[S.S.F. | Nero] Posted September 11, 2007 Author Share Posted September 11, 2007 Let's go ahead and chalk this up as the first close game won on the leg of the kicker. Here's to Shaun having a great year!:applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touchdown Redskins Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I honestly think Shaun has the talent to be a reliable kicker for a long time, but I do not think our defense is championship caliber at this point. The difference between our defense and the 2000 Baltimore Ravens (aside from a huge talent disparity) is that, as on poster mentioned, we are a great bend-but-don't-break defense. We need to cause more turnovers and pressure the QB a whole lot more to rely solely on our kicker. Hopefully our offense will mesh in the coming weeks, and Suisham can play a more Adam Vinatieri type role . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seabee1973 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Before we champion this guy our next kicker for years to come, lets see him make a few PRESSURE kicks, there are some many guys that can hit with 100% accuracy from anywhere on the field in practice, but who choke when under pressure (Neil Rackers) actually rackers very rarily misses when under pressure we lucked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Have we finally found our Kicker? He's 12 for 15 and hit 2 game winners this year already. Havent had any kicks blocked, havent lost any games on a field goal attempt. He's 14 for 14 on Extra Point attempts. He hit 5 field goals yesterday, and they were from all over the field, not all of them were straight on, or from the same distances. Longest being 46 yards in OT for the win. In an era where we shuffled kickers as often as we shuffled QBs, it's nice to have a kicker who seems to be somewhat consistant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawyer5500 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Give Shaun Suisham his props for his play against the Jets. He has been inconsistant the past few weeks but he was 5/5 including the over-time game winner! He looks like he could really pan out to be a long-term solution for the Redskins kicking position. :applause: The only thing he really needs to work on is his kickoff yardage, but he did give the Jets a touchback on one of the kickoffs.

Chris0894 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 ;not only did he win this game but he also earned 19.0 fantasy pnts and took my fantasy team to 8-1 along with ARE, campbell, and our D i have: Campbell Addai ARE owen daniels kevin curtis McGahee Suisham and skins D! mostly skins and they take me to 8-1...so skins are doing something right if our starters are scoring fantasy pnts. bench i have: mcnair Betts kenton kieth A. peterson (bears) L.Coles and the pats D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveP666 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Think the team has more pressing offensive worries without Shaun Suisham being in the mix. He played his part in the NY win. Thats his job. I'm kinda glad we don't need to be looking at replacing kickers and punters halfway through the season like in the past. We want a WR Touchdown!!!

Teller Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Suisham is a football player. And I think that's the highest compliment you can give a kicker. Hail to #6. :helmet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrfriedm Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 S.S. started the season out great, but then struggled big time. He seemed to get his mojo back last weekend, lets just hope that he doesn't loose it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 SS is the man. i loved his post game interview. he seems like a true competitor. i love how our kicker and punter both seem like real football players I liked his post game interview as well...seemed like a sincerely good guy, and loved how he kept saying the OT field goal was just another kick, didn't bother him, everything inside the 50 you pretty much kick the same way, the press was making more of the situation than there was, etc, etc... And both him and Frost will take you OUT if they have to lol :laugh:...they seem as enthusiastic about tackling as Portis is about blocking.

Laxpunk2006 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I think Suisham is, and will perform a large role for us this year. However, we don't have half the defense or ST that the 2000 Ravens had. We don't have a return man like Lewis, or a defense that can consistantly put up points on their own.

FunBunch7 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I don't see him having a "role" as the original poster put other than kicking the ball through the uprights when called upon. I sure would rather him kick extra points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheItalianStallion Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I was beginning to lose confidence in him: he missed a 38 yarder against NYG, and missed a similar length FG against Arizona. But he nailed several long ones on Sunday, hope he nails 'em all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
