Kicker threads. It’s good to be a Rams fan right now. It’s better than LB threads or Center threads that usually dominate the board every year.

Let’s go!

The Rams have had some great Kicker names recently. Dicker, Karty, Gay.

Hoping the troubles this year are corrected, obviously. I’m with the crowd that says it’s mostly an operational issue up front. Self scouting and fundamentals etc.
 
It pisses me off that we can’t have a kicker kick well for us. It was hell after Greg the Leg, and we found a guy. Let him walk, and it’s been hell again since. We all know about Dicker, the Chargers great kicker. Did yall see Lucas Havercik kick the longest field goal ever for the Packers??

People say Karty was kicking it low, but I have yet to see that on the FGs that weren't blocked. He gets a lot of height on his kicks. So that means one of two things are true: (1) every time he kicks it low, it gets blocked or (2) the kicks got blocked because the defenders were able to get to the ball too early in the arc. If it's #2, the issue here would seem to be either blocking or Karty taking too long on his approach (or both).
His kicks were low in the Eagles game. Our special teams blocking made it even easier to block. Its not a chronic problem I ever saw with Karty, just seemed to be the case for that game. Personally didn't even bother to look at the Whiners game one since I'm still too sick of that game to review that one.

Havrisik was awful, glad we let him go.

Give it time....

The (I hate) Reeder, Alex Ward and Shelton threads will soon be playing at a theatre near you.:laugh1:
 
I don't think most players are over paid..... NFL Football players for the most part put their necks on the line everyday for 8 months. And the average career for an NFL player is 3 years, so you can't blame them for commanding big bucks.
I think the whole damn league is overpaid when my NFL Sunday Ticket price goes up every fucking year so they can give themselves more money. The elite make $100m a year with endorsements, not sure what line of work you're in but I think most feel all athletes are overpaid for what they provide to the country.

Doesn't change my passion for the game of football though.

Imagine blaming a kicker for a blocked kick when the lineman has penetrated 4 yards behind the line of scrimmage.

Blows my mind.
