TitansFan23 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Lambo also missed an XP and he’s a pretty good kicker. While it would be nice to have a Tucker, right now that’s not an option. Lets just hope he doesn’t mimic Del Greco. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliTitan3518 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 The 51 yarder and game winner secured his job. As pointed out the XP was shitty execution from the whole unit. I think we are stuck with him unless he really chokes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reo Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Kickers have been shitty across the league so far this year iirc. Edited September 21, 2020 by reo Number9 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Both FG’s Sunday weren’t short ones either. One was 51 yards and the other 49 yards I think I . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepingTitan Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I expect his kicking to improve with time. There are a lot of gears in a FG. The entire play needs to be perfect. He'll be fine. I would like to see us draft a monster like Tucker or Butker Number9, and OilerTitanHybrid 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there isn't a pool of ace kickers sitting out there lined up like taxis at the airport. I am saying the kicking situation has potential to be a huge problem and it would be smart to be checking kickers out. MNF in Denver, 17 ticks on the clock he hit a 25 yards FG. We were real nervous he would miss it. Then all the way to one week later, Gosko misses another extra point to set up the games conclusion. The score is knotted at 30 and we are petrified as he tries a 49 yarder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cenj Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 6 hours ago, Mythos27 said: I'm actually more concerned about the snapper and holder at this point. At this point they've fucked up more FG attempts than Gostkowski. I haven't paid this close attention since when I was coaching HS football. If you've been on or coached a team with a shitty snapper you know the anxiety. The snaps have been consistently bad. I don't know what's going on, but get that shit under control.

titanruss Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I'd have to see more on these bad snaps. I only have really seen one and it feels like turning a blind eye to the real kicker issue Number9 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Should have drafted Blankenship instead of a shitty QB... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
