Wow thats even worse that he was on the practice squad

It just one of many Hurney mistakes that still haunt this team today. And to think it was one of the only late round picks he actually got right. Ron want to stick with Gano and the rest is history.

I would not consider the end of regulation XP to be a routine kick. It was a pressure kick, he missed. Given an easier but still pressure kick, he missed. 

How close would it needed to have been to be considered an easy kick in OT, inside the 10?

I would argue that DJ put pressure on the kicker in a game winning situation more than the Falcons ever could. That followed Pineiro into OT and had him off his game. Pineiro is not a top kicker and was focused on his game. DJ threw him off really bad and like most kickers this could have carry over until Pineiro breaks this slump. Send him to the sports psychologist and send the bill to DJ Moore.

They sit around all day doing little but kicking the ball when needed. They make millions of dollars to kick it between the sticks. Good kickers make those. Unemployed ones dont.

No it wasn’t. Kicker missed a similar kick to a normal PAT in overtime. No reason to believe he would have made it without the penalty 

Maybe. But you could also say he got rattled from trying to hit a 50 yard XP. As he missed it exactly the same way.

But he sucks. He’s been on six teams in four years. And he’s only here due to injury.

In other words we all know he sucks and it’s a matter of luck when you ask this dude to kick anything, knowing that you’d think DJ wouldn’t have fuged with it, but he isn’t that smart.

Don't blame this on DJ.

Why not.. It was Moore who took his helmet off so everyone could see his face .. 

That was , what , a 48 yard extra point attempt ?  And if had been 15 yards closer we’d have won.

If Robbie Anderson had pulled that boneheaded move, we’d be crucifing him ..

DJ Moore needs to be held to professional standards

Truthfully D.J. Should not have taken his helmet off. However, the problem I have with the penalty being called is that it is not consistently called across the league. 

This. If you can't call it consistent each game throughout the entire league week after week then it has no business being called when a ref just feels like calling it for shits and giggles especially instances that COMPLETELY after the landscape and outcome of a game.

    • Would be happy with Lomu or Iheanachor at 19. Fano is intriguing but I don't think he makes it.
    • II see it this way: We have to look at long-term needs and current depth.  We have filled some key spots with players on one-year contracts.  I firmly believe that they intend to pay Bryce some big bucks next year.  That means you cannot hope that your rookies in 2027 can fill the spots vacated by the veterans you could not afford to re-sign.   We need to consider the cap and the fact that the need to start a rookie is not viewed as a positive by coaches and general managers, but they value first contracts--so it is a delicate balance. I think they have to look at the cap by position--"Can we afford a $50m QB and a $100m OL?  That is half the cap, before you pay your WRs and RBs and TEs.  They need to start getting younger on the OL as well.   I am not suggesting that we draft OT in round 1, but we could and I would get it.  RT on a 1-year deal, they may have intel about Ickey (who was not the best LT, to be honest) and 32-year old Moton is on a bad wheel.   Now if you go by Morgan's history, you can almost tell what position we are going to address with the first pick by noting the positions he has not focused on in free agency.  DT, considering the lack of performance by those not named Derrick Brown and the loss of Robinson, is screaming to be addressed with a top player.  Wharton is not an early down DT (DE if you want to get technical) and our LBs need to be clean--they were not in 2025.  Look for a DT early. I also think we will address ILB (pass covering Will) on day 2.  The other day 2 pick will be an OT, in my view. Do not rule out CB.  We are thin there too, and Jackson is in his final year.  I am not sure that we love Smith-Wade.  Some crackhead on here talked about moving him to S----stay tuned.   Hopefully, a team wanting Ty Simpson will move up and offer us a pick or two to move back. DT WILB OT OC QB  (you heard it here 337th--but this pick could come sooner than you think.      
    • Bryce had some bad games, but he had some good ones as well (and this is coming from a Bryce skeptic). I think it's a little simplistic to put all the offensive woes on Bryce, you also should be looking at O-line play, receiver play, RB and TE play, and also coaching. There's no way when I look at the offense in it's totality am I ready to say that a so-so to bad offense was all on Bryce, and, I also can't say that we don't need to upgrade any position on offense, save Tetairoa McMillan (who also wasn't perfect) and maybe the starting guards and T-mo.
