Gould went off today

Gould has been really good, only 1 miss, and I'm not 100% sure, but it was probably a bad snap. Gould seems to be back to his Pre-2019 self.

yeah it was a bad snap and on a 55 yarder.

Thanks for confirming it, I wasn't 100% sure, I think I missed the actual snap, just saw the kick being missed, was working on some things for my site, so I was watching the game as much as possible, while working on the site during commercials. But that drive I happened to be on the laptop, and missed the ending.

You are correct. It seems mental though do the 49ers have folks(medical staff) that can help him with this?

Get him a lobotomy.

What's up with Kyle - he just hungover or something?

I wouldn't worry, I think he just had the under on this game.

I might be alone in this thinking but I always thought that the LS was a waste of a roster spot. Can easily just have a backup lineman be the LS imo. Skule looked fine in that one rep

He had a bad game, s**t happens.
If we ´re gonna fire every person that had a bad game, we would play with the guys from the marketing team at this point.

I think it all comes down to risk management. Long Snappers handle the ball at critical times. They make one mistake and it either leads directly to a loss of points or indirectly to the opponent scoring. If a backup lineman handles the job and has a 95% success rate vs. a LS who has a 99% success rate, that could be the difference between making the playoffs or not.

A bad game? I haven't seen a long snapper f*ck up 3-4 times in the same game ever. In 15 years of watching football. That's probably record books for all time worst LS performance lol.

Do you remember how Gould looked last year with a variety of LS's while Kyle was suspended? Kicking is a HUGE mental game, and the confidence a LS provides that kicker is very much needed..

Cold blooded! Kyle doesn't even have these standards for his other positions. Imagine if he brought in some T's after McGlinchey's week 1 performance. LOL.

Polite way of saying "fix it or your replaced" Kyle views the Long Snapper like a janitor lol

Nelson is lucky that Robbie Gould statistically was 3 for 4 in FG and 3 for 3 in extra point. Otherwise Gould would have petitioned to kick him off the team with no second chance opportunities to redeem himself, like the several long snappers early last season.
