Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 This team is supposed to be about winning and wining big. You don’t keep a kicker that sucks over 3 million dollars. Do we want to win games or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2Moulds Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I'd feel a lot better with McManus as our kicker. How long are we suppose to give Bass to turn it around? Enough is enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Stare Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Put him on IR for mental health. Or bring in a kicker on PS and activate him for 3 weeks (deactivating Bass) and then make a call. May the best man win. Also, I realize this is mostly on Bass and his mental, but where the hell is Smiley on all this. Dude is completely out of his depth as the ST coordinator. He can go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrivefourfive Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 No. But who else is out there. Needs to happen now. We cannot just sit around and watch the kicker miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean that’s definitely not true the falcons kicker struggled all night and then got redemption at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry jones Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 I don't foresee them signing another kicker in season. What needs to happen though is Brady needs to be smarter about his play calling on 3rd down when we're in field goal range. Call plays that get us closer to 4th & 1 (tush push) instead of pushing throws downfield. 4th and long yardage situations force McDermott's hand to send Bass on the field.

RyanC883 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 has Bass seen a sports psychologist? perhaps that helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough is enough. Why would you feel better with him? He isn't very consistent. Letting a crappy kicker go to sign another crappy kicker (while taking on a lot of dead cap) doesn't seem like a smart decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t ever remember him being of quality so I took a look at his career. 81% conversion rate on his career. 84% for Bass. think youre right about that not seeming like a smart decision. crappy kicker for a crappier kicker one might say. 😬 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finn Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Rather than pay for another kicker who may or may not be better, I would bring in a personal kicking coach, which wouldn't count against the cap. I don't believe they have one. He's like an excellent golfer with the yips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
