So you want to add an extra 15-20 yards to every kickoff return just to open a roster spot for a backup lineman that will never see the field.

Did you see the Chiefs' field position on our two kickoffs today? I don't think it could have been much worse with Baker doing the job and at least then we wouldn't have dead weight on the team.

Cut Lloyd and Kasay and find a new kicker that can do both. It really is that simple. Kasay just doesn't have it.

WTF is "it"?

When is the last time Kasay missed an easy kick before today?

When is the last time he shanked more than one in a game?

Our once great kicking team is horrendous. Jason Baker takes WAY too long to punt, and is inconsistant. Kasay is getting old and has missed 3 makeable field goals in a row. Lloyd can boom it, but not consistantly like last season. We may be looking at an overhaul on special teams in 2010. Coach included.

I'd love to get a young premiere kicker that can do both. Hell let's get an elite punter while we're at it. But until then Lloyd is well worth the roster spot. Again, you think a backup lineman that will never see the field gives us a better shot to win rather than an extra 15-20 yards every kickoff?

Chiefs? LOL Umm... ok, I can't trust your judgment if you can't even figure out what team we're playing. And you're also ignoring a full season where he broke a record for touchbacks, and being among the leaders in TB% this season and saying he should be cut based on a umm.. two kicks. Oh, and Baker and Kasay are both horrible at kicking off so yeah, it could be much worse.

Sorry I was in the middle of a conversation with my friend about the SD/KC game today and I guess it just slipped. He was great last season and I'm happy about it but his rate of touchbacks has been awful when we've really needed them. Baker's onside kicking is about equivalent to what Rhys has been doing most of the year.

Lloyd is #2 in the NFL in TB% and that's with teams returning kicks 5 yards deep because our STs coverage is terrible. You take him out of the equation and we go from having one of the best at kickoffs to one of the worst (either Kasay or Baker qualifies) and put more pressure on a coverage unit that's already dead last in the league. Good lord, who is so important that we need this roster spot for anyway?

Richardson needs to give kasay a nice little bonus for his time in carolina and in return he retires at the end of the season and we get a new kicker that can make field goals and kickoff decently.

Our whole special team needs an overhaul and that starts with the ST Coach.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By HPPantherzfan · Posted

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
