Once Again,kicking Game Let Us Down
 
once again frost and hall screw us,how can you bring those 2 back after last yr? some of the personel descisions are baffling,theisman said that last yr we were the worst in football where the other teams started their drives,how can you spend all that money on free agents and not upgrade these positions? Gibbs needs to get his head out of his ass and wake up,he's turned control of the off over to saunders,he doesnt coach def,wtf else has he got to do? how about wandering down to special teams and figuring it the fck out

Frost had one bad punt tonight. Let's lay off him he wasn't a problem.

Hall hit 3 of 4 and missed a long one at the end. I'm not ready to cut him over that.

The game shouldn't have come down to him having to hit a 48 yarder.

Frost averaged 43.0 per punt tonight by the way.

I still petition to get Novak back. Haha.

It's not just that John Hall is past his prime, he sucks hard in the clutch.

Definitely not the guy you want it all to come down on in the last seconds like in tonights game.

Defense sucked. Can't blame it on the kickers.

I'm new to this site, but I've been watching this team long enough to know that Hall hasn't hit anything over 40 yards consistently in a long time.

how can you take up for these guys? frost is gauranteed to shank 1 a game,how many other punters in the league can you say that about? the only good thing i can say about him is at least he kicks it further than hall on kickoffs,but not by much,oh,and nice tackle
as far as hall goes,did you have any confidence he was going to make that kick? I had none,wasnt even dissapointed,I fkin knew it was coming,as far as his other kicks go,those were frickin extra points,I could make those with a week of practice

I definitely agree. The secondary looked like it was in la-la land half the time and the offense couldn't get it done on 3rd down.

There's plenty of blame to be handed around. I just think it shouldn't have all come down on hall. Hes nowhere near consistent and there was 17 seconds left on the clock. I think there were other options than just putting all the weight on his shoulders when the coaches should know by now he's not a clutch kicker.

Like I said he hit one bad punt out of 5. For that night he averaged 43.0. Sorry but that's not a problem.

Frost isn't to blame, but 2 stupid personal foul penalties on Sean Taylor really didn't help us tonight.

Dude, I couldn't agree more! I started to get pissed when we didn't go for it on 4th down. Christ, everyone here had to have their doubts about him making that kick. And lets not put this all on Hall.

Betts, please learn how to either dodge a tackle or break a tackle. Our red zone offense was terrible.

Where in the hell was Cooley or Sellars when we were down that close. A super bowl team wins these kind of games, not lose them. No way we should have lost this game. This loss could very well come back to haunt us later in the season. God, this sucks a root.

well i dont agree at all,and you didnt address my hall question,which i guess says ,no,you didnt expect hall to make it either,and yes frost did have a decent night punting,but he had yet another shank,and sometimes he has 2 a game,and it just depends on how much time is left and where we are on the field when he does do his shank on how bad it affects us and is talked about.Tonight his shank came early and was forgot about,and I'm not blaming this loss on hall or frost,the blame can go to a lot of places,the thread was kicking game let us down once again,which it did,not cost us the game
why dont you take a poll: are you happy with our kickers or should we have spent some of our free agent money or draft on upgrading those positions

Special Teams sucked tonight too. This was bad game all around. If I had to blame one individual though, it would be Taylor. Jesus, doesn't he know when not to play like an idiot?

Forst played good tonight...so lets not point the finger at him.
