This. It's time for a 2-for-1 swap. We need to find a young kicker, and let Kasay retire with dignity (ie: force him to retire), and send Lloyd back to the soccer league.

Lloyd is to fat and out of shape to play competitive soccer now :D

I suspect it is a combination of things including: poor practice, not enough practice, and misinformed mechanical instruction. Most of the problems I believe could be linked directly back to Crossman and that this would be observable if one were to have the privilege of being able to closely scrutinize the team and coaches at practice.

Could be... I don't think you'll find too much argument on here that Crossman shouldn't be fired... what can we do. ST continues to hurt this team and with the way the offense is sucking... well, you know where I'm going...

Let's see...some special teams notes from the game yesterday:

We kicked off only twice, neither were touchbacks (from our kickoff specialist), and both were returned for a combined 63 yards = FAILURE.

In comparison, of the four kickoffs we returned, we gained a total of 45 yards = FAILURE.

We fielded 6 punts yesterday with a whopping total of 12 return yards = FAILURE.

We attempted two field goals (39, 44) and missed both = FAILURE.

We muffed a crucial late-game punt, ending all hope of a comeback = FAILURE.

Out of 6 punts, Baker's longest of the day was 49 yards = FAILURE.

Crossman = FAILURE.

I was wondering if someone would find a way to blame the fact that our offense could only score once on a player who has nothing to do with offense, sure enough.

When is the obligatory "It's all Julius Peppers' fault" thread?

Maybe it was one of those seven of eight ducks Jake threw over the middle.

It's too late to bring in someone new this season. Next season, rebuild definitely. But for now let's just stick with the only guy who CAN get us a TB. Kasay couldn't do it once out of ten tries. We don't need an extra body anyway, the season is lost...unless we could bring in a WR. Not that we'd use him anyway.

In other news, I say Lloyd at Harris Teeter on Saturday. He eats bananas.

i'm telling you guys, and i stated this last season.... it's his approach! most kickers take a 10 yard approach on kickoffs. he takes a 5 yard approach and has this awkward little half hitch in it which slows his momentum so its really like a 3 yard approach. if he would develop a full 10 yard running approach he'd kick it in the net every time!

why can't the kicking coach see this? i can.

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

this is the right choice. like jake, their time has come and gone and we then to cling to players.

it's becoming obvious fox just can't let go. he reminds me of my mom.

      "Stop overreacting. It's only one loss. The season isn't dead."

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I don't think anybody with a brain thought or thinks we are a legit super bowl contender this year.  I do LOVE the young core group that is forming. Part of the reason I defend Bryce Young is that if he is not good enough, we're going to waste a lot of this young talent we have anyway.  You don't go from 5-12 to super bowl contender in one offseason unless you get a major injury back or get an insane free agent haul. We currently can't hang with the best teams in the league.  We are also much closer than we were 365 days ago. Progress is good. There's still an outside shot at the playoffs, but I am really excited to see what Dan Morgan does with this offseason. Rico Dowdle a big decision. Jalen Coker, Brycen Tremaine, Cade Mays, Austin Corbett, Brady Christensen, Nick Scott and Christian Rozeboom are the guys we have to make decisions on. But this rebuild should be over next August. Or we have to do it again.  Improvements needed at pass rush and linebacker for sure.  Expecting us to win a super bowl this year is like expecting a kindergartener to do calculus. Is it possible? I guess so. but 99.9% shot it aint happening. We played like doo-doo against the bills, but that was definitely a penciled in loss from the day the schedule came out. Candidly though, if Bryce is ever going to be it, next year is the year we need to start being really good.

      Yeah he put us in too big of a hole in which we had to pass more.  3rd and long with a slow roll out and he tried to tuck in and run with a fumble in the redzone.  3rd and long with an INT on our side of the field.  Then we get to like the 10ish yard line with less that 30 second and no timeouts (even Greg said we have to try to quick throws here), what does Dalton do?  Take a sack allowing us to barely rush a FG out (which missed due to being rushed).  You absolutely can't take a sack there.  Throw in getting sacked 6 additional times with 2 additional turnovers.  He also missed TMac on a TD where Shaq was trying to cover him and missed an open JHJ on a big gain.  Box Score watching won't tell the story yet people are going to try to do it anyway.   Now it's pretty clear he isn't the upgrade that some were claiming he is, but they can spin it differently I'm sure.

      The combined record of teams we've beaten: 9-21. Some of y'all get fooled so easily.
