moondog Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 We use to try and corner kick religiously when Danny Smith was our special teams coach and all that lead to was returns by the offense, penalties when our kicker would let the ball bounce out of bounds and kickers being out of a job when they would eventually lose confidence and fans would lose patience. Just not worth the risk so we just tell kickers to kick it out of the endzone and start from the 20 yard line. His next rant is going to be towards you! He was talking about PUNTING brother.

Koolblue13 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 woohoo! Davis in! I wish I hadn't deleted my roster guess like an ass, because I was pretty close. Hope Nick makes the PS. CT and PT as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Wtf why did we cut all of our backs. We were only going with 3 Tailbacks and a Fullback. Three had to go. Hope we can get Lache on the PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 A lot of guys can do both; in fact, most of them do in college. I was buddies with my college's kicker and he was usually also the punter. The reason pro teams don't do this is two fold: 1) There used to be more of an emphasis on coffin corner punting, so teams liked having a specialized punter. Nowadays teams hardly do that all, preferring instead to boot it out of the end zone. There is no way #1 is true lol...teams don't "prefer" to give up 20 yards of field position to their opponent. In fact, you'd be hardpressed to find many examples of punters "booting the punt out of the end zone." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor703 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Wtf why did we cut all of our backs. I have no clue? I was assuming they'd try to keep Lache but I bet he gets scooped up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armada58 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Phillip Thomas is a complete shocker! Never saw that coming. You can put a stopwatch on Thompson and Seastrunk signing to the practice squad once they clear waivers. Very interesting to see Redd make the final 53 over those 2, though. Not at all surprised about Royster. This all really shows the confidence they have in Helu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Rich Tandler @Rich_TandlerCSN 19s .@skinsfanfrvr Sixth- and seventh-rounders are frequently cut and added to PS. Not a sign of bad drafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Wtf why did we cut all of our backs. T @TMM75 13m @MrDCsportsSr Heard from a couple people this morning they like Henry Josey and could make a move for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if the Skins actually want the guy, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Taze Me Bro Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Maybe gruden is targeting ellis now that he's cut? Honestly, that's my thought. He knows what Ellis can give us in all situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Not surprised at the PThomas move or the CThompson move. Health is at a premium. I don't think Lache gets picked up. I bet he makes it to the PS. Since I'm in a good mood today, I'd rather talk about the guys who made it. Big props to Akeem Davis, Trenton Robinson, and Silas Redd. All 3 UDFAs who made the 53. That is one of the reasons I love this game. Kudos to those guys for putting in work and realizing their dreams. Awesome stuff. Really happy for them.

Cooleyfan1993 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Man...really surprised about seastrunk. Thought it woud be Morris, helu, and strunk, not Morris, helu and redd. Especially after strunks 80 yard TD Thursday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bantu Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Seastruck is good as gone. People actually think he'd won't be picked up? I'm guessing they have strong reason to believe that they will be able to get Thompson and/or Seastrunk through to the PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nxun Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Seastruck is good as gone. People actually think he'd won't be picked up? No doubt! Bucs GM and announcers were drooling over him during the broadcast. I say he's claimed by the Bucs fairly soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow184 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Seastrunk is raw, and still can't pass block. I'm sure tons of teams want him for PS as I'm sure the redskins do, but if someone wants him on their active 53? I'd be surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Yeah great draft pick there. Says something about Bruce. So, you bash him because a 6th round pick gets cut, but no praise for finding Redd off the street who made it. I swear Redskin fans are something else. Jeez Louise, I'm just as disappointed that Lache was cut, but that's on him, not our GM. He obviously has some things to work on or else Jay wouldn't have cut him.
