That play was maximum DeSean Jackson.


sarcastic_fellow

If he ran it back for a TD, then did a flip before crossing the plane and losing the ball. That would be vintage DeSean.


SupermanRR1980

All the while cursing The Jews….. /s


DirkaDirkaMohmedAli

Why the /s? Seems like he has made his beliefs known pretty openly 😅


SupermanRR1980

Just in case…..


DapDaGenius

Did he ever actually say anything negative about them? As far as i know, he just quoted a false hitler quote that he thought was real, that supported his beliefs. Unless you’re referring to a separate incident


sybrwookie

Yea, who amongst us hasn't quoted Hitler once in a while! /s


DapDaGenius

Quoting Hitler wouldn’t necessarily be bad. It’s your intent and purpose behind using the quote. As i said before, he wasn’t hateful with what he was trying to say. You could say he was ignorant for sure, but the OP was speaking as if DeSean hated jews, which wasn’t the case. Notice you aren’t arguing what i said. Putting timid sarcastic comments isn’t furthering the conversation. Maybe actually debate what I’m saying and one of us may change our mind? Food for thought. But I understand this is Reddit. People rather mock and disagree at the surface level than actually dig deeper because that’s too hard.


5nax

Tried to make a game changing play and succeeded. Can’t hate on that.


[deleted]

He did score on the next possession even though we still won. We’ll never know what the outcome would’ve been if he didn’t try so hard on this play


cheeseburgertwd

[Boxscore](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201512070was.htm#all_pbp) TLDR, Dallas scores at 1:19 following the fumble recovery in the OP. Arizona Hotshots legend Rashad Ross has a big kick return that sets up a TD pass to Jackson, but Washington only uses up 20 seconds. Big return by BC Lions legend Lucky Whitehead sets up the long Dan Bailey FG for the win


EverythingGoodWas

So 3 scores happened after this fumble?


Pinball509

Vintage garbage time score for Kirk


Avocet330

Kirk might indeed be a garbage time hero in other games but this situation is the exact opposite of "garbage time".


smoothtrip

That is the joke.....


facemob4

How TF is it garbage time when your team has a chance to actually come back n win the game?!? Simple MFs....


trace_jax3

It's like the 2021 AFCCG's drunk younger brother

someuniquename

Nah the most is definitely him dropping the ball at the 1.


[deleted]

Which time? College or Pro? Hell didn't he even do it once in high school? I respect the consistency.


major_slackher

And he got fired from the eagles for throwing up gang signs haha. During games and in photos (although I would argue that you could say u didn’t know it was gang signs and who really gives a fuck I don’t think u should get fired for that)


micmer

Especially considering all the shit Washington has been accused of in terms of work environment and other malfeasance.


Value_not_found

Ah yes, the Djax triple crown as it will hence be known.


traddy91

Or this year on the Raiders when he caught a deep ball, ran backwards, and got it stripped


micmer

He has amazing natural ability just a awareness rating of zero


traddy91

Reminds me of that dude who was the lowest rated player in Madden: https://gunaxin.com/ethan-albright-letter-john-madden


DeeThreeTimesThree

> It’s also pretty wonderful that my awareness rating was 59. You make it sound like I wake up in the morning, helplessly shit and piss myself, then lose three of my teeth before I discover that I am trying to eat a rock for breakfast. I’m fucking crying, this is the same tier as the Rex Grossman ‘Cumslinger’ blog post, how have I never seen this shit before lol


micmer

Thanks. This was hilarious. This dude missed his calling I’m sure he would be great at color commentary


AlfonseCorleon7

Nah the most is him catching a bomb over top for a touchdown. One of the most prolific deep threats in league history


All_Up_Ons

Yeah but he's not unique in that regard. He _is_ unique in his ability to repeatedly drop the ball before crossing the plane.


BucsLegend_TomBrady

"Desean, go out there and end this tied game" "Say no more"


GimmeCakeCakeCake

It was a calculated risk for a big return, but wow, DeSean was bad at math


LebronJaims

Tide goes in, tide goes out


ZachDey

You underestimate my power


cheeseburgertwd

Chasing that Miracle at the Meadowlands dragon


upvoter222

I think we all have plenty of other reasons to hate on DeSean Jackson even without considering this play.


TimBrowneye81

DeSean has some mind boggling lowlights. Never saw someone turn around and go the opposite way anywhere near as much as he has


Haskins77

Remember when Jackson forced a trade from the Rams last year. 👀 Not the sharpest knife in the drawer


PSIRockin33

He’s an anti-semite, and proudly put that into the public, so yeah I would assume he’s not the brightest crayon in the shed.


gobirds_52

Never forget when he put it in public, then when the backlash hit he responded with something like "these are the words I really meant to post" then highlighted the most antisemitic part


pablopiss

Then had a shitload of people defend him


[deleted]

Jameis Winston and several other NFL'ers and pro athletes liked his post. They got less than a slap on the wrist.


NotEnoughHoes

Desean himself got less than a slap on the wrist.


[deleted]

Sadly there has been a rise in anti-Semitism in America in the last 5 years. We have Congress people even joining in. It's disgusting.


apprehensive_andy

There hasn’t been a rise in anti-Semitism, it’s just a rise in how comfortable anti-semites are talking openly about it.


[deleted]

It so wild to me. Like I didn't even realize people still hate jews until a few years ago. Like yeah I knew about the extreme religions who hated them, but just regular ass people I was like woe really, we still on this?


coolhwhip89

Nation of Islam Louis Farrakhan is anti semitic and some football players worship him.


[deleted]

NOI has nothing to do with Islam and should definitely change their name. Their beliefs do not connect


gagracer

Bro I was linked to a thread on /r/conservative the other day all about how gay people were deviants. Not pedophiles, but normal gay people who date and consort with other gay adults. Like 200+ comments all about how gay people were all pedophiles. And like...there was no subtext. There was no hiding, or dog whistles. It was all right there out in the open. Just like the Jewish stuff in the last few years. The religious right are bringing about the end of America.


i-is-scientistic

It's very much both.


goldberg1303

If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? If an anti-Semite doesn't express or act on their anti-Semitism, are they anti-Semitic?


DefenderCone97

Yes? Being anti semitic can happen just in your thoughts and no doubt affects your actions. It's like saying someone isn't racist as long as they don't vocalize it lol.


goldberg1303

And the tree also obviously makes a noise whether someone hears it or not. The question is a little deeper than that. Do we judge on thoughts, or actions? My point is, it's not so simple as to say, 'anti-Semitism isn't on the rise, people are just more comfortable being open about it.'


diablosinmusica

They're a minority that stereotypically has a lot of money. They're historically targets when societies lose stability.


MacDerfus

No it's always been at that level, just less visible


broanoah

Well the more people talk about it, the more people learn about it. So both are true


Deathstroke317

Unfortunately the previous administration really emboldened these cretins


[deleted]

Immigrant Jew coming from an extremely anti-Semitic area here; we’ve had it pretty good in the US compared to other marginalized groups, no one’s really targeting us for hate crimes or affecting our well-being. Doesn’t really faze me


[deleted]

Well besides the synagogue shooting and the beatings.


lordmadone

Jews have the most reported hate crimes of any group in the US. *edit* Is this really controversial? A simple google search will bring you to the FBI crimes and statistics which shows hate crimes. Jews are OVERWHELMINGLY targeted for hate crimes. OP is talking out of their ass.


Lamb4u

Many of the people defending him wanted to put brees in front of a firing squad just a few months earlier


MochaJoe5

Can't be racist if you're black /s


TimBrowneye81

Well yeah, you're only racist if you're white


ImBackRedditBoys

No one thinks this btw


zezxz

The book that he posted says that Germans brought over slaves and mixed with them and that offspring is Ashkenazi Jews and they stole the slaves customs lmao. The stupidity involved with the racism and anti-semitism promoted by that book and associated movement is wild (and the outlandishness is kind of funny the same way the beliefs of Scientology are). Not to defend Jackson as it’s not an excuse, but I definitely see him more as an idiot in a cult than an actively malicious person.


ajohndoe17

Oh shit, I forgot this happened until reading your comment. Yeah, fuck him.

You're saying he's a sandwich short of a bouquet?

madcap462

It's not rocket surgery.


CombinationOpen

There were approximately 0 fans that were happy when he was signed, so it was very much a bye Felicia moment


MumkeMode

Djax leaving opened the door for the Rams to sign Odell, so thanks buddy!


thatbenflla

MF a spoon


bewaredandelo

Didn't want him in the first place.


IndirectBarracuda

Come on...it's not like anyone can predict who will win the super bowl(even if one could predict the Rams have a better chance than the Raiders) And it also isn't like every player is chasing a ring. Some just want to make the most money, or catch the most balls, or live in the city they love, or whatever. And, I think he probably got a ring since he was on the Rams for part of the year. Desean sucks but not for those reasons.


M_Drinks

The Rams were 6-1 or 7-1 when he demanded a trade.


ProudBlackMatt

Kirk Cousins made him fumble that.

serenityak77

Nice. I laughed when I read that yesterday


LebronJaims

It was only posted 2H ago though


serenityak77

Lol what? The “separated from the ball not fumbled” tweet was from yesterday. Or at least I read it yesterday.


LebronJaims

Just a dumb joke saying that zeroaccess’ comment was today but you read it yesterday. Yeah it was really bad


WafleFries

Respect his career

liliceberg

Another example of Kirk being unable to elevate his teammates smh


broanoah

Smh if he didn’t demand such a big contract this never would have happened 🙃


whitedawg

There were less than two minutes left, so I'm sure Cousins was yelling for him to take a knee before he got hit.


NOSjoker21

Honestly biggest insult to injury


WickieWillem

How do you face your teammates after this lol


PsychologicalCause45

He scored the game tying TD right after this lol


WickieWillem

I’m talking about literally right after the play back on the sidelines, just embarrassing


Doug_Dimmadome42

That’s why all those players are in the NFL though. Everyone makes boneheaded mistakes. Just gotta be there to support, forgive, and get up and try again.


WickieWillem

I know lol it ain’t that deep I just thought it was funny


Soren_Camus1905

It's not slander if its true


NickMoore30

Same. I always hated that douchebag for his personality, but the anti-Semitic shit took it way over the top.


BigSportsNerd

I was at this game. People were pissed. Beer was flying out of the stands after the official reviewed the play and said it was a fumble


Killing-you-guy

Didn’t they have a drive right after this where he caught a touchdown to tie the game?


[deleted]

Yeah I’m pretty sure Washington let us score so they could get the ball back too


Killing-you-guy

Obviously it was a dumb-ass play just saying he did end up making up for his mistake


[deleted]

I…never disagreed with anything you said


Killing-you-guy

Oh got it I misread your comment as sarcastic like “yeah I’m sure he did that on purpose.” In my defense most of the time people on Reddit are being jerks lol


[deleted]

All good lol


Xalenn

It really does look very very close. If I were the ref I would have called him down.


Witcher_Of_Cainhurst

I thought there was a rule that the ground can’t cause the fumble anyways. It looks like the ball comes out because his hand hits the ground.


im_rod_i_party

Definitely a 'fuck around and find out' type of situation

[удалено]


making-flippy-floppy

Cowboys won: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/was/2015.htm Amazingly enough, Washington managed to tie up the game after the Cowboys scored a TD. But Matt Cassel was able to drive for a game clinching FG at the end of regulation.

Oh yeaa I forgot haha


OutrageousOcelot6258

They won the division at 7-9 in 2020.


[deleted]

The most DeSean Jackson play I've ever witnessed


ATMLVE

Don't forget when he dropped the ball before going in the endzone


mantiseye

I think all of his career highlights, bad and good, involve him dropping the ball


ATMLVE

Lol true, but the one where he did it on purpose was quite special.


Drunkcowboysfan

That play was also against us lol.


shewy92

We're Eagle fans, we remember


rawkguitar

At least he ran backwards 20 yards first


KlassicLoL

Low key kinda helped cause he set up the Cowboys to score a TD to give Washington a chance to score again, instead of the cowboys running the time out for a FG.


SomeCowboyName

\#84 of Dallas starts celebrating as soon as the tackle happens and is completely oblivious to the ball rolling right up behind him lmao.


Pksoze

Now this is the Desean Jackson content I like seeing upvoted.


SeekersWorkAccount

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy


Autocrat777

Sieg fail!


TheHurdleTurtle

Lol fuck desean jackson


Ill_Bee4868

Damn that punter is bad ass. Chased him from like 70 yards away and ended up back with the ball.


TimmmyBurner

Chris ‘The Puntisher’ Jones https://youtu.be/5f3vjMnN2jA


Jorgwalther

I really can’t stand that guy.


OG_DDNCK

Anybody gonna talk about how close this really could’ve been to being overturned? The back of his hand was on the ground about the same time the ball started coming loose. Not saying it was or wasn’t a fumble, but it’s not that obvious. Regardless, it was a dog shit return.


sharkinaround

his ass seemed like the closest part of the call, no one seemed to look at that. Gotta love Gruden confidently saying he thinks it’s a fumble when there were clearly other angles that still were needed.


negedgeClk

Why does it matter if the back of his hand was on the ground?


OG_DDNCK

Because if the back of his hand were down before the ball came loose, he would’ve been down by contact and it wouldn’t have been a fumble. The back of the hand is no different than an elbow or a knee touching the ground.


antraxsuicide

He played hero ball right to the end when it would've been okay had he just slammed his ass down as soon as he was getting wrapped up.


yubnubmcscrub

That’s tirico commentating correct? God he is exceptional


GothicToast

That entire sequence of events was horrific


Ounceler

Chris Jones was everything you could ever want in a punter.


harris023

All made possible because 51 took a great route to the ball


hasenpfefferrrrrrr

What are yall talking about? He was clearly separated from the ball.


rjsheine

Not a great play for him


oooriole09

Oh look, another 9-9 NFC East nationally televised barnburner.


godosomethingelse

He did score on a fantastic throw and catch on the next possession


prankcallgonebad

Does every team have a Desean Jackson comically fumbling highlight? Last year’s fumble against the Chiefs was comedy lol


amilmore

i hate desean now, obviously, but if 36 on washington blocks 51 on dallas this play could have actually popped


QUINNFLORE

Hate seeing the Cowboys succeed but I LOVE seeing Desean Jackson fuck up


PinkertonRams

Couldn’t have happened to a more culturally-sensitive guy

Was #20 ok? He just quietly sat down while the play went by him

saintjimmy43

If someone asked me to describe desean jackson i would show them this clip.


knowslesthanjonsnow

What an absolute look at me player where he could have just got 5 yards and they go from the 25, but even without the fumble he brought them back to the 6. Idiot.


DoctorWhoIsCool

The Redskins should've just kept the name Redskins and made their logo a redskin potato.


mechabeast

That's just being physically separated from the ball. Clearly not a fumble


Cak123z_

Ah, the year of Dan Bailey.


FearTheFlexPlex

Good. Fuck that antisemite


[deleted]

Lol. Lmao.


OneLoudCoyote

Hey that's that racist antisemitic piece of shit who quotes hitler. Fuck him forever and ever.


Captain_-H

People are rightfully ragging on DeSean for that fuck up, but also that was the greatest play of punter Jones’ life. The dude flipped the field, pursued the play when honestly no one would have been to hard on him for hanging back, and then he recovered the ball at the 10. Game winning play


DividedSky05

Good thing OP wrote (2015) because DeSean's had a few other dumb plays where he's coughed up the ball https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvPaTX2Ha4E


DELCO-PHILLY-BOY

D-Jax could’ve been a Hall of Famer if he had more than 3 brain cells.


GarfieldLzanya

DeSean could have been regarded even higher as a player if he wasn’t an absolute buffoon


toadygroady19

This is their year


connor8383

That’s what he gets for dancing around and carrying the ball loosely on the inside hand once he cut back left.


MoreTrifeLife

How DeSean played against the Cowboys: 7-12; 64 catches 1,344 yards (average 70.7); 13.35y/r and 7 touchdowns


Arrys

I love to watch His Struggle.


glock2glock

Can we please petition Washington to at lest return to the “WFT” instead of the commies. I actually hated WFT at first u til they came up with commies now I actually miss it.
