Although I find it funny that Kai easily made a 50 yarder that would have been good from 60 and come up short on his kickoffs more often then not, but Billy Cundiff can boom them through the back of the endzone and struggles to hit the distance necessary for 50+ yard FGs.Quote:

Harvin had a couple of nice runbacks from the end zone....the kicks fro forbath were not short, but not out of the end zone either. Later, it looked like forbath was told to kick to one side of the end zone or the other kind of like gano used to do.
Only one game, but forbath may be a keeper.

How's that prediction working out for ya?Quote:

Even I didn't realize the effect these field goals can have on the team as a whole. You can't deny the difference in momentum from last weeks short miss and this weeks long make.
I hope we found a keeper.
He is the Supreme Kai (borrowed from Dragonball Z)
Maybe with a little technique he can start getting it through the end zone on a regular basis? Odd that he can 3 step a 50+ yarder, but can't nail touchbacks, when Cundiff was the exact opposite.. (Im not sure Smith is the man to teach him anything though, but hopefully he'll get better..) He nailed a couple, so it's possible.. Hell, if teams does their job you can usually get em' behind the 20 anyway.. Still playin with fire though, especially with our outstanding teams/coach.. :P
The problem is he line drives his kickoffs. They barely get to the endzone and they're low so the coverage unit is in a bad spot. Even a couple of his touchbacks were low kicks that just barely got over Harvin's head and bounced out of the back of the end zone.Quote:

Given that he did not kick off in college, I thought he did a good job on all fronts yesterday.
