two things that give me concern about shazaam:
1) he needs to kick the ball farther than the the 10 yard line on kickoffs. for an nfl kicker that is inexcusable. he started the season off well but now almost every kickoff lands on the 10. we need the occasional touchback.
2) he is very inconsistent from 50 yards and out. i thought this thread was going to talk about why coach gibbs thought he could even make a 51 yarder. he misses it like we knew he would and dallas gets great field position.
im not sure if it was last year or the year before when we carried an extra kicker just for kickoffs and coach gibbs would go for it on 4th n short instead of lining up for a 50 + field goal attempt. he should employ that same tactit again in my opinion.
go skins!

if you go back and look at the game film he actually kicked th eball further than the ten almost every time, i know, i was a little shocked too. and as i mentioned before will put his nose on a guy. and our punter, our punter is doing just fine, i have no complaints when he consistantly puts it inside the 20.
