutie is. The guy is 5'10", which is the average height of a man in the U.S.. Most CBs in the NFL are also around 5'10" in height. I realize that next to a lot of the giants in the NFL that Flutie is "small" and that most QBs are over 6' but I think it's demeaning to always say how "small" he is.

He’s like 4’7” 100 pounds

kinda like the old Tom Landry days!

Especially if it's Murphy!

It’s the only prescription.

I can’t believe you referenced my favorite SNL sketch, Larry Paris, you son of a bitch I like you

@@sammerarnson4711 Haha! You're a good guy.

You need a high speed camera on him when the gun sounds at the end of a Super Bowl victory. You may get 1 or 2 usable frames at 240p.

after Philips benched flutie, i have always thought Philips was Gutless...and worst of everything, unloyal

Nah he did it again when he trolled the jets with that punting loophole that he found out last year.

Here's the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n9ajq8iIrsDSiY0.html

a number of American stars underestimated in their home country came north to prove they could play. We're proud in Canada for giving them that chance to be noticed.

I know, I've seen him play against Baltimore teams in the USFL, CFL and NFL.

Actually he never played for Golden State.

Same😂 but it was the 3rd video on my recommendation on KZfaq when I got on the app. That’s crazy😂

I belive that if a drop kick is missed is just like a field goal. Otherwise that would make a lot of sense...

@@GWEBrasil15 I haven't read the rule book in 20 or more years but if a punter drops the ball and kicks it off the ground it still had to be returned and not treated as a Punt not a FG if it did not go through the uprights (miss FG) ... As I said I have not read this in 20 years and you may be correct. I recall the scenario happening in a Regular Season game between 2 teams after a punter incidentally dropped the ball on his 2 step approach but I can not remember between who and what year.

@@johnliberty3647 i understand. i'll search to see what is the case.

@@johnliberty3647 i found something interesting. " Two weeks later, on December 20, Buffalo Bills punter Colton Schmidt executed what is believed to be an unintentional drop kick after a botched punt against the Washington Redskins; because the Redskins recovered the kick, it was treated as a punt (and not as a field goal attempt, which would have pushed the ball back to the spot of the kick)." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_kick#NFL

@@GWEBrasil15 great research work dude, looks like you were correct and the incident I saw in the 80's or 90's was treated as a punt for the very same reason, the opposing team recovered it instead of leaving it.

Andrew Farrow really? it is?? 🤯

Bre3zyYaB1sh yes. That’s why it’s called a drop kick.

Not really, you should watch a regular rugby game.

Andrew Farrow wow. Thanks guy. I always thought drop kicks were easy untill you said they weren’t.

Like a little elf or gnome right?

TheSaintFrenzy his name is baker mayfield

Mmmm....not seeing it, but maybe in time I will.

Dave Blasko Baker sucks

I'm from Mass and a Giants fan because of 86 Sox and 85 Pats(long story) and watching CBS. Listening to Madden and Summerall call a Giant's game are some of my favorite childhood memories.

Don't forget that Wade Phillips benched Doug Flutie for ROBOSACK in the playoffs

Thats where you are wrong. You lost out all those years. We who watch the cfl had a great time.

“Wasting away” you act like the CFL isn’t a legitimate pro league with talented players that’s exciting to watch. Try getting out of your bubble and check it out.

SeamzKing I don’t think he meant the CFL is bad by his comments.. I certainly benefited from being a Argo fan and having him here 👍

@@SeamzKing But why leave your "bubble" of watching the NFL to watch an inferior league? Why would you waste your time? Sure if the NFL wasn't there I may watch it, but I'm not gonna spend more time watching football just to catch CFL games. I already get football fatigue when I watch college and NFL games back to back days

Just Sayin Well, there’s nothing inferior about Canadian football. It’s a different sport with its own pro league. Yes the two games are similar so players can go in between them, but don’t think of the CFL as a second-tier American football league because it’s not. It’s the highest level of Canadian football. Whether it’s interesting or not is totally subjective of course, but it’s not “inferior”, just different.

I remember watching that game and being utterly disgusted by Wade Phillips. Took them to the playoffs and then to get screwed like that. Wow was he a heck of a player. He deserved better.

Not Phillips decision though. That was the owner making that call. Watch Phillips' press conference announcing the decision. You can tell he didn't want to do it and he knew it was the wrong call. Wilson screwed Flutie, it was just Phillips making the announcement.

I felt that Music City Miracle was Karma against that decision

Yeah the irony is that Wade Phillips intended to start Flutie and it was the Ivory Tower who wanted to play Rob Johnson, coz they paid good money for him and hadn't seen any of what they paid for due to injury. So Phillips acquiesced and when the team lost the Ivory Tower fired _Phillips!_ There's someone else who never got much respect as a HC, because ownership was always so far up his ass he couldn't do anything without their approval. Insert Jerry Jones here as an example. That sort of meddling is why Jimmy Johnson left the NFL after setting the Cowboys up for a dynastic run in the 90s. Makes me thank god my Seahawks had Paul Allen for an owner, and now Jodie Allen. They're 100% hands-off and let Pete Carroll and John Schneider run the team in _their_ image, not the ownership. Most owners are their own worst enemy, and it's driven predominantly by pure, unadulterated _ego._

Buffalo had beaten the Patriots late in the ‘09 season that year also in Foxborough
