skinfan2k Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Do you feel that the redskins need to bring in someone to compete or take the job from Suisham? Mare is experience and I have heard alot of good things, but I'm not too sure if he is a good kicker any more. Would this be a good idea since the Fins are close to signing Jay Feely to take the K job away from Mare. I like what Suisham showed in the last weeks of the season but honestly do you trust in a clutch situation? I am just hoping that they are not satisified in Suisham and at least bring in some compeitition in training camp/preseason to challenge Suisham?

LoudMouth12thMan Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 No, he (Suisham) proved he could get the job done last season (the games he played). He needs a little more hang time + distance on his kickoffs but that aside he's pretty solid IMO. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus T Firefly Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 We have Hall, he'll win the job. :puke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Im good on Mare, and Hall's @** should have been gone already! I would rather have to chew through my own arm and have to beat myself with it, then have Hall back on this team. We have sushi-shammy, he will be in charge of the kicking duties, or anyone that can beat him out at the same price. John Hall is as worthless as teets on a boar.

The Brave Little Toaster Oven Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Mare is a FA? Bring him here, he makes kicks consistenly at the windy and half baseball set up, Dolphin stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuckDallas81 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I think we should keep Suisham he has the potential to be a good kicker, it would be a shame for us to get rid of him and he turns out to be another David Akers, if only we had kept him our kicking problems would have been solved a long time ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor 21 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Nah, I think Suisham has proved he's a capable kicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEavyJumbo85 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 We have Hall, he'll win the job.:puke: Yeah good old Johnny Hall, who is still on the roster for some reason...I don't know if they're waiting until June 1st...again why? They can't be seriously considering letting him compete for this job... Let the kid Suisham have the job, try to get him going. He had a strong finish and hopefully he can parle that success into a long career here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Jack Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 No way. Suisham is a beast. Before Suisham, can you guys even remember the last time a Redskins kicker made a 50+ yard field goal? I can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Surface Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Suisham earned a spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdskn4Lyf21 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Suisham definitely earned it...let him kick. I didn't feel queasy when he teed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKnowsBest Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I was wondering why with free agency starting no one was talking about this. It's about time somebody addressed it. All I know is Hall is done and he has got to go. He couldn't hit the broad side of a barn these days. I like Mare. I remember seeing him hit that 60 yard game winner in the closing seconds against the Bronco's a couple years back. We need SOMEBODY who is consistent and stable... We haven't had a reliable kicker since Chip Lohmiller. Go figure we haven't had a winning TEAM since then... :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted March 7, 2007 Author Share Posted March 7, 2007 Hall will get cut and I read somewhere he will get cut after the June 1st cuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKnowsBest Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 What I want to know is, with the big free agent shopping spree we did last season, why didn't we go after Adam Vinitieri?! Hall had a bad year (2 actually) before then too so it's not like you can say hindsight is 20/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flock53 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 If I was lookin to bring in some vets to compete, how bout Paul Edinger or Doug Brien. Either way Hall has to go, he cant stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimm Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm comfortable with Suisham, he earned a spot and won;t count much against the cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooksflow Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 We need TD's! Granny can kick XP's. A decent 30 yarder wouldn't hurt now and then, but let's hear it for TD's!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expensivegift Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Suisham is the most solid kicker we've had since....Brett Conway But I do like that Mare has a strong leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins4481 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Suisham has earned the job IMO. He went 8 for 9 and the only kick he missed was 50+ yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hall had a bad year (2 actually) before then too so it's not like you can say hindsight is 20/20. Well for one thing it turned out good for us that we didn't pursue Adam. We weren't one player away, and we still aren't. Adam would've collected a big paycheck at a position we don't need to be giving huge dollars to....

ktball74 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 We have a good young kicker who did real well last season, and isn't a cap burden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
National Defense Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 did you watch any fins games recently? Mare does not have a strong leg, and has seen a significant drop off in his performance the last few years. not a great option at all. his Kicking Stats 2006 range: 1-19: 0-0 20-29 : 10-10 30-39: 6-8 40-49: 9-12 50+: 1-6 Tot 26-36 Lg Blk Pct 52 2 72.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
