Redskins luck and history. I'm pretty sure Novaks first fga was a miss as was shuishams and ganos.(I'm to lazy to research it)

We suck at kickers. Sad to say we need to keep Rackers on radar just in case.

Nineteen kickers since 1994(18 years) is way too many. That screams instability at the K position. Hopefully Kai Forbath will be the long term answer. We haven't had a franchise kicker since Chip Lomiller and that was so long ago.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes. We haven't even seen Forbath kick a kickoff yet. You've got an itchy trigger finger, don'tcha?

Sad that this seems to be the year of the kicker. Dont' know the statistics, but I've just been hearing so many of the other kickers this year kicking >50 and even >60 yard field goals -- and making them.

He will make his first 10 FG attempts and on the 11th (that he'll miss) some Skins fans will be calling for his head.

If he [I][U][B]DOESN'T[/B][/U][/I] make his first 10 I will eat 10 of JoeRedskins business cards covered in Habanero sauce. I'll paid the postage, JR.

He's a Bruin, you heretics! He'll be our Pro Bowl kicker for a decade!

HTTR!

50 yards. We have a kicker...for one week at least!

re: Update: Redskins Sign K Kai Forbath and OLB Mario Addison/Waive Cundiff and White
 

That kick was so critical, helped turn the momentum around both on the field and in the stadium.

re: Update: Redskins Sign K Kai Forbath and OLB Mario Addison/Waive Cundiff and White
 

Exactly. Cundiff's chip shot miss just got everyone down last week. It seemed like we lost all momemtum with that shank and never got it back.

These kickers are more important to the flow of the game than we realize.

Better yet, Philly and Dallas both lost because of kickers. Well, Dallas had a lot more issues than a missed FG in that last half a minute of the game... :D

Don't ever complain about our clock management again.

Yes, Dallas had their problems but they still had a chance to win. It seems like opportunities just fall in their lap. I'm so glad they missed that kick.
