Ground Control To Kam Chancellor
Jumping clear over the offensive line on a field goal attempt is pretty insane, timing it perfectly with the snap count is even more insane, and the fact that Kam did it twice is the most insane feat of all. His jump the first time probably caused the false start, to be honest. I’d twitch out if that man was running full speed at me. The impressive part is still just how high he hurdles. Kam has always been the under-appreciated Boom member and my personal favorite. He’s not the loud mouth egoist that Sherman is, he’s not the superstar all pro Earl Thomas is, he’s just a gigantic beast with a badass visor and a sweet name. It’s the simple things that get me.
Also, unrelated, but I am now a contributor to Football Savages, and this is my first article, a detailed description of why you should hate every team left in the playoffs.
I saw what you did there… I was halfway expecting a giant baby / “star child” in the last panel.
It is cool he did it twice but a guy on the Rams did it this year and actually blocked the FG

So would Kam if the kicker hadn’t wet himself so bad that he shanked the second kick.
well, worked out for the kicker in the end, didn’t it?
Kam Chancellor is a bad, bad man. That is all.
One of the weirder sequences I saw in the NFL this year.
But are you really not going to do a comic about last weekend’s best game?
Dave, I know you’re just trying to play the contrarian. There’s no other reason a self-respecting sports fan who isn’t a Pats fan would root for the Pats. You really want Brady over the funnest goober of a caveman QB? Or tiny Russell Wilson and badass safeties like Kam and Thomas, and Marshawn “Yeah” Lynch? Or the somehow-eternally-likable-even-if-they-have-some-asshole-fans-sometimes Packers?
Come on Dave, you’re better than this. You don’t have to root for the Patriots.
you know what Nietzsche said about those who fight monsters
I’m dressing it up nice but I’m actually not. I’m kind of okay with the Pats considering what’s left. I don’t want to deal with Seattle fans any more than I already have to in the Pac NW. I feel almost nothing but bored annoyance at the Colts, I’m sick of the Packers for reasons I don’t understand, and I have utmost respect for what the Patriots have done. I don’t hate Brady, I don’t hate Belichick, I love Gronk, Wilfork, & Edleman. If I’m left with these teams as my only choices, I’m okay with seeing Brady get that 4th ring and pissing off everyone who still uses spygate as the reason they haven’t won since 04.
Also I got a killer comic idea in my mind if they win, and a good one if they at least make it and lose
The spygate thing is a really good argument, actually. While I am certainly not fond of the Pats, their most frothing haters who bring up spygate at every possible opportunity are far, far worse…
You know that not every not-Pats fan doesn’t necessarily hate the Pats, right?
Kam Chancellor is the best DB in the NFL
I wouldn’t even be able to jump over the linemen when I blocked kicks in middle school. Ha ha
As a Niner fan, Kam Chancellor is by far my favorite Seahawks player. Admittedly, I do avoid the Seahawks, but I believe he is probably the most humble of the Legion of Boom.
Hurray for successful Hokies in the NFL. Hopefully he’ll give us our SECOND hall of famer haha.
Its funny, cuz he jumps high.
Have anything good on Spags returning to the Giants?
Always appreciate when you put extra effort into the artwork. Reminds me of Watterson when he would do a crazy backdrop for Calvin and Hobbes.
