Got to wonder about this as the game progresses....got to get that in better shape or it could COST us some games.....Suprised that CPJ didn't go for that!
 
Our field goal kicker needs to be taken behind the barn and put out of his misery. He's costing us the game right now along with our fumbles.
 
in all fairness though....maybe he's got too many duties punting, kickoffs, & FGs alot to juggle & maybe the coaches need to rethink this....BUT saw things such as the snap & hold were OUT OF Blair's control for sure....I didn't see that prior to the replay...TOUGH BREAK
 
Holder didn't do too terribly well, but that duo is just not very good right now.

Have the holder and the snapper practice repetitively that action a couple hundred times in a row for a few days, and they'll get it.
 
Yea the holds are taking the Blair out of his natural rhythm as a kicker because he is constantly have to pause

In fairness to Blair, he's got a cannon for a kickoff. Bell never put them into the endzone.
 
I think the second miss was the snap/hold, the kicker had to hesitate, and it was 48 yards. I think the kicker did fine.They Need to work on snap/hold/kick timing. If PJ has confidence in this kicker I don't question. PJ rules!
 
Well, he's proven that he's got a pretty strong foot. If we can work on the snap/hold and he can get a little more accurate, then we've got a hell of a kicker.
 
He needs to be the punter/kick off man. Not the place kicker.
The first one didn't quite bend back enough, but had plenty of leg. The second was the snap all the way. Not many kickers would have made that.
 
We are complaining about a 47 yard fg and a 48 yard fg, one of which had a bad snap and the other hit the post? Damn. We are pretty rough. I would have thought we might give a pass to a young kicker for kicks over 40 yards. Last week I understood the criticism better, but this week I think this is a bit harsh.
