Asked repeatedly about the Colts' kicking situation, Frank Reich doesn't exactly give PK Rodrigo Blankenship a vote of confidence. He deferred most questions. It seems at the very least that the team will work out some kickers. A move could be coming. We'll see.

Reich: "Guy had a bad day, does he have the confidence to bounce back? Do we have the patience for him to bounce back? Those are all of the things you work through."

In the past, Reich **almost always** gives his players a vote of confidence.

Colts can't keep ignoring this issue.

More roster evaluation coming later this evening in meeting between Reich and GM Chris Ballard.

They're correct. He usually does give a vote of confidence. Reminds me of the tone regarding Carson Wentz before they shipped him. Hopefully they get a guy and pull the trigger.

Do you remember how many games we lost in 2019 almost directly from Adam Vinatieri falling off a cliff? Wasn't it like 3 or 4 games?

Yeah, they’re at least going to look at kickers. For Reich, that was pretty serious criticism.

I'm fine with specs...

Pierce dropped a TD...

We did that weird ass direct snap to hines on 4th down...

We roughed the kicker when we had them kicking out of the back of their end-zone...

Guessing that if any of the above came out differently, we would not have to be talking about specs today.

he missed a game winning field goal and kicked two kick offs out of bounds. what the fuck are you talking about? seriously are you retarded? he is a kicker that is bad at his job. he has never been good. why on earth would you possibly be fine with this garbage kicker?

Oldcolt 09-12-2022 06:34 PM

He is gone. Ballard keep yapping about accountability. This is an easy call. The guy sucks under pressure of a real NFL game and cannot kick off worth a damn. Get someone with a big leg and pray.

Ok, cool, but seriously specs lost this game, and no one else was less to blame?

No one else is as easy to replace.

^^^^What he said.

It’s not like Specs is Vinatieri. He’s a marginal kicker who’s never had a big leg but was good at shorter distances. If he’s no longer reliable at short distances there’s no reason to keep him.

I guarantee you there are better kickers sitting on their couch.
