Did DK give up after the interception?

    And he was just giving it away with ease.

    I vaguely remember that he was more concerned about complaining to the ref about something. The replay kinda shows what he more than the live action shot. I don't recall any other plays like it, I'll consider it a unicorn unless something else pops up.

    He gets up and just stands there there's. No movement. 20 was looking at him waiting to block DK.

    If I remember that play correctly it’s because he was down.

    WR’s are the biggest non contact football players in the game. Most of them are very low IQ but full of talent. If it weren’t for their incredible ability to catch a ball and run very fast they would probably be lucky to find a seasonal job at Best Buy. Yes, he gave up on the play which just happened to be another terrible pass.

    I've met two guys who were on the practice squad for Eagles. Not sure they listen in the college classrooms;)

    I doubt they would even be able to locate the college classroom. 90% of them are just gifted the passing grades along with the free tuition.

    But when pickens had a single play, half way into his second season, y'all lost your mind.

    Nobody could have that big of a man crush

    Yet Picken gave up on one play into his second season and y'all obsessed about it as if he did it weekly for his entire career.

    Yet I point this out 14 days later, and I'm obsessed?

    DK knew he was down.

    Also, I am not still sure the 2nd interception should have stood. I think he was out of bounds by the time he controlled it. Watch it again, the ref first called it a completion.

    If i remember correctly wilson had heart in wanting to make sure, as the rest of the players (you know, don't stop until you hear the whistle), DK gave up.

    If I remember correctly DK gave away the ball to 20 in that second highlight video.

    bone head plays on a game that we only lost by 2 points.

    1. He had already made the tackle during the catch. Replay review gave him the tackle.

    2. if you watch the replay in the first post to the end, he is part of the players running back to make the second tackle.


    So... if someone makes a tackle then it's logical for them to think the play is over. And he was running back.

    He’s just desperate to paint DK as the same as GP. He clearly thought he was down. If you want to say play to the whistle fine but not remotely the same as quitting considering he thought he was down and was right. No harm no foul.

    Dickhead Pickens let Warren get blown up and prevented a TD. Yeah thats the same :goofy:

    I guess the OP missed #2. DK clearly either knew he had contact with the interceptor, or considering that he was getting up from being on the ground may have initially not seen/processed that the DB was running it back. He clearly didn’t “give up.”

    But hey, if it fits a narrative…
