MySa Blog: Jenkins credits Phillips for scheme/A few things to worry about

If it makes you feel better, Scandrick is 22.

I'm just getting everyone mixed up. I confused Spencer for Hatcher and now this. :laugh2:

Both of the things to worry about are non issues for me. That officiating crew throws the flag all day long every week so you knew that coming in. Suisham hit the ball good and an arguement could be made that is was indeed good. If he missed it, thats as close as it gets. He has kicked well all year but is prone to miss one here and there especially under pressure. You knew that when you signed him but its where the team is at after Folk tanked. You can't really expect to get anything better in week 15 of the season.

2) THE KICKING GAME: Just when you think Dallas has finally solved its kicking woes, Shaun Suisham misses a 30-yard attempt in the fourth quarter wide left after making a 44-yarder to give Dallas a 17-0 lead in the second.

How does a team "solve" the kicking woes by signing a guy who was JUST RELEASED for missing kicks? HUH?

Not much you can do until the season is over. There is not a boat load of kickers just standing around waiting to be picked up.

I love watching Mike Jenkins play. He's the real deal.

quoted for truth.

Kinda off-topic but I'm tired of the Newman bashing. Jenkins has played well, no doubt. But the past two games against Philly, Newman has played well against Desean Jackson.

I agree. 2 games vs Philly and vs the Saints and this defense along with Newman have done a very good job out there.

Understood. But, there is nobody? They tried out one kicker if memory serves me correctly. One. And he isn't any better then Folk.I don't know , maybe he will catch fire. Dallas is gonna need every point they can get.

They actually tried out 3 or 4 and then signed Suisham.

Ha! Yeah, really. What kicker is available who doesn't have warts?

I don't care if the kicker has genital warts, just kick the daggone ball through the uprights.

Speaking of Hatch...how about him pulling a Witten yesterday and recording a sack w/out his helmet?! I love this defense and the way they get after it this season. Even the rotational players make an impact. This team is starting to resemble 1992 with their depth and the production they're getting from so many different players.

BTW, sorry to get off-topic!

I saw the same thing. At this point in a season if a kicker is not on a club there is a reason. All we can hope for is Suisham gets into a groove
