Hope he retires, and thankful for the memories he gave us. He should have been a post week 1 signing, solely for the fact to not have a fully guaranteed contract. He should have been enjoying his retirement on the beach, getting a call right about now to kick for 8 games. Not getting cut during the bye week.

Still shouldn’t have handed a relatively unproven guy the job without competition in camp. He was like 6-6 with this team and they crowned him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not talking about Bryant's replacement. I'm talking about Bryant being washed. Falcons did the right thing at first letting Bryant sit at home. Now we have a sad ending to a once great kicker.

NWFALCON 4,338 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Koo has only attempted two kicks over 50 in college going 50% and his longest in the NFL is 41. But I heard DQ really likes his intent and see that Koo is in the correct space to help push the team towards consistency in the third phase. Or i just made that up. rounz and papachaz 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he wouldn't have worked out in the NFL but he's never been given a chance so we don't know. We do already know that Younghoe can't make kicks in the NFL. hes 3 for 6 so technically 50% of the time he makes them every time freefall 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You don’t just forget how to kick after kicking well your ENTIRE life . There’s still no one I would trust more than Matt. O were gonna pretend like he didnt miss a game tying extra point also? Team could be 3-5 or 4-4 with better kicking falconsd56, Falconsfan567 and papachaz 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Realsurfin 1,164 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Matt was probably hurting physically. He was an especially talented kicker. He left with a nice severance package. We still need a proven kicker. We do not have a proven kicker yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
