Scottish Hammer ...gone

Neo

Maybe he played a part in the covid explosion on the Browns?‍️ If that were true, I would want his head too.

Well the snap in KC didn't help, but he hasn't been a great or even good punter most of the season.

The new guy spiking punts inside the 10 didn't help either.

Don't like that move one bit. Colquitt was sitting on the couch for a reason.

OK. But now that can be said about the hammer.

...and I wouldn't feel none too safe if I was the kicker either.

Well, I said it in my previous post... Here ya go Steve... https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/punts/2021/REG/all/puntingaverageyards/desc

Fan Fave Jamie ranks 31st in the NFL in punting average of guys who have more than 20 punts... And I love the guy... But you're only as good as your last kick. As Bill Belichick would say "released due to diminishing skills".... I'll take that back (checking)... He wasn't much better last year either. And our new guy Colquitt wasn't any better in 2020. So we traded one bum punter for another bum punter. Ray Guy he isn't.

FWIW, there's plenty of FG kickers sitting on the couch waiting for the phone to ring too.

Woody's avatar just got the axe. He WAS an exciting player once.

I wonder if he will get picked up anywhere ? An exciting but brief career just below the NFL pension I think.

Exciting for a bit, a hard job to lose ! Picked up $139,602 in incentives in a few years.

Colquitt was doing a nice job. Perhaps they see him as a better fit also. A family man. As opposed to whatever the hammer is.

We should draft Cade York, LSU - kicker.

Yes something needs to be done there. The last 2 kickers we drafted didn't pan out so well (Zane Gonzalez, Austin Seibert).

Yeah. We weren't too good at drafting QB's either. Does Phil Dawson have a son?

Well THIS is an intriguing take on the situation... ?

I say because the hammer is always getting COVID. And it's only the punter...and he's not doing great anyway...and his fill in was doing fine. Do ya say bye to the covid factory and keep the family man?

I say bye because Colquit is far better at placing the ball deep behind the other team's 20 y.l. The hammer also outkicked his coverage too often without also placing it OOB so it was not returnable.

BTW look who stands at #2. Only the f'n Browns do this shit. https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/punts/2021/PRO/all/puntingaverageyards/desc

I have no idea what being a "family man" has to do with anything, but if the Browns thought he was putting himself and the team in jeopardy regarding his behavior and contracting Covid, then yes, ciao Hammer of Scottish descent...

Unsympathetic

I say draft the next Tom Tupa - so we can have our starting punter also be our backup QB, and pay him a punter salary! That would give us an extra roster spot for a competent lineman of some sort...

Hammer ? the parting kicker ? Did he party his way out of a good paying job and oh so close to locking up an NFL pension ?

I think he might have been a bit injured too something he might not want to talk about...... just sayin'.

Like all young Lad's n' Lasses... I don;t think he drank anymore than his fair share of his peers and colleagues... I thought he was a pretty good young kid.. Never thought of him as a trouble maker but certainly no angel.. He was a good young dude.. I hope he gets on ok...
