Well.....that's on the offense.

Kickers, much maligned, are a VERY important part of the game. Look at the league leaders in scorers and the kickers are always up there.

In understand the disdain for them, but when you have a kicker that is reliable, you are much more at ease.

If an offense would quit faltering when it gets into the scoring range, then the blaming of the kicker would quit.

Pretty sure they tried that in practice and he was 0-7. :(

They just need to punch into the end zone early and often and not rely at all on field goals at all, unless we're comfortably ahead.

Still, if the game is on the line, I trust Buehler over Suisham.

Based on what? The corny Buehler jokes?

That's just because you haven't seen him miss a FG yet.

Probabilities say Suisham can get it done in a pinch if we need him. Hopefully we won't.

Yeah, I tend to believe that if he can't do it in the safe, relatively comfortable environment of a practice, throwing the pressure of a playoff win on his shoulders isn't going to make him produce.

I am very nervous about our our field goal kicking situation. We need copious touchdowns so we don't have to worry about it. Pretty sure our offense feels the same.

What has Suisham missed? Like 3 or 4 in the past year or two? Granted, each miss is terrible....

The coaching staff disagrees.

If the game were on the line and they put Buehler in there over Suisham, THEN I would say that the coaching staff should be investigated for betting on the game....
