When Folk missed FG, was Jerry Jones saying We need a kicker in booth?

[reddyuta]

the miss was on mcbriar,we need a new holder.

Another miss by Folk, what a surprise.

What the hell is wrong with this guy??? I thought he was money on FGs, isnt that the point of carrying 2 kickers???

If Folk doesnt come out of this slump in the next game or two, we need to seriously consider letting Buheler kick FGs.

How confident are you guys of Folk lining up for a 40+ yarder for a playoff win??? If we lose a playoff game because Folk misses a kick, I am going to be pissed beyond belief.

 

[STSINAZ]

I don't know if Jerry was saying that, but a lot of fans were. Folk is in a funk and we need him to come out of it. NOW.

hei s going to lose us a game

 

[rysko]

beast in east was that entire post sarcastic?... i hope...?

 

[silverblue]

You can't be serious right? FG kickers are paid to do two things, kickoff and make field goals!

Folk is paid for only ONE thing, kick field goals. We have a dedicated kickoff specialist. Maybe Beeler(sp?) can kick 70 yard firld golas for us

 

[Beast_from_East]

beast in east was that entire post sarcastic?... i hope...?

You would not start letting Buheler kick FGs if Folk is still slumping in the next couple of games??? I am not hatin on Folk, I am just saying that once kickers lose their confidence it is hard to get it back.

Right now, how confident are you that Folk makes a 45 yarder against the Saints in the playoffs for the win??? I would expect a miss, I have 0 confidence that Folk could make that kick.

when folk missed the field goal, they showed a clip of jerry jones in his booth, did it look like to you zoners, that jerry jones was upset and saying if you could read lips. That we need a kicker?

No, he said, "These nachos are cold!"

 

[gimmesix]

what happened to "he has ice in his veins" hes a great kicker. lords posters flop like fish out of water.


If its not the top player at every position, its just tears coming down the faces. If this guy goes hot in december a lot of people will be looking bad, but most are used to it anyway.

The only concern with me is that it seems like when kickers get off track, it's hard for them to get back on target. It might be the mental aspect of it or that something mechanical is off and it's hard to figure out or adjust.

We're going into games where every point is going to be crucial, so we can't afford for Folk to be off. That doesn't mean I'm for getting rid of him or anything like that, just hoping he gets it figured out.

And out FG kicker is only paid to do one of those.

 

[Cajuncowboy]

the miss was on mcbriar,we need a new holder.

It did look like he didn't get the laces turned all the way away from folk.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Folk is horrible right now. Even his extra points don't look good.

You have to give Beuhler som opportunities if Folk doesn't make those kicks.

good grief...

 

[hutch1254]

I think we need to calm down a little on Folk...it is a concern...but I'm not ready to run out and get someone. Baltimore just dumped their guy a week or so ago and the guy who came in still didn't get the job done for them against Indy. He needs to work through this with coaching help.

 

[the kid 05]

watching folk in warmups sunday and today, he makes everything. 55 yards away he hits it right down the middle.

Hopefully he snaps out of it.

little bit easier when its off a tee and no rush

 

[Future]

I dunno guys... He barely missed it, and 49-yarders aren't exactly gimmes.

Yea...he hasn't exactly been missing chip-shots. Let's not forget that 15 yards worth of penalties just before that made it a much longer field goal than it needed to be.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

huh? How long was that first one against the Pack? About 38 yards wasn't it? That's a gimme for a pro.

 

[CowboyMike]

Wow, there isn't any loyalty around these parts is there? The guy has been money since he's been with us and he's in a funk (which might be McBriar's fault at holder) and you all want to dump him?

Don't you all remember our Cundiff/Cortez/Vanderjagt/Suisham days? Yeah.

Right now, Folk is as bad as Cundiff/Cortez/Vanderjagt/Suisham.

Folk has lost "it." Can he get "it" back? I don't know. I hope so. Can't win without a money kicker usually.

 

[Aikbach]

Folk has a couple more games to get it in order otherwise he'll suffer the fate of Richie Cunningham, one time offensive player of the year, soon after cut for missing about a third of his kicks.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

if it were just that kick, I would agree but he has missed what 6/7 this year and three of his last four.
