no doubt. when he misses a FG or extra point, painful
I mean, being a Football Team fan in general is pretty painful. A lot of my friends here in MD say so, at least.

Is Hopkins really the center of all our troubles? I think not. So much so your going to sign a kicker who hasn't kicked since when?! The moves this staff makes are perplexing to say the least.

I can’t believe I’m hearing complaints about this everyone has called for this. I was reluctant for awhile because there’s not good replacements just waiting to be signed. Hopkins hardly ever put one down the middle and that’s when I finally gave up. Now that he’s let go, he’ll probably turn into another Gano and set records with this teams luck.

Gano, Akers.....the list is long, but we can't operate out of fear. He's been missing big kicks for years.

Bengals...London
Cowboys....TG
Falcons....2XP

I reached the end of my rope when we started going for it on 4th down rather than kick a 50yd FG which is almost a chip shot for the above average kickers in the league.

If he goes somewhere else and kills it, which will probably happen, good for him.

for me, no problem letting him go, still can't understand why no competition this summer.

new surroundings best for both us and him.

He's putting the team on notice. To us it's a press release.

In that locker room, when your brother is cleaning out his locker and dapping people up on his way outta the building, that's gotta resonate on some level.
By releasing a kicker? I don’t think so. Want to put the team on notice? Cut Collins. That shows that contacts don’t matter, performance does.

Minimal impact move.

Cutting Landon Collins despite the cap hit would be a maximum impact move.

Beginning of the end for Rivera?

Yeah, it took me forever to translate duckfoot. Now I've got to figure out how to translate falco. I've already got it with piss stain because you spelled it out. You'll have to watch how Blewitt kicks the ball before you give him a name or just go with wideright to begin with, right?

I'd rather see them give him zero snaps than have 9m in dead money hoping that motivates a 2-4 team.

Cutting hopkins is like putting lipstick on a pig. It pretties up what is not dealt with underneath.

Cutting collins is like getting yourself a nice side of bacon. It kills the problem and tastes good in the process.

Sure its generally “bad” for you, as any nine million dollar cap hit would be, but in the short term it sends a message, kills the problem, and leads to a satisfying solution - living or dying with a young player.

Bacon tastes goooooood!!!!
