The damn guys have gotten automatic to the point of boring. If you have a shitty kicker, you have nobody to blame but yourself.
These guys are like bullpen arms these days. There are probably Wal-Mart greeters throwing 94 with movement these days. By the same token, I'm betting someone in my mail-room could be hit a 45 yard kick with room to spare.
Remember when Stoyanovich hitting a 54 yard game-winner was seen as a minor miracle?
If guys miss anything under 56 these days I'm surprised by it.
We won the Bengals game because their kicker missed an extra point lol [Reply]

It appears that making them kick under pressure might be an antidote as well. Other than Butker, of course, who is the greatest kicker ever under any circumstances. [Reply]

Stoyo making that field goal was lucky and with the wind. It won the Chiefs the division but it didn't matter cuz they got ejected in the playoffs. Obviously that's a trigger for me.
A 45 yard field goal is no easy task and no I doubt anyone in your "mailroom" could make one. Maybe one or two out of 10 at best. [Reply]
This was a winnable game for the Giants. The problem for them is the rest of their schedule is as tough as it gets. They are looking at a top 3 pick, which is actually a good thing for them. [Reply]
