Kicker yet?

Of all the things going on, we still haven't had an announcement of a kicker yet. Yesterday they said they had some coming in, but no names, no contracts.

Sheeesh.

Snag one off of a practice squad and go on. At this point, they're all middling to bad. Just need to be able to kick off and hit a 35 yarder.

It doesn’t matter. We’ll let Zylstra squib kick when it’s our turn to kickoff at the beginning of the half. Outside of that, we don’t need a kicker.

Latest word was that Gonzalez might actually be able to go (no tear, just a strain) so I suspect they're awaiting word on that front before going elsewhere.

Just my opinion, that would be idiotic. There are 3 games left, and if I saw correctly they're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.  Zane has been one of the few bright spots this year.

Instead of having him risk further injury, why not bring in a young guy or even a guy that you might want as camp fodder next year?

At least for this week, unless he's 100% healed.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
