Brandon Aubrey's Missed Extra Point

[stilltheguru]

He's overrated.

When good kickers miss there is a reason. Finding that reason and blaming it is the right response. The posts I've seen questioning Aubrey this morning are off base.

I hope you’re right dog
He struggled the end of last season so I am concerned

Aubrey got his bag. Suddenly has the yips.

He's got the yips.

But let's also not lose sight of the fact Williams getting a taunting penalty in that spot is about as dumb as it gets.

This team needs 1 leader, one respected guy on the sidelines they answer to. One battle cry, one way to play. We don't have that. We have cliques, factions, and branding platforms. Our local team media is the same. We are a diseased franchise. The only cure is waiting it out, thus, cycling thru all the Jones kin til change is actually made. We all might be taking dirt naps by then lol

Oh I didn't forget. I was more shocked to see him do that. Uncharacteristic of him. It hurt us. Selfish.

To be fair, if Williams isn't a complete idiot and gets a taunting penalty, we wouldn't have had to kick a 48 yard extra point.

I posted this in another thread but felt it would be good to post as a standalone thread.

This one point is not why the Cowboys lost of course, but for some reason people seemed focused on it so ...

On the extra point attempt, the hold was not good ..

See the ball angle? That pushes the ball to the right.

Compare it to similar kicks of the same distance from other games by Aubrey ..

Wooh, Romos botched hold is finally off the hook.

Another chapter closed in the CZ

Thanks
Do we have a different holder now?

Bad holds happen .. though they rarely do with Anger, though ironically I bet he's mad at himself about it.

...either Yips or heavy wallet as gotten in the way of focus.

Yeah, that penalty was uncalled for even if they were up by multiple touchdowns, but especially with them behind at that point.
