Video of the final kick return?

If it had somehow worked, it'd be like the Heidi game all over again.

I didn't see it, was just checking GamePass to see if it's in the replay. It's not.

The coaches film isn't up yet - I'll try to check it to see if it's included later.

From the looks of it OBJ got 26 yds, then lateraled to Riley who then lateraled to Shepard who got 27 more yards before fumbling out of bounds.

You're right - sound like it almost worked. Really want to see it.

was really excited for a second, He was yelling that Shepard had a seam ahead of him, then he turned and threw the ball out of bounds, Banks and Papa were lamenting that he didn't just turn on the jets and go for it instead of attempting another lateral.

Kudos to those that watched it. I immediately just went into a separate room and laid down on the floor in disbelief.

...I'm sure fellow South Jerseyans experienced what happened to me.

At 4:24pm, right before the FG attempt, Fox cuts off the game to play a few local commercials as his customary before going to the Eagles telecast at 4:25pm.

So I turn on Redzone - and don't you know they're talking about Detroit/Green Bay instead of showing the live kick. About two minutes later, the guy goes "and look what just happened in Carolina"...........

LMAO I must have blacked out from rage.

I completely missed it. I went for a walk. This is the first i'm hearing of it lol

the game-time expired on Gano's FG, so I guess they cut away, thinking the game was over. It's possible that no one saw the ensuing kickoff.

Don't think Fox aired it.

If we briefly had a chance, I guess I'm glad I missed it. Would've just been that much more frustrating to get a moment of hope.

My thought exactly.

I immediately called for my dog and went for a walk before I broke something. Crazy.

Lambuth Special?

As my pool is still open and warm, I went for a swim to burn off some anger; my phone was in my pocket, and rather than me drowning myself, the phone drowned instead. The day was a clean sweep!

Same. I’m just now learning there was a kickoff. WTF.

Man, not only for the refs screw ya but Fox did too. Not that it matters. Just weird AF.

the game shows "final" and then when they say "it's time now for America's Game of the Week" the graphic changes to show there is still :01 still on the clock. We didn't get to see it.

I just listened to the broadcast - Beckham took it from way deep in the endzone, hurdled a guy, then lateraled twice. When Shepard had the ball they saw a seam, but he tried to pass it back to Jawill Davis and Papa and Banks both said he should have sprinted and he might have made it.

I noticed that it was OBJ and SS back deep to return the kick. They should have had OBJ and Barkley, but I'm guessing that he was still sore from the extension into the end zone.

If there truly was a seam it's likely that Barkley has the speed and vision to get into the end zone.

What could have been. Ugh.

Yes, there was a kickoff. We lateralled it a few times and actually did have a seam and got to around midfield but the final lateral got botched and we were downed. There was a split second that I thought it could actually work.

I just assumed Fox messed up with the image as they did on the 4th and 1 Cam Newton spike and the game was truly over.

Imagine if they had scored on the KO return and all of us found at hours later during SNF pregame?

Very odd. Guess I will check for it once they post the all-22 coaches film.

Had the Giants scored, FOX would have a lot of 'splaining to do.

In some regions I heard they cut to the Eagles Vikings game right before Gano attempted the kick. So, no, they would have had zero 'splaining to do, people would just be like "wow that was crazy" and then the following week everything would be back to normal with FOX making millions of dollars broadcasting professional sports.

40 minutes or so of action with 8 billion commercials and they still couldn’t squeeze in enough commercial time. They missed instant replay review changes they came back in the middle of actual plays being run and then miss the fucking ending.

The Nfl sport is awesome, warts and all. The coverage of said sport is abominable. They are slowly killing the golden goose. Think boxing from the 80/90s to now. All that shit (scandals, fixes and overall dirt) came back to bite them too.
