Never blame your kicker...

If his Name is not Scott Norwood.

Just kidding. Sure if the kicker does not sink the important game winner or whatever it is disapointing, but the whole team did suck the whole game if it comes down to that.

Interesting fact, just 4 kickers in the HALL OF FAME,
George Blanda, who also kicked, but is in the HOF as QB.
Lou Groza, who also played as PK, but is member as OT.
Jan Stenerud
Morten Anderson.

and there is only 1 Punter
Ray Guy

Not that much for a league with so many years of Tradition.

On one Hand they seemed to be not important enough to be remembered on the other Hand they often get the blame if something bad happens.

The best thing to hear about a kicker is nothing. Either the offense has scored via touchdiwn, or he hasn't missed a kick.

is that yodaism? "Never you lose of the Kicker because."?


missing 4 FG ... ok ... shit happens. Sponge over. And lets blame breeze (not drew) for the Top of the Flops: the missed PAT.

PAT + 7 from the booth bunnies, enough to tie the game (just hypothetical).

Time to move on.


Q: Will Pats stop Chiefs next sunday?

Well deserved win for the chargers. Their running game just chewed us up


But wtf was the ref looking at with the 3th td? The LT was like moving 1sec before the snap and still no flag haha. Just terrible

Blame a kicker when he 'deserved' it, praise him high when he proved you wrong. WHAT ... A ... GAME!

Where have all the roughing the passer penalties gone?

A few teams suffered from some of ridiculous RTP calls early. Now that they took that away (obviously), they also took away the chance to even that out over all teams.


Check out what Kansas City has done with Keenum in 2nd Qtr with 6 min left on the clock. Double sandwich, lifting him up, tackled him to the groun and falling on him with full body. no flag. There are more examples like that during the past 3 weeks.

The refs are a fucking joke man. Dont know much about tother teams because I watch the highlights mostly

But the Browns dont have any luck with the refs man. Almost every game there are major BS calls against the Browns.

1st game against the steelers:
3th and goal for the steelers, incomplete pass, RTP flag for Garret. Next play TD (instead of Field Goal). After the game the league admits that that was not a RTP... Game ends in a tie

Aginst the Chargers:
The LT of the chargers moves 1 full second before the snap. Browns Dline kind off stops waiting for the obvious flag wich is not coming (wtf are you looking at you piece of shit ref... you have 2 or 3 people to watch and you still miss it), Rivers throws a 40yard TD.... off course the chargers would have won that game

Against the raiders:
Carr gets stripped sacked, the browns pick up the ball and are heading for a TD... But the ref blowns the whistlle and calls the play dead

3th and 1 for the browns with almost no time left. Hyde runs and gets the first down (game over). But the ref goes to the booth and is the only one seeing that the ball is just short. I am still trying to figuere out how you can determine the exact spot of the ball from that camera angle... Raiders tie the game and win in OT

Against the Bucs:
Baker Mayfield get hit to the head helmet to helmet. But because its the Browns the refs decides its ok to be hit in the head head first by the defender and just picks up the flag

And also in this game an Oline man moves a second before the snap but the goddamn ref dont see it


And then there was a situation (dont remember what game) That Mayfild throws a floater to the sideline. Landry ,who was the intended reciever, just gets tackled while the ball is is the air. The ref somehow decides that the ball is not catchable. Now how in the world can you think that a NFL reciever, that is already at full speed, can not run about 17yards in about 2 seconds (the time between the hit on Landry and the moment the ball hits the ground). Thats just complete bull shit. Even I would have had a shot at that ball back in my highschool days

Pre Game: "Uhm, sry, who is Nick Mullens?"

Post Game: "Who is Jimmy Garoppolo?"

SF#4 what a story

Don't know why SF QB are judged on just one good game, Brian Hoyer could be called GOAT there ( with another HC than Chip Kelly )
