Aubrey has missed 6 of his last 7 FG from 57+

No one performs at a high level for ever.
Time is undefeatable.

Missed and blocked are not the same thing.

Fair enough. But 1 for his last 5 is still bad for his standards.

 

[Nav22]

So, remove the two blocked kicks which aren’t necessarily his fault and he’s made 5 of his last 10 kicks from 57+ yards. Further, when you look at the 5 misses (non-blocked), they were from an average distance of 61.4 yards.

Gimme a break.

How quickly some forget that this dude used to be damn near automatic from those distances.

5-10 is normal by his standards now?

61.4 is too far by his standards now?

The blocks are an issue. Several kickers have never had one blocked, Aubrey has had 5 in just over 3 years. Either he has an issue, or every coach involved in ST needs to go.

He’s far from “Automatic Aubrey”. Just another case of our awful front office paying top $ to a player who isn’t top of his position.

This staff got too obsessed with Aubrey. I've seen too often once we are in his range, heck which is just past the 50, they get ultra conservative, thinking they have 3 in their back pocket.

And the shine seems to be wearing off on Aubrey. What set him apart, was the consistency to hit the very long kicks. If that goes away, nothing sets him apart anymore.

Maybe the long-ball magic is gone and we need to stop trotting him out there regularly for moonshot FG attempts?

He did hit 4 of his previous 5 from that distance (since last Sept.) so hopefully it's just a slump he can work his way out of.

Killer 6-point swing at the end of the half in Houston thanks to the confidence we had in Aubrey.

He is still very good, but not the player he once was.
To be fair , it was probably unrealistic to expect that level of play long term.
