Kicking woes all ready ?
-
Maybe I am letting the blocked kicks from years past get to me but i remember the blocked fg against the rat birds I remember the game winning kick against the Steelers in 2018 so take your data and your half assed feelings and compare them to all the kicks we had since 2013 and you will see the most blocked kicks.

And welcome to the board also, hope to see you around ! Now you can miss a steady guy like Dawson maybe not lighting up the scoreboard with 60 yard bombs like some other guys but all in all a steady player.
When you have ""issues" with the least paid guys by position the P & K guys.......you might have a BIG problem winning some close games.
SO the solution now is.........?.

Just another challenge & I trust our decision makers.
Who kicks Sunday?...

You just wonder with 00:03 on the clock and you need a 49 yard FG to win versus KC on the road what will happen with _________ coming off the bench to try one.
If he really was good he'd already be the kicker, right ?

So what other FAs are out there ?

In Phil Dawson's 1st year, he went 8 for 12 FGs with a long of 49 yards. Many wanted him GONE. He seemed to get better & stronger as he aged, so I'm willing to be patient. Let's just hope that WHOEVER kicks for us is good under pressure.

Good point -but- it just seems to be a win it now attitude in sports, more than I can ever remember.
Not much patience to give a kicker or anyone else time to work things out........ plus it is the FOs job to get it right and NOW !
Sounds easy huh ?

I'm just glad my last name is not Berry, Stefanski, or Priefer!! Good luck to those guys!!

Kicker seemed fine from what little we saw. The biggest question is with the punter. I'm ready to cut that fool. If you can't catch a snap in the biggest moment of the game, get off my team. Gillan is an average punter at best. Seriously, when is the last time you EVER saw an NFL punter drop a snap? A PERFECT snap.
GTFOH, Scottish Douche Nozzle. Everyone can make a mistake, but you don't get to make THAT one.

The guy cost them a game. Along with Chubb fumbling. Would you cut Chubb?

WTF did Chubb do wrong? Chubb cost us 3 points, while scoring 2 touchdowns...this game was lost on a dropped punt snap & not giving Chubb more carries to finish this game

He fumbled. Just like the punter did. I guess the punter is held to a higher standard

The McLaughlin Group looks like a keeper

You may take my downs, but you will never take…MY 3 POINTS!!!
Has anyone heard of the NFL using Statcast technology? It would be cool and nerdy to get stuff like launch angles and exit velocities on field goal kicks. That 57 yarder was a beauty but looked like he had to low line drive it to get the distance. Granted l’m sure any kicker would have to do the same.

Two players in Browns history have hit >1 FG's from 50+ in one game... McLaughlin yesterday and someone named Phil Dawson. Dawson did it twice, once each in 2011 and 2012.
McLaughlin's 57 yesterday was the longest at FirstEnergy and the longest by a Brown since Steve Cox hit a 60 in 1984.

I'm just happy to see a 4 for 4 day after all our kicking adventures the last several years. And Dallas' kicker missed an XP last night to keep Da Bears within striking distance of a win.
