This guy is a proven pro. I have no concerns about the punting. Smith was declining, the numbers prove it.

I think the place kicker from FSU could turn out to be a long term solution.


At least we don't have the Choking Cowboy Retread (who singlehandedly lost 2 games for us last year) and the idiotic punter who could not stop pulling his helmet off.

Being able to acquire some long term stability at either position would be ideal. Bidwell has established himself in the league, but he's a twelve year veteran with a limited future to say the least. Gano has yet to establish himself because of his infancy, his youth could afford him the opportunity to be a long-term solution. Time will tell.

Wink Re: Redskins Sign P Josh Bidwell

Is he as big an offensive weapon as Hunter Smith?

Rumor is that Bidwell is the MASTER of the swinging gate play!

ZOMGZ I'm so sold now. Screw drafting a QB. We should just run the swinging gate offense.

All you needed to know about Captain Slip and Slide is in that youtube clip.

The best is that was on Monday Night for the world to see...

That has to be the low point of this franchise in the modern era.

I really hope that's why. If he really though it was a good idea...wow.

I just stood up to try to get my jaw off my lap. I could not believe what I was seeing.


Then, I laughed. At Zorn, not with him.

Oh the memories:

I think the play happened at post #233 with "ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha".

Re: Redskins Sign P Josh Bidwell

I would think based on what we are doing at other positions that at least 1 more punter will be signed. I wouldn't think this gaurentees that Bidwell is our punter this year.

Re: Redskins Sign P Josh Bidwell

Well.. okay I guess? Cheaper than Hunter if that matters to them I guess.

Seems strange not to bring Hunter back unless we were going for some youth movement.
