I was scared to death at the thought of kicking a 40 something yard FG

Our kickers have big legs, but you never know if it will go through the sticks. Also, when some said ideally you down it at the one and run the clock down, and kick a FG, I disagree. I was thrilled we ran it in and got the 2. Too many things have gone wrong, I felt we had it won with 5 or 7 with 31 seconds left. They could not move the ball very fast. The kickoff return was the only thing at all that gave me any worry. Could not believe they fair caught it.

  • Was Estime trying to set the FG try up on the left hash, on the TD run ? - OklahomaIrishman - 1:20pm 10/2/23 (19) [View All]
    • Kicking should never be an option with this kicker - cubsfanin16 - 2:38pm 10/2/23
      • He seems to be the only one who doesn't understand that his Kicker is shaky. [NT] - jakers - 4:34pm 10/2/23
        • I think at this point that's why he isn't reversing course - NDNEIL - 4:48pm 10/2/23
          • See I don't even look at it that way, I literally don't care who the kicker is.. - Chrisb - 8:21pm 10/2/23
            • Yep, you only "go down at the 1" if you're up by 1 and scoring is the only way you can lose. - jakers - 12:48pm 10/3/23
              • Exactly. [NT] - Chrisb - 8:03pm 10/3/23
      • Yes Sir! [NT] - oldirish - 4:17pm 10/2/23
      • I was scared to death at the thought of kicking a 40 something yard FG - OklahomaIrishman - 2:50pm 10/2/23
        • I actually think our kicker is pretty good sometimes misses aren't on the kicker, that said, I hate - THEISMANCARR - 3:24pm 10/2/23
          • 31 seconds. [NT] - Chrisb - 9:13am 10/3/23
          • No doubt there are multiple elements that can potentially fail . - OklahomaIrishman - 6:48pm 10/2/23
        • I couldn't agree more, we don't have Jake Elliott [NT] - cubsfanin16 - 2:57pm 10/2/23
        • I couldn't agree more, we don't have Jake Elliott [NT] - cubsfanin16 - 2:57pm 10/2/23
    • No doubt he was trying to get a few yards and go left. - ndphysics - 2:18pm 10/2/23
      • In this world...you're happy with the TD... [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 2:23pm 10/2/23
    • Typically, right footed kickers like the ball on the left hash mark [LINK] - ndunabomber - 1:42pm 10/2/23
      • I still don't get it. Did MF want Estime to fall at the one or score that TD? - ELP - 3:02pm 10/2/23
        • If he still thinks Estime should have fallen at the one, we may be fooked! - Chrisb - 4:16pm 10/2/23
          • That is funny stuff , yet probably true ! - OklahomaIrishman - 6:43pm 10/2/23
