Yeah, FGs are no substitute for TDs.

Still seems to really hurt a team's morale to get inside the opponent's 30 yd line, and get no points.

Yep. Made all of his kicks, booted the ball out of the end zone, and even helped to stop Sproles on a kickoff return.

Great how this gets almost zero traction versus a preseason miss.

Cundiff was money. Maybe he'll go on to be our Akers.

Re: Redskins Sign K Billy Cundiff, Release Gano

Cundiff was a really good pickup. I'm generally forgiving on Gano and didn't think bringing in Rackers meant anything, but Cundiff is probably a top ten NFL kicker. And he was available. So kudos to the front office for getting him.

Baffled me when they cut him and even more so now. I mean he's a top tier kickoff guy and fine enough on FGs. Weird decision.

Ravens fans have scapegoated him. I wonder if there was a similar effect in the front office. Ozzie Newsome is so good that it seems unlikely, but still...

All I'll say is Cundiff did great for his first game with the Redskins. Lets see how he does the other 15 games. And remember, he was cut in Baltimore because he missed a SUPER BOWL kick, not like a regular season game winner or 41 yarder against the saints.

Well cutting a good kicker for missing one kick is retarded. Even a really important kick. I wasn't sure Cundiff was a great upgrade over Gamo but his kickoffs today were as big a factor in the game as almost anything else. Keeping the ball away from Sproles is paramount.

LOL. Cundiff did everything right in the game and looks to be the best we've had for a long, long time. Ravens def we're dummies to let him go.
