Please Cut Specs

Blanky-ship has the yips...if the kick is not critical, he makes it...if the kick has some pressure to it, he misses it REGARDLES OF THE DISTANCE.
He is going to cost us some games this year.

Seems to be an issue all over the league, except for about 5 kickers.

Granted specs still should have been able to hit a 42 yarder from the right has, but if Frank wouldn't have been such a dumb fuck he wouldn't have had to.

I don’t fault Frank for trying to improve his position for the kick. You could make a convincing argument that he did so BECAUSE he doesn’t have much faith in specs.

Bitch about the play call sure but I won’t fault the intent.

We need a kicker who can make a 42 yard field goal.

A 33 yarder straight down the middle is an uncontested layup for one of the 32 best FG kickers in the world. If Specs isn't good enough to do that then Frank needs to tell Ballard to bring in someone who can.

Edit: and Reich should have done it before the season started and it cost us a win.

He's available and should be packing his bags right now!

Ballard should already know that. He watches the same games we do. Ballard is not without blame here.

Damn, as I type this Succop misses a 36 yard field goal. The Tits kicker missed a game winning field goal too. Like Racehorse mentioned, it seems to be a league wide problem outside of about 5 kickers.

Maybe, but Ballard does seem to get hard ons for some players: Banaogu, Campbell, and apparently Blankenship. Reich should check him on that.

If Ballard has a hard on for Blankenship, then he needs to go too. Reich may be afraid of Ballard though.

Ballard probably does considering he let Badgley walk and only brought in another PS guy to compete w/ Specs. Either way it's a big fucking issue when your coaching staff doesn't trust their FG kicker to hit a 33 yarder, which is what happened today

Yep, I agree.
