What can we do about the FG weirdness?

Opposing teams DO NOT MISS!!!
It is incredible how accurate EVERY OTHER KICKER but ours is.
Snake Bit?

ya know you are right.

I'm expecting anytime now for a team to wheel out a kicker with no legs to kick a 75 yard field goal to beat us with 1/2 a second on the clock. :eek:

Kickers must love playing against us. :eek:hboy:

Could someone refresh the post last week about opposing field goal percentage - I think the stat was in Parcells 3 years, teams have not missed a field goal over 40 yards....?

It's 58-for-62 under Parcells and 66-for-70 since late in the 2002 season. And they've never missed from inside 48 yards.

How can this be anything but a cosmic joke.
Unless this happened before.
Can anyone find out how FG kickers did against BP when he was coaching other teams?

From the 2003 season until now, NFL kickers have made 1,764 of 2,147 unblocked field-goal attempts (and 55 more have been blocked). That's a success rate of 82.16 percent. If they'd done that against us, they would have missed SEVEN more field goals in Parcells' three seasons.

Remember, against the Commanders, the Seahawks' kicker went 1-for-3, missing a game-winner off the upright on the final play of regulation, and the Commanders won in overtime.

boo hoo. we played so bad yesterday i probably can't read the board & take the whining, nor listen to excuses, nor about how the "Commanders about to face reality".

Jerruh has been cheap on Kickers since day 1 and it bit us again.

Chinch and juckie, this thread is about OPPOSING kickers never missing against us, not about our kickers.

I do not know if anything can be done.

I tried talking to the Law of Averages God during both kicks, but obviously he was not listening.
