3:06 pm Cowboys kickers Nick Folk and David Buehler spoke in the locker room today about a kicking battle at practice. If this was a prize fight it would have been stopped in the first round. Buehler was 0-3 in his attempts and none of them were even close. Folk wasn't much better going 2-4.

2:00 pm With Cowboys LB DeMarcus Ware day to day with his neck strain, rookie LB Victor Butler would get the starting nod. Butler said that his goal this week is to prepare and play like Ware is still out there.

1:53 pm Cowboys TE Martellus Bennett will most likely miss the Saints game with a concussion. Rookie TE John Phillips took his place as the back up to Jason Witten and C Cory Procter was brought into the game as the third TE in short yardage situations.

1:50 pm Cowboys WR Roy Williams on playing the Saints, "There is no better momentum swing than going to beat the Super Bowl Champs." When Williams was told that the Saints had yet to win a Super Bowl. He said with a smile, "Well you might as well crown 'em."

That explains some things...

 

[Smith22]

LOL. Now you know why Hos hates kickers!

 

[tunahelper]

Time to grow a pair and cut Folk and find a kicker.

 

[Bach]

And we drafted both of them.

*oh my head*

Maybe in the offseason we can host a reality television show where contestants go through various FG kicking challenges. Chris Boniol can host.

I'd rather see Hos hosting it.

That I'd actually tune in for!

 

[FightingIrishman]

Commanders cut Suisham. He is available. not a bad year...only has missed 3 I think, but the one during the Saints game got him canned.

He missed a 22 yd fg that would have put the skins up by 10 with 2 min to play. He should have been put to sleep, not released.

 

[Hoofbite]

**** FGs. If neither can make it em, go for it on 4th downs of 5 yards or less.

Might as well. Kicked FG loses 7 additional yards if it misses.

 

[Big Dakota]

Here's an idea, SCORE TDs!

 

[Doomsay]

Thought everything was at least golden in practice, the problems just occurred during game situations, bad holds and such. Mr. Decisive said that there weren't none kickers out there that were even a lick better that whats we have here - pathetic, this has been a problem for weeks, but instead of dealing with it directly, we hope that things will improve and stuff.

 

[CATCH17]

If we lose this week because of Folk the roof is going to blow off this thing.

Not to mention it was against the Saints lol. They won that game. Deadskins won that game and gave it back.

 

[BAT]

Cowboys kickers a combined 2-7. WOW.


Bring in someone, anyone, NOW.

 

[Vertigo_17]

C Cory Procter was brought into the game as the third TE in short yardage situations.

I didn't notice this, which is probably a good thing unless it was on the (4) failed goal line attempts. Usually with Procter, it is apparent he's in the game

 

[Americas_Team]

This is very sad... I guess now I know how the people from the titanic felt...
