Jake Elliott may drive you nuts sometimes, but he’s a keeper

Jake Elliott’s missed point after attempts are insanely annoying. Jake Elliott’s clutch kicking once again won a ballgame at the gun.

Both are true, but which matters more?

The Philadelphia Eagles’ second-year place kicker hit another game-winner last Sunday, a clutch 35-yard field goal at the gun that beat the Houston Texans 32-30.

Jake Elliott FTW!

Trailing 30-29, Elliott lined it up, drained it right down the middle and averted a loss that would have otherwise ended the Eagles’ playoff hopes.
