you bring in guys and work em out. you want to see how they look now, not what they did a year ago. you need the kicker now, or on Thurs. as we see ARZ signed Ryland and he tried a FG we scored a touchdown. so that's a ten point swing. these guys often unemployed for a reason.

post game Kyle will have that "I don't know why it happened" look on his face…

Holy s**t give it a rest…at this point is troll behavior

Most likely a PBM

That's fair, I mean who knows, maybe Wright has been kicking for a semi pro team in his area or has been actively practicing all time on his own waiting for a chance.

Hope it works out here obviously.
I swear if I hear Chris Collingsworth say anything about "Wide Wright", I'm going to punch him in his stupid face.

Why not punch him anyway?
Well fans have said that you can just grab any kicker off the street, you don't need to draft them. We are going to find out how true that is over the next few weeks. And you know your season is going to sh*t when not only do you lose your kicker to a tackling play but you get so unlucky to have it happen to his kicking foot.

I haven't seen "don't need to draft them" it's more of you don't need to draft them with a 3rd round pick. I'm one of those who will always believe that and I also think we won't even notice Moody being out with this guy filling in fine
Hope he has a strong leg to kickoff through the end zone EVERY SINGLE TIME with this ST unit.
