This preseason, Hopkins made three of five field goal attempts with a long of 27.Thats not very good.Yeah his kickoffs were good but we need the points.Most of our drives stall short of the endzone,we need someone who can get us points.

Just wanted to say that I completely agree.

While Kai Forbath didn't seem to have as strong a leg as other kickers, he was very accurate.

I seriously hope that the Redskins haven't completely screwed themselves by letting Kai go.
