http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyGcRlxLKDU&feature=related Is this the best we could do? Nick Folk. I youtubed him and all I can find is "worst kicker this worst kicker that" The beginning of this video says a lot. neil rackers is available... As for punting Steve Weatherford is not the answer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sG4nfnBokvQ give me Rodney williams this guy can kick. Are you satisfied with our kickers?
I youtubed Drew Colemen and found some sick highlights of him as a RB when he was younger. Since it was on youtube, he should be our running back, youtube is the best way of evaluating someones talent.
Look @ Folks career numbers, and there is no reason to suspect he is the worst kicker out there. At best hes a complete wild card. He could be an elite pro bowl kicker, or absolute garbage. Id have nothing against bringing someone like Rackers in for a little competition in TC but it likely wont happen. Weatherford on the other hand im not a fan of. I think a defense first team needs to have an elite punter.
I youtubed Allen Iverson and he was a pretty good QB at Newport News. He should be our kick returner.
I have a friend who met Neil Rackers, and he said that he is a total asshole. I don't want him near this team, he choked in the playoffs too.
I realise that both are important roles on the team, and I recognise that doing either badly can cost games and Championships, but does anyone else struggle to care very much about kickers?
After what happened against the Steelers in the playoffs a few years ago I think every Jets fan should care about kickers.
I know I should care, I just can't find it in me to. I expect kickers to do their jobs and not fuck up, as long as they do I'm not interested in them. I realise this is unfair, but I'm a fan. I'm allowed to be unfair.
I care more about who our punter is than our kicker. A great punter paired with this defense is practically unbeatable.
Think we attempt to pick up a punter somewhere along the line ? I surely couldnt complain if we drafted one with our 6th or 7th rounder. Weatherford was 28th for punting avg, and 26th for net punting average.
