Chris Boswell Looks Like Charlie Brown In Worst Onside Kick Ever

That's what you get for being too fancy.

While he may have been attempting a tricky onside kick Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Chris Boswell looked an awful lot like a certain sandlot player from “Peanuts.”

The visiting Steelers were down 21-14 to the Baltimore Ravens with 48 seconds left. Boswell tried a sleight-of-foot maneuver called a “rabona.” It may have been the lamest onside kick attempt in history.

No we know Lucy wasn’t pulling the ball away at the last moment and Boswell wasn’t gaining a full head of steam to kick off and fall flat like Charlie Brown, but the result was pretty much the same.

And Charlie Brown’s yellow-and-black shirt has the Steelers’ colors!

The Ravens took possession and secured the victory.

Watch the whole sequence here:

According to For The Win, Boswell successfully attempted a “rabona” in college, but not this time. So not this time.
