Good riddance.

If he catches on somewhere else and has a good career, more power to him. That said, sometimes you need a change of scenery, and he just wasn't getting the job done here.

why the fuck do you think he has a future?

is it his inaccuracy or weak ass leg that makes you think he will be good

Kid has the yips. A good sports psychologist and kicking coach can fix him over time. We just don't have the time it would take.

He needed to go, but I got some feels from this pic. After seeing this I sorta hope he works out somewhere.

Fuck him, he could have worked out here if he had the same dedication, and could make a fucking few field goals when it matters.

he is inaccurate and has no leg strength. again, why is he different than other kickers that flame out quickly?

is it the legos and glasses? fuck i can't stand this kid

That's cold man.....:D

Look, let's not rag on the guy, AV didn't have a strong leg in NE, and had a rough start early in his career.

For some reason his leg got stronger while in Indy and he hit many more 50+ yard field goals than he did et NE.

I agree, it was time to cut him loose. I believe it's all mental with this kid. He overthinks everything. Unlike the Canadian superstar to be MV, who thought he could make every kick whether or not he was really concentrating on his job or not.

Vinny was a better athlete than most kickers not named Hunter. He played in NFL europe, before NE. Playing in NE didnt give him as many opportunities to kick long FG due to the lousy weather that affects most AFC east teams. Playing in a dome or decent weather for AFC south teams made for better stats.

Adam V had focus from years of working up from the bottom to get to the top. He was not the best kicker early, he was fortunate his coach had patience.

Since being released, Blankenship worked out for a few teams (Jaguars, Cardinals, etc) before eventually signing with the Cardinals practice squad to help fill-in for their regular kicker Matt Prater who is recovering from a hip injury.

In his first game action for AZ:

The Good: Specs went 2 for 2 on FG's including a 50 YD FG

The Bad: Specs missed an extra point attempt (2 for 3 on XP's)

Still seems to be a bit inconsistent with the results.


I wish him well, but I like that the Colts now have a FG kicker who can routinely make 50+ YD FG's.

Isn't he a 70% kicker? just not good enough for the NFL.

he is a shitty kicker

why would anyone give a fuck about this kid

Why wouldnt you care? He is a person.
