Is that Ed Asher in a football-kicking mule movie? WTF? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted April 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 I love how Simmons is all, "he'll have to compete with Bullock." Bullshit. If you actually use a draft pick on a kicker, he's got the job as long as he doesn't show up to camp strung out on heroin or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMPHAR Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Nothing wrong with competition. It's a dangerous practice giving a rookie a spot unchallenged. Every rookie drafted or even signed as UDFA has reached a goal they've been busting ass fighting for, for years. Start giving out playing time and these guys will relax longer than they should. That's probably why the first round has so many busts. High expectations matched with money guaranteeing them a roster spot for at least a season or two. Meanwhile 5th rounder has to fight for his spot day one. Drafting a kicker is the equivalent of a first round position player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 If old Jake isn't the starting kicker come week one, i'll be shocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Advantage Jake in following an unpopular kicking that left at rock bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Both my football teams, the Bengals and the buckeyes, really sucked at placekicking last year. Hoping for a better showing this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalszoneBilly Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I just realized our new kicker Jake Elliott's helmet won't change much from the one he wore in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
