There's just something magical involving Jaguars and kickers

 

Say what you will about our luck, but we're pretty good at picking kickers. Maybe the best in the league for how often we go through them.


THERE IS A SKELETON INSIDE OF YOU.

 

RIGHT NOW. THIS IS NOT A JOKE.

Irony is we have been very stable at kicker compared to the rest of the league.  Maybe Gene was on to something...... ahahahahah can't even seriously type that.

Would Scobee have made the 58yd FG ? Possibly.


But we kept Myers because he appears to have a stronger leg and that paid off yesterday.

58 yarder was impressive even though the spot of the ball may have been off....add in a game winning FG.....How can you not like the guy 


I turned in 95 from a Skin to a Jag and Im sick of the Roger Goodell / family fun zone junk.

Quote:Negative Nancy here. Though you can't make that statement a fact. Had it been spotted differently, the entire play would have occurred differently in time. Perhaps Myers doesn't put as much on it and it comes up several yards short. Perhaps he manages to get more into the longer attempt and it clears it by another yard or two still. No certain thing any which way. Perhaps it gets blocked. Who knows?


Point is, it was spotted where it was spotted and the kicker made the kick from where it was spotted. Be happy.
Again... I said it was a good kick. But the dude only barely made it from the spot. And he was spotted an extra two yards (which wasn't challenged by Miami, strangely enough, until after the fact and too late). Nancy, I'm only basing the observation on what was/is verifiable. It was shown over and over on replay. Perhaps the spot was unchallengable, I don't know. But it was clear that the ball only just cleared the goal post cross bar. That spot was significant. Nevertheless, it was a great kick... congrats to Myers! Nice come back after sucking out loud against the panthers.

The guy barely made a 58 yard field goal after having a rough outing last week and you're whining because of the spot?  Gimme a break. In the two biggest moments of his young NFL career, the guy delivered.  Let's complain about the spot of the ball as if that somehow guarantees he wouldn't have made it from 2 yards further out.


Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Give credit where its due. Hopefully he keeps it up.  No more missed PATs please.

The booth has to stop play for a challenge inside 2 minutes so the idea that Miami should have challenged is wrong.  The refs blew the spot oh well that is the human element.  I'm glad it helped us this year.

I doubt he'll catch Scobee for franchise points and other records.

 

 

However, 1 game winning field goal down, I think he has 7 left to catch Josh.

It was the right move to keep this kid, even though Scobee was beloved by the fans.


Scobee does not look good at all lately.

-He missed kicks in week 1.

-Yesterday, the Steelers just kept going for 2 after their touchdowns. When they finally gave Scobee an extra point chance,, he promptly missed it.

-Last season he had issues with trajectory and got blocked often


Scobee really needs to improve, or his career is on its last "legs".

Like he couldn't judge the distance and compensate. He kicked it as hard as he needed to. If he needed an extra two yards he could have kicked it at a slightly lower trajectory which might have upped the risk of being blocked, but most of the time he would have still made it.


 

He kicked a 60 yard FG on the same field in the Jags scrimmage. It's not a matter of leg strength. The bigger question is whether or not Bradley even tries a FG if the spot was correct.


 

The FG bounced straight up off the post. You can't get any more dead center than that.
