I still believe in Eddy Pineiro

I honestly don't know what to think about Eddy.

I don't hate him, he's pretty stable, but he doesn't have a strong leg compared to the rest of the league. We can and have had worse as a kicker, but we have also had better.

Wish we would have taken a good hard look at bates coming out of the USFL but he's with detroit now. Hopefully there's some other good kicking prospects coming out this year, or someone who is finally putting it all together and we can pick them up.

Most accurate kicker in NFL history, huddle after one bad game in which he got his knee drained..... "CUT THAT BUM"!!!

Those imminent takes are some of the worse things about our fans. I even seen cut chubba posts, holy God find another team hobby you scum smooth brains..

I don't think so. He's another Gano. Put's up great stats on easy kicks. But can't deliver with the game on the line. We have a lot of draft picks this year and I'd love for us to take the best kicker in the draft. Enough is enough.

I hope he is as good as Gano was.  With the game on the line, Gano made many more than he missed.  

Made three of them during the 2015 run.  In 2017, he made a big kick to beat the Patriots, and in 2018, made a 60 plus yarder to beat the Giants.  He didn't make every single clutch kick, but then not one single kicker in the NFL makes all of them.  The only big miss that I remember is the opening game of the 2016 season against Denver.

    • Honestly, I view the rest of this season like every game is a division game - meaning you can throw the records out.  Throw the perceived favorites out.  Every week, we have to show up and punch them in their mouth.  We’re gonna have to gut it out.  We can’t go into games against well coached teams and think, “well, the Rams already got that one, McVay is just too good of a coach and they’re too talented.”  “Can’t beat the Niners.  Shanahan is one of the best and they just play everyone so tough, even with injuries.”  We have to go into each game feeling like everyone counted us out and we have to show them why they’re wrong.  And speaking of the Niners - that’s the exact blueprint we need to be looking at - for the last, it seems like at least 5 years, they have been decimated with injuries.  And they still contend to win their division and make a run in the playoffs every year.  Even while starting a plethora of QBs.  Even with their best defensive players being out for the bulk of seasons…  their DNA doesn’t change.  They compete.  Their standard is winning and nothing less, so even if you’re the 3rd stringer forced into action, either show up and play to that level or find another team.  This should be our approach and I think the Saints game was an important wake up call… I occasionally listen to whatever ESPN show is on sports radio in the mornings with Chris Camry and I believe it was after we beat the Packers, they asked him about us and he said, “they’re a young team learning how to win.”  And that is about as accurate or a description as you can get.  It explains the hiccups and the struggles.  But it also explains why it looks so good when we put it all together.  What we need now is our guys to have that light bulb come on as a collective and never look back.  I hope last week was the start of that and it continues tonight and for the rest of the season..
    • The veterans played better last night and they actually were looking for Kon but Bridges and Sexton went for a combined 2-15 from three. That is so bad.
    • https://www.talkbasket.net/206848-lamelo-ball-frustrated-by-hornets-struggles-amid-durability-concerns "Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer." Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.
