I ask this again. Why replace a crap kicker with a crap kicker. They both suck. There has GOT to be a human being in this world that can kick better than these two idiots.



Here he is:

This guy looked awesome for TBin the preseason

Quote:
Kai Forbath, K: With Connor Barth receiving a new contract, there was little chance the UCLA rookie would make the squad. The rookie, however, will likely find a job, since he nailed all 5 exhibition FG attempts, including a 55 yarder.


Problem is he was at the bottom of the preseason in Touchbacks. Cundif can kick off through the end zone, but can't make 50 yarders. This kid, Forbath, can't easily make 50 yarders, but can barely get kick-offs to the end zone. Clearly Shanny prioritizes the touchbacks, but one more game like this for Cundif leaves only one option, Return to Gano or explore keeping two kickers, one that can make FGs, Forbath and one that can make Touchbacks, Cundif.


Ever since seeing him in the TB preseason game, I thougt Forbath was the kicker we needed to get, but I never thought that he would be this good. 10 - 10 with most FGs being over 40 yards!

I feel that his KO's have been better than expected which means room for more improvement.

Anyone talk about this yet:

Kai wears 2 different size shoes. 13 on left foot and 10 on right foot (something like that)...not sure of size.

His right kicking foot is a TIGHT fit........works for him. He has to put a shoe horn into it to stretch it out.

What ever work........KICKER extraordinaire.....!!!

Funny little story told by the play by play guys.
