STFU
Saw some kids on Saturday that looked good too. Maybe Craigslist?
Lots of good kickers booming accurate from downtown and up close in the league, just none of them on the Packers roster.
He's got a penis and a pulse. Of course you want to fawk him.
Goldie dropping the gloves! Get 'em girl!

No need
Bring it Goldiedumdum. Letβs hear your wisdom.
and Goldiedumdum is all you got??
Goldie is an icon here at X4, a real treasure. Please don't fuck with her. I know she takes some good natured ribbing on occasion, but again, please NO personal attacks. She is part of the X4 fabric that makes X4 great. Thank you!
We got cho back Goldie.
It's bad enough I'd consider giving Carlson another chance. It's definitely harder trying to find a kicker that can deal with the latter season shit storm challenge that 1265 delivers. They want to find a strong leg guy. Narve is brutal in a way he doesn't seem like he'll work out of. At the very least he'll be available for a while. Could stick him on the practice squad if they think they can fix him. He's out of game opportunities for now even though conditions were tough today, imo. Can't miss two in a game when given an opportunity . It was glaring today.

He misses everything to the right. For the last month.
He wasn't exactly lights out as a college kicker either. Neither was Carlson. It's like Gutey is looking for guys with big legs that he thinks his staff can coach up.
Maybe find a guy that knew how to make kicks in college or, ideally, in the NFL. I think past performance is still the best predictor of future success.
The fact it's harder to find a kicker than it is to find a replacement for Aaron Fucking Rodgers just flabbergasts me.

They don't value it. Just like they didn't value getting a competent special teams coaches for years because they didn't think it was that important.
Forever Goldie

Do Packers have competent ST coach now? Ranking hasn't improved much since Bissaccia got paid.

To say they don't value it is ludicrous. They're just shitty at evaluating talent at that position.
Apologies Goldie. Beer plus game day emotions did me in.
Absolutely 0.0% of us can relate.
I was kinda hoping for an entire series of threads as a mew #1 Boyfriend Kicker flits through Goldie's mind each week.

You're a good person Goldie to forgive.

She must not have any Sicilian blood.
Can we find a kicker who can not only make FG's but line up onside and can rush the passer?
This has become a John Hughes thread. And that's a good thing.

A hungover sconnie dumdum with regrets - thatβs a first.

Alex Hale
Played for OK St. in college.
Demovsky mentioned this morning that Bisaccia had some (unsolicited) positive updates on Hale last week.
Maybe give him a chance and let Narveson sit in the corner for a week?
No juice box for him either!
I think we're all missing the obvious solution. This team needs to get back to its glory! That's right, we need a kicker with a UNIBAR!
On second thought, we also shouldn't rule out a barefoot kicker or that guy with no toes and a squared off shoe.
Dude had range.
How about an ambidextrous Kicker. You know, he'd go out for a FG and the holder would set up like he's kicking right-footed. Then the Holder switches sides, as does the Kicker, just before the snap. BOOM - defense totally confused!
Right down the middle, or left no doubt. I like it.
@Goldie posted:Younghoe Koo split the uprights on a career-long 58-yard field goal. He made four field goals and two extra-point attempts.
In four games, Atlanta only has five offensive touchdowns, and Kirk Cousins has just as many touchdown passes as interceptions (four).
Though it's too early to panic about the Falcons' $180 million investment in Cousins, the offense isn't in sync yet and needs help from the defense and special teams.
Fortunately for the Falcons, Koo has made all his field goals (nine) and extra-point attempts (six) this season. He's the most reliable closer on this team until Cousins and the offense find a rhythm.
Ok, this isnβt Packer related, itβs a very long stretch, but damn, love this kicker. πππ
He's not wrong.
