Vinatieri injuried - 4 points away from record

[ThorstenDenmark]

So Adam Vinatieri is now dealing with a groin injury at the age of 45 years old.

 

We might need a new kicker, so lets bring in Morten Andersen as his replacement ;)

 

Joke aside... 

 

Are there any free agent kickers that comes to mind as his replacement that you trust?

Honestly, I'm anxious about it. IMO there are no quality kickers available on the market. We have to trust Ballard, he pulled  Sanchez out of the hat, so I hope he can find a kicker too, if it was necessary. 

 

Perhaps AV will miss 1 or 2 games...no idea how serious his groin injury is.

Could Rigoberto Sanchez take over as kicker till AV is back?

 

or are we going to hold tryouts for the likes of ROBERTO AGUAYO and others?

I'm not a big expert, but it is comonly said that doing kicking and punting at high level is hard, as those jobs require quite different kicking mechanics. 

 

We have to trust coaching staff, and hoping for fast recovery of AV.

 

Vinny is 45, so we will need a backup rather sooner than later... :-(

Well, if our o-line continues to improve at a pace, and therefore our Offense, we can just keep going for it on 4th down, and go for 2 after the TD's. Frank said he was aggressive did he not?

With Greg Zuerlein back, the Rams just cut Cairo Santos.  Colts should grab him now.

Mike Badgley just found his name

Mike Badgley got signed by the Chargers.  I thought he looks great in preseason too.

I actually really like the idea of having Cairo here, he's a very solid kicker, and I'm a fan of him, as he's from Brazil (I'm from Brazil too lol)

 

Just sign the man!! Haha

How about that old man that kicked between quarters? Oh yeah, he was revealed as being Patty MAC.
