ANTI-FREEZE soaked donut, you stupid ****ing cockswallower.

My bad.

You'll learn. :D

Succop ain't Elliot bad. He's somewhat reliable, kicker's miss. Heck, he didn't miss one all day.

There aren't a lot of kickers that you can trust from 60 yards out.

In the dark prison of our despair, that decision is a really big aggressive guy in the shower.

I think her point for the most part is that there are many K's you would at least say "F it, let's try a long kick". With Succop it's not even considered

Exactly!! Thank you.

With Succop we'd be lucky as hell if he could connect from 53/54. 60? Almost impossible.

Well, Alabama Auburn proved that isn't quite true. If you really don't think he has the leg for it, then it's a real risk.

The field goal protection team is basically two specialists in the holder and kicker, a bunch of fatties to block, and not much else. It's not exactly the guys you'd want on the field to defend a kick return, which is sort of what you'd be dealing with...

You don't need to trust him. You need to think "the odds of a kick from 60 are better than the odds of converting 4th and 11".

But the time left on the clock is also important, as others have pointed out. Leaving the Colts with 2 minutes there isn't likely to end well...

All that said, you guys might look for a really good kicker in the 4th or 5th round of the draft maybe. Guys like that are a very nice bonus for a team that is on the rise. They can affect field position on kickoffs and get the 3 when you need the damn 3.

Succop has been pretty solid over the years. I think you gotta stay with a kicker through the tough times. Blair Walsh was terrible at Georgia in his senior year and look at him now. Succop really only had one bad one all year. I'd bring in some competition but that's about it. You aren't going to find much better.

So if you had one more chance
 

I wondered about the reason for not attempting the FG before halftime as well. Perhaps it had something to do with wanting to preserve whatever fragile confidence Succop had reacquired after the problems he had the week before.
