How is this possible?

It happened to the Steelers this year and they didn't have a back up either. I mean you don't really count on the kicker getting hurt sometimes poo happens

I understand that, but at least know who your emergency kicker is. Taking a poll right before the game is pathetic.

WFT went through the same two weeks ago, and had the same results as us. They had to go for 2pt conversion the rest of their games, and their punter (tress way) had not attempted a field goal since 2009. It’s not like these punters, are asked to practice field goals at practice… that’s like asking a receiver to take hand offs and run HB dives and zone reads…..  what we saw today is normal in the NFL, unless you are a franchise that’s fortunate to have a dual threat Punter.

How is it possible that our punter has never attempted a kick off or a short fg? It’s hard to fathom. 

 Because he is a punter and not a kicker.  Why hasn’t our long snapper ever played WR?  Hard to fathom

I guess I always took it for granted that teams know their personel and what happens if a kicker gets injured. 

 

Apparently we had never even addressed it. Tall about a poo show. 

Hey genius. How many football games have you watched, and how many times has this happened. If you post like it’s a general occurrence to fit your fire Rhule narrative, fine. Say that. You have a punter who is punter specific, it’s the risk you run. Deal with it.

    • Very Odd, seems someone is lying about the "love" between Seattle and canales.  I did read some about B.johnson and he said he wanted a stable good job and that 5 out 8 teams that filled this past season, will be open again in three years. I somewhat get his point, but he's lost millions the past two years waiting. Plus great job are never open cause great team don't fire their HCs. He put lots of time and sweat into the lions and wanted to enjoy the good times longer.    I do think tepper made other coaches not want to be here. That all-star staff had as you stated had connections around the league and coaches are no different when someone contracts them and goes " How was it Carolina ??'.... " Love the area, hated the work environment/owner". They did get Brian Callahan to interview and had a 2nd one lined up, but in just one interview titans hired him. I'd much rather had him or just name evero HC instead.  Nobody wanted Ron Rivera either and he interviewed everywhere. No one wants this job..... even the jags got recent SB winning Doug Peterson.... I truly think Carolina coaching rep is in the dump and they fuged up waiting for Callahan. Panic move. This is my pure guess too, Jim Caldwell is the acting/real HC and canales is the OC.
    • I go back to the hole the Panthers put themselves in and his positive track record with getting production from ‘problem’ QBs. Which, we have one.  I go to the idea people were putting forth on these younger HC prospects - that maybe you take a guy early and let him grow and give him all the help you can. Like a QB go figure. I think that is pretty much where it is right now. I think Canales could be good.   
    • It's like with Friterer was the same as Canales. 'He's a great guy' and everyone loves him but Seattle had a HC opening with ties and no interview, even with a playoff appearance in a weak NFCS to boost his name. The NFL is all about ties and connections. It's so much more a small pond than most sectors could be so the corporate NFL bs is sooooo much thicker. All of those openings and no HC interviews? B Johnson is an anomaly, like a Kiffin, where usually you have guys that will go whereever to take a promotion even if it looks terrible for a distance, Wilks to Arizona comes to mind. It's weird and interesting how the NFL mirrors and then deviates from the rest of corporate America in their MOs.
