K Lirim Hajrullahu vs Falcons

[America's Cowboy]

Lirim Hajrullahu never had an opportunity to kick a Field Goal, but all 5 of his extra points were good, pretty much going down the middle and splitting the goal posts with good height, quick elevation and distance. Right down Detroit.

Lirim looked very good. He looked comfortable and confident when making his extra point kicks. Plus, he was excellent with his kickoffs, all of them landing deep into the endzone with all but 1 landing at least 8 yards deep with some decent hang time.

For the first time in a while, Lirim Hajrullahu's kicks were comforting and made one feel at ease, along with confidence with every extra point opportunity continuing to be kicked right in between the goal posts with good height, distance and accuracy, along with his booming kickoffs.

Should the Cowboys keep Greg Zuerlein on the covid list for another week to see how Lirim Hajrullahu performs once more next week vs the Chiefs?

Should the Cowboys give Lirim Hajrullahu another opportunity to keep proving himself, or should the Cowboys bring Greg Zuerlein back?

What say you?

First time in a while I didn't close my eyes when our kicker kicked XP's. Too bad we couldn't see him kick any FG's. I have a feeling he would have been accurate there as well.

I would like to see Lirim get chances on field goals.

Folks, we have a kicker controversy.

ER....probably not....

I think we do. What if Lirim ends up being the next Dan Bailey?

 

[TwoCentPlain]

I believe Zeurlein is a FA after the season. This kicker might have a chance next year with the Cowboys.

Zeurlein is not losing his job any time soon.

Not just next season. Remember how, I think it was 2011, we had Bailey and that other chap who ended up being a LB on the same team at the same time? I think we might genuinely be on a kicking competition now.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Hajrullahu is eligible to go back to the practice squad tomorrow. Hoping he sticks around for next camp but the job still belongs to Zuerlein.

I love this guy's name. It's definitely a kicker name lol.

Why not? Zuerlein has missed several FGs and extra points. He even contributed to the loss at Tampa Bay.

Oh yeah that guy we drafted, Beuhlhlerer or whater lol

Well, he does hail from Kosovo, which used to be part of Yugoslavia.

Yes, that's him. We took him instead of Pat McAfee as I recall. We ended up with Bailey a couple seasons later and, well, we know the rest.

Before we believe we've found a kicker for the future, remember he's 31 not a youngster.

Not going to lose his job from 5 PAT's.
He may miss next game depending on his status. But he will not be released.

Very cool, pretty sure there haven't been many Kosovoans in the NFL. Hope he makes his homeland proud.

True, but kickers can pretty much play into their 40s without much issue.

You feel confident with Zuerlein? You prefer Zuerlein? If so, why?

I dunno either. I do know that the Dolphins had a kicker in the 60s and 70s hailing from Yugoslavia. Would be cool to see Lirim make his country proud. According to Wikipedia, he immigrated to Canada as a result of the war in his home country as a young chap.
