Did a little research and found this interesting. Before switching holders last year he was 12/15 for 80%. After changing holders he was 14/21 for 67%.

we should just cut n paste the discussions regarding shuisham from the past couple years. his average is higher b/c gibbs didnt send him out to kick anything over 45 yds. other competent kickers around the league have to attempt longer field goals.

all this doesnt really matter to me anymore though, special teams on the skins is constantly undervalued to the point i cant even complain anymore.

- ARE stays as our punt returner year in year out (leads league in fair catches)
- suisham still has a job
- we cut frost (who was outplaying brooks in preseason) so vinny could say all his rookies made the roster
- our only decent ST player is rock who just catches the ball and runs straight ahead on kickoffs

imo good St play can be the difference in a few games changing a L to a W.

go skins!!

I miss Frost. He wasn't all that for a kicker but he sure did like to hit guys on kick offs.

We could bring him back to replace Thrash.


I hope Swish gets beat out...so sick of him missing chip shots, having no range and kicking off out-of-bounds.

You do realize, don't you, that GBay cut Frost to sign Brooks? And that Frost is not currently on any NFL roster (Brooks is still with GB)? When it came to punters, Frost was "just a guy" and, as it turns out, so was Brooks (and Plackemeir and ...).

Thank God for Hunter the Punter!
