He hasn't been himself this year but I didn't think he was actually dead. The Pats have only had 2 kickers through my entire adult life

They had Shayne Graham that one year Ghost was injured!

I think a lot of what makes a kicker successful is the coaching, which is why some teams never seem to have a problem, and some can't ever solve the problem. Also, Ghost has missed like a kick in every game, including xp's the last two weeks, so bring on I dunno.... Kai Forbath? Eh gently caress it, they can just go for two every time.

Patriots get better due to lack of kicker would be typical. Ugh.

The Ravens seem to be trying to overhaul their LB corps (more like corpse, am I right?) 4 games into the season. Come on down Josh Bynes and that Fort guy who I can't be bothered to google.

Eh, I disagree. The Lions had Jason Hanson for 20+ years and he was great the whole time (To the tune of becoming the NFL's fourth highest scoring player), then we had a year and four weeks of a revolving door of terrible loving kickers, then we got Matt Prater and he's great.

imo kicking is voodoo magic, if you find a kicker that seems good you hold on tight and pray to God he doesn't turn into a pumpkin.

Every Tom Brady pass looks like he's going for two already so this makes sense

I liked this video about kicking, despite the clickbaity title it's got some interesting information. The most important thing by far is where exactly your foot makes contact with the ball, and the lower you can get that without jamming your toes into the ground the better

Belicheck has earned the right to walk around with his dick and balls out in broad daylight.

Whenever there's a Patriots game on CBS, Romo should be commenting, "Bill really deserves to have his dick and balls out right now, Jim!"

hahahaha gently caress, I didn't know it was just "naked in the hot tub". The way it was described to me made it sound like he was wandering the locker rooms letting his nuts hang. Still a great video.

I find it hard to believe there's any players, at least offensive, left in the nfl who haven't played against him or don't know who he is. Maybe it's a big case of "glad he's on our side" but everyone knows the dirty players in their league even in like junior league sports certain kids had reps you heard about

I just so happen to walk by the hot tub, and coach is in the hot tub. Like, obviously I came in the room to go in the hot tub. But then we made eye contact, and my natural instinct was to turn around like I was going to leave.

But then I saw that he saw that I was in there, and then he got up and got out. And real, real big party foul by coach. I mean, we’re supposed to have shorts on. We’re supposed to have shorts. But I guess at 11 o’clock when you’re the GOAT of coaching, you go wherever you want, free ball.

So I had to hide my absolute face of terror after seeing what I saw and sit in the hot tub.

...

I had to, like, trail him by like a foot. No less, no more. We didn’t say a word. Not one single word. We’re just walking, and I’m talking probably like a 30-yard walk.

I was sitting there and I was in so much disbelief of everything that was going on that night, that I wanted to try to potentially make some small talk with him. I don’t know where I got the confidence but I asked him, “Coach, it’s pretty amazing that you’re here this late.”

And he looked back at me, and without any hesitation goes, “It beats being a plumber. See you tomorrow.” I was mindfucked. I didn’t know what to think, what was he saying. I was terrified, happy, I may have shed a single tear.
