J-ALL-DAY Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Wait, when did Gould suffer this injury? In practice or last game? I mean I know he's been shaky this season, but he's still been one of the best kickers the last few years. Eventually he was/is going to turn it around IMO, especially with Nelson returning.

My reasoning is that their secondary is the worst part of their team and that by forcing them into the nickel we can expose their lack of depth and give us an even bigger advantage. Solid reasoning for sure. I will note that Barrows and others seem to indicate that Goodwin is likely to remain one of the inactive players. We'll see what happens, but if that's the case, I don't like taking our better players off the field to try and force the Seahawks into matching. That is honestly probably the case with or without Goodwin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch has a bigger leg and so did Pinion. Granted, now it isn't all about leg strength since the kickoffs are shorter but this isn't anything unusual or anything. Gould is a legend who has had a bad start to the season. It's okay, he deserves a benefit of doubt and should be back to form in no time.

I wonder how much of this bad start is because he didn't want to be here in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think he's had a tough time adjusting to a new placeholder and new snapper. Obviously he's had nice success with Nelson and once him and Mitch get on the same page, he should turn it around. I mean it can end up being mental as it was for Akers in 2012. Just gotta hope that isn't the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2lamanaki Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 @NinerNation21- First, I'm not sure how, but you appear to have broken the quote button (at least on mobile). Re: Gould's rough start via not wanting to be here, I would say it's very unlikely given that he signed a 4-year contract with multiple team options on the deadline date. If he didn't want to be here, he was literally 8 hours away from playing one more season and leaving next year (we wouldn't franchise a kicker multiple times). If he was playing on the tag, I think that theory would have more clout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've noticed that sometimes when I quote someone, a "1" and tons of space are added to the quote and I don't know how to get rid of it.

J-ALL-DAY Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Ahkello not practicing today so pretty much won't play again. He must have definitely re-injured his foot or something. Seems like more than just a "minor setback" as Shanahan keeps calling it. Also makes you wonder if he will just end up on the IR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
