So the UDFA rookie is that much better than Wright to where there's no competition?

Mixed feelings on that one. He's a little bit like the Gardner Minshew of field goal kickers. Accurate in the short to medium game but lacking deep range.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
In regards to the other new guys: Wes Martin is intriguing. Guy was solid starting some games as a rookie in 2019 and then fell off a cliff in 2020. He didn’t play much last season due to injury/COVID. He’s only 26, could be some good depth. Could just be a REALLY big body.

Its a smart move to kick the tires on Martin and Berry.
Respect the game. Play with a sense of urgency.
1.) Take care of the ball. Win the turnover battle. 2.) It's all about 3rd down. Win on 3rd down to win the game. 3.) Playmakers make plays. The only reason that you put your uniform on is to make plays. In order to EARN your paycheck, you must make plays. Learn from the great collapse of 2023.
Wright was good at field goals but completely terrible at kickoffs. I remember him as the guy who set up the other team with excellent field position. You can't do half your job and expect to keep it. I'm not particularly surprised at his release.

The narrative coming from beat guys is that they had to stop using Cooke on kickoffs to keep him fresh enough for all the punts late in the season. Wasn't sustainable.

Lol, yeah, 10 punts a game is just to heavy a workload. (05-11-2022, 10:06 PM)ChrisJagBoy Wrote:(05-11-2022, 09:17 PM)jaguarmvp Wrote: Wright was ok. We need to bring back Long Ding!

Ah, I think you're right. If he was banged up and it kept him from pulling double duty, that makes more sense. I knew it was something besides the staff just not letting him handle the kick off - because I was angry that he wasn't kicking off until I heard there were reasons. Regardless - having a kicker that can do both well is ideal, and I hope they found him. |
