Fire the Kicker

DieHardBrownsFan

He is a South African Soccer player. Under a lot of pressure. He may get better in time.

That was one of the best goals I have ever seen. I say keep him around.

lol... Actually reminded me of one of Phil's kicks...

... except his was 20 yards longer...

... and in the snow...

Of course I'm stoked the kid made it, but you mean to tell me there isn't at least one other person walking around the planet that would be better?

Prolly, D, but the kid got away with hitting the ball a tad high. Now I go to town building his confidence...

He's now "tested under fire".

So I ride him for at least another week.

I don't know what you'd expect after firing your kicker in midseason. I don't expect jobless kickers to be amazing.

Bailey has been 1 for 3 today for the Viks so far. Crosby was one of 5 and a missed XP.

Boswell is being paid $20m and been crap this year. Rams missed an XP tonight the whole league seems to be suffering

apart from Tucker

From where? Mentor high?

We may be outbid by the Pack for anyone who's on the market..

Crosby missed 4 FG and a PAT.. and they still sent him out for a 5th FG which he made with 2 seconds left. Pack lost by 8 indoors to Lions.

My band played a benefit concert today - missed the game - but I'm just watching the highlights, and I say, "START kicker tryouts again!"

I dont care if they are from Mentor fcking high if they can ball. God love the kicker for todays win but he is not the long term answer as in not even next week.

Keep the kicker. Get a guy that can coach him up.

TexasAg1969

For the f'n kicker. Just keep showing up when the game is on the line.?

Virtually all special teams coaches know little to nothing about kicking field goals, so good luck finding that guy.

MKC reports Ravens PR says former Sooner S Tony Jefferson got a hand on winning FG. Comes through clean from left Amos Jones..

count defenders left..

Right mentality for a kicker or a DB. Just forget the last play good or bad and prepare for the next.

What I see are Browns on the right with nobody to block. We dodged a bullet with this field goal not being blocked. Seemed like #88 for the Browns should have focused more on blocking the inside threat (more of a direct shorter distance to the kicker) instead of the outside one.
