Used to have alot of confidence in him, but this year he seems a bit off. Still think hes still one of the better kickers but i guess im just used to him being automatic.
 
Kickers are just delicate creatures. Buehler notwithstanding.

I always get nervous when a guy misses a kick or two. That can turn into something bad in a hurry.

Folk has always nailed the next one though, so that makes me feel better.

whew, so glad you added that caveat
 
Not that I actually think we should replace Folk since he's actually kicking pretty well, but I wonder how well Buehler kicks FGs.

he could probably nail a few 60+ yarders
 
Yep. He is still in the top third of the league.
 
I'm not worried about Folk, but I do wonder if McBriar is doing a good job of holding.

Are you really worried or just bored?
 
I don't see any reason not to trust Folk.

Every time he lines up to kick one I expect it to be good.
 
He's missed 3 FGs all season, 2 40 yarders and 1 48 yarder. We won all 3 games.

Still hitting his FGs at a 80% clip.

Thanks for the perspective. It does seem like Folk is having a bad year, but that's just because he set the bar so high with his outstanding kicking up to this point.
 
He's only missed 3 field goals lol. Granted, they were ones he usually makes but how can you lose faith in a guy who's only missed 3 field goals?

And one of the one's he missed you could blame on McBriar for turning the laces towards Folk instead of away from him.

I trust Folk more than any kicker we've ever had.
