What recent events have impacted NFL kickers?
Man, our kicker is a serial killer.
Man, place kickers got to be the funniest position in sports, right? The NFL is all about sizable men running full speed into each other on purpose. Then right at the end, a little fella runs out with a single bar face mask and mismatch sues to decide the outcome. Now, I get it. It's the QB league, but it's also football. Foot's right there in the title. So what happens in the kicking game is not going to stay in the kicking game. And we'd be having very different conversations this week without the rangy performances of football's redheaded stepchildren. The story right now would be Burroughs Bengals losing another week one game, so thank goodness for them, Browns kicker Andre Schmidt brownsed it up and missed an extra point and a 35-yard field goal.
Aaron Rodgers was great on Sunday, but so was Justin Fields. The real difference was the Jets fumbled a kickoff and missed an extra point. Meantime, the sky'd be falling in Pittsburgh right now if Chris Boswell hadn't made 60 and 56 yarders. Lots of people are rightly giving Josh Allen his flowers after Sunday night, but it was Buffalo kicker Matt Prater, who looks kind of like a singer who made a country music top 40 hit in 1998 and is now making a comeback just after a show at the Best Western in West Lafayette where they paid him in beer, is the guy who really saved the night. Whereas Ravens kicker Tyler Lute missed an extra point. How much did they lose by again? And the arrow would be pointing up for Caleb Williams and not J.J.
McCarthy if the Bears kicker, Cairo Santos, hadn't shanked a 50-yarder, whereas Vikes kicker, Will Riker, drilled a 59-yarder. My point being, I know it's the QB league and all that, but all the points matter, even the extra ones. So we can celebrate the QBs, but toast the little fellas too. At least the ones who are good! Sorry about that. Let's start the show.
Yes, hi and hello, my fellow football Americans. Today's episode of Football America is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Episode seven of Football America, getting you right for week two with Jordan Schultz and my mom. Meantime, best number seven in NFL history, Boomer Esiason at best, the third place finisher here. This one comes down to Elway V. Roethlisberger, who you got your best survivor slash suicide pick going into week two. Ravens over the Browns laying 11 and a half is Baltimore. Game they have to have. I don't see any reason why Cleveland would be a viable upset pick there. My Super Bowl 60 pick is still the Bills and Niners, although I am very worried about the San Francisco plague of injuries continuing into 2025.
However, the odds on that Super Bowl are now down to plus 3,500. Thank you to all the patriotic football Americans who've already subscribed. Spread the good word, would you? The Fuentes brothers have the con in Miami, or should I say Mike Fuentes does. Gino just left sick. Your old pal Dave is here in L.A., but first we've got a special guest sitting in on the black and white news, the host of the Schultz Report, co-host of Why is Draymond Green Talking About Football? It's Jordan Schultz. What's happening, man? How are you?
I'm doing great, Dave. I really appreciate the opportunity to come on and talk Seahawks Steelers.
Oh, we're going to do that in just a minute, but first we got the news. Big spot, Bradley. Here we go. In New York, the black and white news. Take it away, fella.
Thanks, Dave. Well, when it comes to kicking, there has been plenty of fallout across football America. In Cleveland, the Browns kept kicker Andre Schmidt despite two missed kicks. But New York, the Jets cut wide receiver Xavier Gibson, who fumbled a kickoff. And while the San Francisco 49ers survived, kicker Jake Moody did not. The Niners replaced him with Eddie Pinheiro, as reported by one Jordan Schultz.
Yeah, you know, a real plague with the kickers in a big range, like I talked about at the top of the show there of, you know, some guys making 60 yarders and other guys not able to make extra points.
