Do we need a new field goal kicker

[94Smith]

He may have missed (and it was annoying to see) but at least he's no Jake Moody.

Yeah I was about to say careful what you wish for

No we dont, I admit I flipped out a bit after he missed that chip shot, But Meyers is a quality kicker and everyone makes mistakes on the field sometimes... I mean are we having this conversation everytime a player makes a mistake? I mean just slowdown a bit he made a 54 yarder to help with the score increase. Also, I haven't watch the replay let, but how do we know if that was 100% his fualt?, it could have been a bad snap, bad hold aswell..

We also play more than half our games outdoors and a lot of games at sea level. I’m not sure a dude consistently kicking 60 burgers in a dome would have the same luck on a rainy and windy Seattle afternoon.

The funny thing is I feel more relaxed when Myers is kicking a 51 yarder than I do when he is kicking a 41 yarder.

Hell....My sphincter muscle get's a workout every time he kicks a PAT..!!!

Meyers is washed.

:sarcasm off

 

[Torc]

Meyers sort of scored a touchdown for us.....

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Exactly how he drew it up in the sand.

even worse…an XP

Every kicker misses from time to time. Didn't we just sign Meyers to a 4 year extension?

Some folks around here get all of their excercise jumping to conclusions.

 

[NoGain]

I want a kicker where anything inside the 45 is a gimme, anything between 45 and 55 I'm thinking he's going to make it, and anything between 55 and 70 I'm thinking I'm feeling pretty good about this.

 

[HomerJHawk]

Next week he's clutch, then the convo changes to 'that's my dog!'.
A week later, he misses one, and this convo boomerangs.
So it goes with kickers.
I think he's fine.
For now.

The Cowboys kicker ( Aubrey) made a 64 yard FG on Sunday vs the Giants I think he could have made it from 70 yards

Did the Falcons cut Young Ho? I say sign him for the short ones and PAT’s. I can’t count how many times Oscar Meyers shanked short 9 irons or absolutely hooks the shit out of a 35 yarder. He makes too much money as is we could save money and make more field goals. Young Ho is a freak

3 QBs and 2 kickers?

If it means a 39 yard FG on the hash makes the playoffs then yes

 

[jeremiah]

Myers isn't really bad, just horribly streaky. I don't know what's wrong with him.

I think Myers time is passed.

 

[jeremiah]

Justin Tucker was good for years, better than Myers.

 

[CouchLogic]

I say no. But I don't think the kicker should be a factor to begin with. It's like relying on the lazt person at work to get anything done, you're SOL from the start if that's the case.

If you score enough TDs the kicker is less important.

That miss just dropped him into the bottom quartile.
