Andy Lee cut. Palardy is our Punter


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

I hope this turns out to go better than I expect. You could make a legit argument that Palardy was the worst punter in the NFL last year. It'll be a giant kick in the balls if Palardy struggles while Lee signs elsewhere and consistently bangs out boomers. It'll even be a bigger kick in the balls if that situation is accompanied by Gano still here shanking crucial kicks.

Didn't they say that we save no money by doing this? What the fug

Save money next year and now we won't be looking for a punter next year (of course this would be assuming Palardy would've found a team) 

But yeah I trust Palardy as much as I trust Gano

So basically we could have had an all pro punter this year and then cut him and been in the same position. Got it. 

I know you hate Lee, but that makes zero sense

This is Hurney's call. If Palardy struggles once real pressure is on, it's his head.

Lots of things in the past should have ushered Hurney out of the building, but he kept on shitting out bad draft after bad draft, and overpaying players that don't equate to wins....still couldn't shake him.

This will be no different...JR is happy again.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
