Quote:The point is, the team set up scenarios for a reason. Despite the 2nd team offense moving the ball, there is a reason the coaches scripted a 60 yard kick for both kickers...Josh failed badly while Myers nailed it easily.


Kickoffs better? Myers kick went past the back of the endzone.


I mentioned this last year, and was dismissed a bit, but its clear Josh's leg has already gotten weak. I remember his rookie year, his kickoffs would boom past the endzone...and that was on the longer kickoff before they changed the rules. Last year you had blocked kicks and questions on whether kicks were too low.


I don't care what Myers was in college, just as I don't care what Scobee was as a rookie. All I care about is now, and from what we saw yesterday, Myers has the edge on Josh when it comes to leg strength. Can he do it when the lights come on? We'll see soon enough. If he does, bye bye Josh.

I haven't watched the video, but the kickoff from Myers that I remember was low and a few yards into the endzone and Robinson took a handoff from the assistant next to him. Not a bad kickoff, but not booming out the back of the endzone.


You are making an awful lot out of one missed 60 yard field goal. During warmups, Scobee was making them just fine.
