steelers hire chris boswell cut scobee

Steelers sign kicker Chris Boswell, cut Josh Scobee - NFL.com

3 kicker threads in just 2 or 3 months on this forum??? Crazy year I tell ya...

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Hopefully this guy can kick... And not tear a hammy or ACL...

Sigh....what a fuckin clusterfuck so far

 

[SteelerKing]

Although I've been as vocal as anybody about kicking Scobee to the curb (and not missing), I don't have a huge vote of confidence in Boswell. He'd previously been released by both the Texans and the Giants without ever kicking a single field goal at the NFL level.

Next up on the Steelers' radar: Ray Finkle.

Yea its a wait & see type of deal. Nobody was all too excited when we picked up Suisham back in 2010. We originally signed him as a UDFA back in '05 after the superbowl, but cut him before the next season. He then went to the Cowboys, to the 9ers, to the Skins, and back to the Cowboys before coming to the Steelers. He was cut/released more times than Boswell before making it here but he turned out to be one of the best we've ever had. Sometimes a change of scenery is all a kicker needs to either boost or deflate his career.

Must have happened while he was shanking his kicks.

At least he knows how to put one through the uprights with her. Can I get a hot wife if I suck at my job?

The Steelers are so desperate they've contacted the Titans about Rob Bironas.

(Too soon?)

A good point, Face. Let's all keep a good thought.

This fellow can't be any worse than Scooby Don't.

Indeeeeeeed.

This was a good hire...a really good hire.

I like Shawn, but he's getting up there. Bos may be the face (or rather, the foot) of the future.
