Tyler Jones in...so what does it mean for Hall?dmek25 05-21-2006, 11:21 AM whummel welcome! EXoffender 05-21-2006, 11:57 AM Hall's ability to stay healthly is the only concern. That Guy 05-21-2006, 09:46 PM jones has nearly no shot at replacing hall as scary as that sounds. ArtMonkDrillz 05-22-2006, 10:35 AM The only thing that gets my attention is the fact that the guy can kick off well. I hate seeing kickoffs constantly get fielded from the 15 yard line. hail_2_da_skins 05-22-2006, 10:52 AM The only thing that gets my attention is the fact that the guy can kick off well. I hate seeing kickoffs constantly get fielded from the 15 yard line. Kickoffs have been a big problem. Hall cannot get the ball to the endzone. That puts a lot of pressure on the coverage team when the opponents start the runback on the 15 yardline everytime. Hall has been a decent placekicker, but his kickoffs SUCK. MTK 05-22-2006, 11:22 AM To address the question this thread asks... what does this mean for Hall?? He now has someone to hang out with and eat hotdogs with in camp?? That's about it. TheMalcolmConnection 05-22-2006, 11:27 AM Honestly, it puts less pressure. Danny Smith kept preaching last year to get the kicks high so the coverage team could get there. skindogger47 05-22-2006, 02:57 PM Some of these replies are insane. Hall only for kickoffs? WTF? He can't kick the ball tho the god damn 15 yard line on a kickoff. John Hall is a good kicker, and seems to only hurt himself ON KICKOFFS. Not to mention cutting him this year will cost about as much as keeping him because of accelerated signing bonuses. Hall is a good field goal kicker, the best since Lohmiller, and there is no reason to cut him. CUT DEREK FROST, sign this Aussie to handle punts and kickoffs, and we will see a significant improvement in special teams this year. 9-12 in NFL Europe just doesnt impress me enough to warrant cutting a vet who's been with the team for 4(?) years. Monkeydad 05-22-2006, 03:32 PM I think the Skins should hold a public tryout for the job. What's to lose? Of course, we'd want people who have actually BEEN a placekicker (or soccer player) but we do need someone to replace Hall. He can come to the tryouts too, if he can fairly win the job, good for him...but he hasn't been getting the job done. MonkFan4Life 05-22-2006, 04:10 PM I was upset when we didn't go after Vinatieri ( Don't know how to spell his name ), I felt that one of the positions we NEEDED to upgrade/solidify was kicker. I thought the Skins failed in that area but I just chalked that up to the loyalty of Joe Gibbs. |
