So now kickers are responsible for their own blocking. Got it.
I understand that he was inconsistent his first year, but wasn't David Akers when he was here? I'm sure guys like you were wanting him pushed out of town too. He did fine last year with kicks under his control (read...not blocked) so let's let the guy develop please.
Completely agree with you in terms of the blocked field goals. There were definitely two situations in which a blocker came free to block the field goal last offseason. In one case, Fred Davis did not chip at one of the defenders coming from the outside. And the other is the Calais Campbell one that I've been joking about on this thread. I forgot who it was, but two Redskins players let Campbell go through untouched.
I just found this on youtube, this basically shows Will Montgomery (#63) get completely owned by Red Bryant in both FG blocks:
