TheRealMcCoy Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 It was pretty messed up how he went out as an Eagle. We lost to the Packers in the wildcard game by 5 points and Akers missed 2 FGs (6 points). In the press conference Andy singled out David saying "We can all count. Those points would've helped." Akers at the time was waiting to find out if his 6 year old daughter had cancer weighing on his brain. Reid knew this and still made that comment. I completely forgot about this (Reid's comments... not about the cancer) until I saw someone mention it on Reddit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I checked all time FG kicking percentages and Akers came in ranked 36th. Suprisingly, Sturgis is only 3 spots behind him at 39th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
