Still hasn't cost us a game. His leash is getting shorter though.

The kid sucks. Sucks horribly. McVay needs to man up and cut his azz!
I'm tired of watching him miss kicks and make his ugly low line drives.
there is more blame to go around, but keeping this kid on the team sets a bad tone that performance doesn't matter.
If Any of us performed the same way at our jobs, someone else would be doing our work next week.

The Rams brain trust knows he hasn't been good. They are giving him a chance to turn things around.
Have a feeling as soon as he costs them a game or two he won't be around.

I never understood this take when it came to kickers - giving them a chance to turn things around or to fix their issues. I’m not saying that kickers are a dime a dozen but you take the best of the bunch (usually the most accurate). So many of these guys have been kicking for so long that it’s a little silly for teams to think they’ll right their wrongs in a season or two - their kicking mechanics are set for better or worse by the time they enter the league.

Come on man!
I know Hekker is not what he used to be, but he still may turn it around.

Sloman finally made a 42 yard kick.
His missed extra point didn't cost us the game.
We'll see how he does Monday night.

I was making a joke in ragging on Hekker because he doesn't look like he's quite as good as he used to be.

Ok. Maybe I did not follow the thread correctly. I should just not comment after a Rams loss. Never in a good space then.

I posted this in the vent thread, but it bears repeating. Sloman needs to be cut. NOW! You can't miss an easy FG and/or extra point every single game. I don't want to hear about Sloman being young and needing patience. The Rams are supposed to be a contender. We need a kicker that can be competent *today*. We don't have time to let Sloman learn on the job. We had that luxury with GZ because when he was drafted, the Rams were years away from doing anything. This kicking fiasco will cost us games. And it's on McVay. Get rid of this guy. Sloman doesn't even LOOK like a competent kicker - which, for some reason, irritates me even more. I'd be less annoyed if he looked even the tiniest bit athletic. Sloman looks slow, fat, and short-armed.
