Why can't the punter do kickoffs? He's really worse than Specs at it? Can there be anyone worse than a guy who kicks it off out of bounds on two crucial points in the game?

Haack has only kicked off four times in his NFL career.

That was one of the reasons that I thought Dicker the Kicker would be a good replacement for Sanchez since Dicker punted and kicked in college.

He could have stepped in to be the punter and kick-off specialist.

I hate to say it, but you're right. Reich is complete fucking garbage. We skull fucked the shit out of the Texans last year to the tune of 62-3. We supposedly upgraded at DE, CB, and QB while the Texans stayed in rebuild mode and didn't do anything at all. Then somehow through Frank's incompetence we found ourselves down 20-3 entering the 4th quarter.

Then miraculously they cough up the ball and we score 17 straight and go into OT.

Then Frank shows his complete ineptitude. Instead of realizing that all we needed was a FG to win he decides to run a bootleg inside the red zone instead of just taking a knee in the middle of the field to set up a chip shot FG. It's like his dumb fuck ass doesn't know the rules of the game

That is what is most frustrating. We had a chip shot. Next score wins. First down? So, what? Kick it and win. No, run two negative plays first.

He doesn't trust "Blanky-shi-" under pressure any more than we do. (which is not-at-all)

He was 2-2 up to then in the game and it would have been from ~33. Why risk pushing it back to anything further if you don't trust him to hit from there?

And if he truly doesn't trust specs to hit from 33 yards in the middle of the field he needs to tell Ballard to go het him someone who can. He won't get anyone who can hit from 55 at this point, but he sure as shit can bring in someone who can hit from 35 (Badgley, etc.).

Ray Guy used to do that when he played for the Raiders, when ageless George Blanda no longer had the leg for booting into the end-zone from the 40 yard-line.
