Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

Stop missing extra points you little bitch.

Haskins, you played like shit the 1st 3 quarters. Way to be resilient, you were very good in the 4th quarter. Maybe we just need to play up tempo all 60 minutes when he's playing. Way to finally scramble for some 1st downs. MORE OF THAT!!

Geez Louise OL. What a pathetic performance in crunch time.

C'mon Browns!!

Hopkins is stealing his paychecks.

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

I think we can officially say we're a drastically improved team missing a few pieces from being pretty good.

Beat Pittsburgh and almost beat Seattle even though we played like shit 75% of the game.

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

Tough loss.

F Hopkins, he has to be done here after this season.

- the two turnovers and the missed Xtra point, and it's at least OT, probably an outright W.

+ A Smith, A Gibson, C Holcomb, & KPL, and I like their chances if there is a rematch in the playoffs.

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

He continues to miss in big moments. (2016 he missed that kick in OT vs the Bengals in London) I’ve seen enough. Unfortunately, we’re stuck with him for the rest of the season.

-Haskins still can’t read coverages, improved in the second half, but still stares down WR’s
- Defense gave up a few big plays, but kept Metcalf and Lockett in check
- Thomas, and McKissic played great
- I like our chances in a potential playoff rematch

I want to roll with Haskins the rest of the way. I want to see more 4th qtr DH before we dump him.

If AS is the plan next year...fuck me...

4th quarter DH is better than AS. 1st half + DH isn't better than anyone. But we always start slow with AS too. Can we risk Haskins turning it over to see the potential of a possibly more powerful offense? Tough call. Pretty much been that way all year.

Rivera already said AS is starting if healthy tho.

Hopkins has missed two extra points this year. His conversion rate is right on par with the league average. Missing a game tying extra point in the closing minutes of a game is one thing, but you can’t blame a kicker for a loss because he missed an extra point with 14 minutes left in an 11 point game. Hopkins doesn’t suck, Hopkins is average. I’m all for replacing replacing him with a better kicker, the problem is that most unsigned kickers tend to be worse than average.

I agree.

Might need to use one of our 7th rounders on a kicker. Drafting one is the best way to guarantee you get a high upside K.

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

I wanted Hopkins gone a few years ago when he was blowing kicks regularly.

I'd be happy to see him go now, but like other people have pointed out, everybody else out there is either just as good, or worse...

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

The defense was gashed most of this game on the ground, they showed up in the clutch tho.

Offense just sucks, no other way around it. Haskins is bad but he doesn't have many weapons to work it just like Alex doesn't.

Terry , J.D and Logan Thomas are legit the only options.

BTW, How about Thomas?? Holy shit.

Overall, I figured we'd lose by more and I'm glad this team fights in every game.

8-8 and a division crown would be a huge improvement

He's missed a kick in NINE games this year. There's only two kickers in the league (who have attempted at least 25 FGs) with a worst FG percentage. That is not average.

Hopkins didn't lose the game today, but that missed extra point factored in big time. If he kicks better this year, I can find at least two if not three more wins.

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

At least the field looked good in a December game. That was a pleasant surprise

Re: Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread
 

That missed pat would be the last straw. That game at least should have been in OT. Enough is enough.
