LaurentRobinsonDaGawd Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) Tavecchio is trash, can't risk losing games or missing playoffs due to a bum kicker. Fix this now DQ and TD. He's been god awful all preseason. Edited August 16, 2019 by LaurentRobinsonDaGawd Number2, IamFRESCO1 and bossFALCON™ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have tough competition for the division, and playoffs, and it could come down to a simple win or lose, which could be decided by a kick or two. Missed waaaaaay to many already in preseason.

NWFALCON Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Someone said he struggled kicking from the right hash in practice. I wonder what happened with the second kick because he was talking to the snapper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the REGULAR SEASON Giorgio Tavecchio is 21-for-26 (80.8%) in his career. He was 5-for-5 (100.0%) last year for the Falcons. He is 5-for-6 (83.3%) from over 50 yards in his career.

There are concerns from camp, he is getting better and hopefully it’s all sorted out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kicker is one of the most fickle positions in sports unless they have a history of being consistent. Everyone can name a kicker who had a good year and then a bad one.

The coverage isn’t consistent but I’m not sure how many “starters” are out there during the preseason. I’m assuming not many.

I'm not gonna get my panties in a wad about meaningless preseason games. You've got to remember that we're not running our starting unit out there in any area of the team. That makes such a major different to performance. OL tonight looked like garbage when the starters were in but I highly doubt its gonna look that bad come week 1 in Minnesota. Why? Because Alex Mack didn't play. Having your starting center out in the OL is like trying to drive a car with only 3 tires. Tavecchio will be fine.

Barner is the only guy who showed something on returns. He is hurt, Green has been a disappointment so far. Bosher is punting 35-40 yarders. I think biggest concern for this team is ST so far.

You mean the same Oakland Raiders that have been one of the worst NFL franchises of the last 15 years? That Oakland Raiders? The team that paid 10 years and $100M to a coach who hadn't coached an NFL game in 10 years and wasn't all that good the first time he was an NFL coach? That's the team that we're talking about? That franchise? Really? Jesus Christ!! gkgrimes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw what happened to Jason Elam and many other kickers. I don’t care about OL but kicker has been struggling from camp. On the bright side he is looking better now.
