Twitter: Jane Slater provides update on kicking competition at practice

[BigD5]

Maher will kick the game winning walk-off FG against the Niners!

I would never get to see it. I would have a stroke if the game came down to that

How many Cowboys fans will have their eyes closed and be walking out of the room for the kick?

 

[aikemirv]

damned if you do, damned if you don't..either way if they change kickers and they blow it , the FO gets blamed, if they dont make the change and Maher still struggles..well the FO gets blamed LOL

Yeah, honestly nobody's fault here if the game is blown by the kicker given Mahers reliability all year. Other than Maher's fragile mental state!

 

[charron]

Told ya. The kid was brought in just so Maher can beat him and build confidence.

Maher will kick the game winning walk-off FG against the Niners!

26-20 Niners lead and we score with 12 seconds left to make it 26-26. Maher comes out to attempt the extra point.

 

[bigdnlaca]

Let us be honest. He missed the xp because they weren’t field goals and the game wasn’t close enough.

He wants to be the one that decides the game or he won’t make it.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

I can see this happening

 

[Xeven]

I am for Maher but you cannot let the kicker be the reason you lose a playoff.

I would be a nutcase prime for a straight jacket at that point.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

LOL, my fantasy is going out with Jane just to also try to get more inside info on the Cowboys....

 

[cityochamps]

I still blame the two over enthusiastic zone members that started threads on him this year.

I blame the refs for 3 of them, they would not allow Anger to break off and throw up a blade of grass like he has always done but now apparently it is not legal.

 

[Doomsay]

They should offer uniformed 9er fans free admission to practice and pack the end zone for PAT practice. Those fair weather *******s are everywhere.

 

[Plankton]

Was he kicking without the white strip of grass? That's what matters, apparently.

 

[Roadtrip635]

TY Hilton........ back-up kicker?

"Well, it turns out that the Cowboys already have a player with experience kicking on the roster...receiver T.Y. Hilton.

"Yes, I have in Optimist [youth football]," Hilton said on his kicking experience. "It was good. I made a lot of kicks, a lot of game-winners.""

Maher had a bad day. There’s just no way you make a change now. You just can’t.

He will bounce back. Maybe it’s a blessing with the offense now thinking it must get into the end zone.

I am scared of Maher but don’t see this guy as any better option
I think you have him kicking lots of balls and get his stroke right and ride with him

 

[stinkface]

This would be as dumb as replacing Dak with Cooper Rush last week after he had a bad game against Washington.

 

[CowboysExchange]

Advantage Maher

I hope he's practicing on a Grass Field!!! He looked pretty cursed on grass to me!! Js

 

[blueblood70]

This would be as dumb as replacing Dak with Cooper Rush last week after he had a bad game against Washington.

And yet there was a little group calling for just that.,fickle fans.

26-20 Niners lead and we score with 12 seconds left to make it 26-26. Maher comes out to attempt the extra point.

For one that would mean he at least made the last on in Tampa and a few this game plus FG.... so you might feel ok by that time..
