I would rather have a kicker who's 90% accurate on ONE LEG then washed up kickers like Walsh or Georgio who cant even even get their **** together in practice or preseason games. They ONE job that's it.....and that needs to be surgical. Matt Bryant even though old has higher IQ and experience than most kickers in last decade. Gio didn't either. He made 100%.

I was at dome the whistle went well before the kick. MS always told the kickers to kick it even on a timeout. Schwarzwald likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the fact still stands he needed two tries to make it. He missed his first one. I said what IF he misses it? Is he still clutch in the eyes of everyone here?

Posted August 31 Can we start a new Forum called 'Argue Like A Bunch Of Kindergarteners About Matt Bryant' so all this bullcrap can disappear from TAFT? A Pimp Named Slickback™ and falcons007 like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every one in the dome knew TO and he went through the motion. That’s what coaches wanted him to do on TO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 31 1 minute ago, dmo_dlo said: So we ended up paying him more to skip the camp!! This is a valid point!!! He got an extended vacation. But at least from all outward appearances he maintained by kicking/ working out. At least we hope. If he fails to do well it’s going to get real ugly... If he does well like we all hope much crow to be eaten. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 31 36 minutes ago, falconidae said: Problem with that is there's 1.3 mil dead money on the books from his contract last year. Not even worth it for the Falcons to do that. Oh I get it but I would imagine he would have had other offers from other teams even at his age but maybe not. It was like he was waiting on the Falcons or nothing else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
