They timed that pick perfectly and started the kicker run didn't they? How are the other rookie kickers doing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about that. I know they had some for the game today. Not sure if they’re always that way though. I came expressly for the game, fútbol, and to see the countryside. So I didn’t spend too much time in the pubs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been totally impressive, but until we get past a Jim Nance jinx, there'll always be a hitch in my breath during the snap. You know that jinx . . . "Gary Anderson lines up for a 39 yard kick. He's been perfect all year . . . " or "Blair Walsh, the rookie record holder sets up . . . " Maybe I'm being too pessimistic right now, but he'll miss at some point. Hopefully it's when we're up 27 points in the 3rd. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Gink doesn't pick it, It looks like the CB had a really good break on the ball too. Could've been a pick six by him too. Really rough decision by Rodgers there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having short passing game targets in BOTH Hockenson AND Jones for outlets, while also having Jefferson and Addison drawing double coverage, will have SOMEBODY wide open that Darnold CAN'T miss! How ewill opponents stop THAT???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 (edited) Per his wife’s instagram, Will the Thrill only got 4 hours of sleep the night before the game trying to adjust to the new time zone. Still locked in when it mattered. One of four kickers that hasn’t missed a kick (FGs and XPs combined) and of those 4 he: is tied for the most attempts (25) is tied for the most 50+ yard FG attempts has the longest made FG (58 yards) Edited October 7 by JDBrocks 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 A win is a win but a disappointing showing imo up 17-0 in the first half but we managed to let them back in the game Offense was bad & ST was sloppy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
