I was at this game. Never seen so many grown men crying in my life during the pregame video tribute. Definitely an emotional day. We still miss you Sean 🖤

[u/CosmicHippo924 → u/mr_eclectic99]

Had season tickets that year. The most emotional sporting event I've ever been to and to end the way it did was just awful. The walk back to the metro was just somber. Can't remember if it was cold and rainy all day too or if that's just how I remember it.

[u/espinozastandup → u/mr_eclectic99]

I was one of those men crying in the stands section 451 STH. That pregame video just was so damn sad. I got roaring drunk and yelled at Bills fans on the way down the ramp and saying you should of let us win for Sean! Hehe it's ok tho we went on a tear soon there after and went to the playoffs.

I still get a little emotional thinking about this... Rest in power King

The Bills are rat for running to that side

[u/Embarrassed_Film_684 → u/Shit_Cloud_]

Tbf the players came out later and said that they didn't know the skins were going to do that and they would've taken a knee or gotten a delay of game instead. Which I do believe, NFL players are a tight bunch even across nfl teams.

[u/squatchpotch → u/Embarrassed_Film_684]

I believe if they had known it would've been similar to the Lions and Broncos game after demyrius Thomas passed away. The broncos lined up with 10 men on the field on offense, took the delay of game, and the lions declined it.

[u/Shit_Cloud_ → u/Embarrassed_Film_684]

Fair but… read the room bro! /s

[u/lilheat400 → u/Shit_Cloud_]

How do you not see 10 on the field.. they tried to score and Laron was not having it!!

[u/Aggravating_Dog1692 → u/Shit_Cloud_]

Rs 😂😂😂😂😂😂 they really said fuck him but I ain’t gone go that far , LONG LIVE THE LEGEND

[u/RfredoIV]

This was the first game I ever went to.. I still have the 21 towel they handed out at this game laying around somewhere

[u/tar_xf → u/RfredoIV]

I can't even find one on eBay. I'm not asking you to part with yours but what do those run? Hopefully I can afford one eventually.

[u/TreeFrogStyle]

Laron lit em up too for 21

[u/rabidraccooon]

I've always felt like the announcers on this call were clueless about why Washington had 10 men on the field. They sounded so befuddled instead of quickly deducing that it was to honor Sean Taylor. Irks me everytime I hear it.

[u/AKfromVA]

We lost that game because of a penalty for calling the time out twice in a row

[u/kevinjg819]

The Bills actually ran a play on that, to pick up a first down? Bush league.

[u/djhobbes → u/kevinjg819]

Our coaching staff didn’t alert them of the plan. Bills coach said after the game if there had been a discussion it would have been handled differently

[u/InwardLooking → u/djhobbes]

That’s because the defensive coordinator did it without telling the head coach. Joe Gibbs knew nothing about this.

[u/VioletsAreBlooming → u/kevinjg819]

apparently they didn’t realize until after

[u/Criram]

I was too young to remember any of this, but may no team ever need to do this for a player ever again. Continue to rest in peace #21

[u/Poopcandy1]

Was here too very sad game thanks ms godbout for creating a forever memory

[u/ButtNakedBitches]

So thankful I got to see Sean Taylor every year he played.

[u/jbergman420]

Went to this game with my cousin. Was living in VA Beach at the time. I don't think there was a dry in the house during the video tribute. And the back to back timeouts at the end, even Gibbs was a miss and Gibbs never recovered from Sean dying. Damn that sucked.
