Dude looked like his head wasn’t in the game, no way it’s close if he does his job. Hopefully he got it out of his system.

Was waiting on everyone to come in here and bash him like they do Gano but a win tends to give people short memories. I am rooting for the guy as he will be a cheap alternative but he’s gotta be better than today.

The missed field goals were not his fault.  I'm not sure any kicker in the league would have hit either one.  If anything, it was impressive on the 2nd one that he had the awareness to avoid another block.  He went 80% on extra points and was probably a little worried about being blocked again.  The line needs to get better because this is how you ruin a good kicker.

There was nothing difficult about the one he missed

The line collapsed on both.  If he kicked that 2nd field goal straight, it would have been blocked again.  If you are referring to the extra point, what do you expect from a rookie kicker who just had the line collapse on you 2 times in a row?

The last kick he made was close, I was afraid I saw a problem creeping in right there and yep.

 

You can see these guys starting to drift, when they have those kicks drawing or leaking and almost miss, and then they adjust. The adjustments are usually when full blown out of whack starts.

      Rookie minicamp

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.

      I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
