Our new kicker?

yeah, the panthers base all decisions on stats from 2 years ago. no meetings, no try outs. no looking at other kickers. they seem some mediocre player and his stats from 2 years ago and go, "meh, we need a guy and he's a guy sooooo....you're hired."

It was a dumb move to let Lloyd go, the only way this guys kicks end up as TB is if the returner let's it bounce. Id be surprise to see one of this guys kickoff's eclipse the goal line. Hang time is a good thing if your players can make it downfield in time to tackle the returner for a short gain, our ST's lack in that category so we rely on TB's. We're doomed on kickoffs this year

Yeah, he's great.

Actually that was for the 2007-2008 season.

If you want his stats from the 2008-2009 season, here you go: http://www.gvsulakers.com/sports/m-footbl/stats/2008-2009/teamcume.html

His average was 63 yards on kickoffs and he had 22 touchbacks.

Also...

For the last year-and-a-half, he worked with Filip Filipovic, a former Dallas Cowboy punter who's now a kicking and punting coach in the Midwest. That helped Carter get a tryout with the Carolina on March 19.

So he's most likely gotten better, which is why the Panthers signed him.

This guy will not be on the roster come August. He is here to allow Kasay to rest during camp and not over exert himself by kicking too much...remember, he is like 60.

lol...so they are going to let kasay do the kickoffs this year. right.....

he'll be here and he will do well.

btw....i still can't believe that people are still getting upset over a KICKER leaving...a kickoff specialist thinking that it is just as bad as letting hoover go or something.

it's just a guy for kickoffs. you just need to find a guy with a big leg and this guy has one. it isn't a replacement for kasay. it's a replacement for a guy who just did kickoffs. there won't be much of a drop off if any at all.

but go ahead...keep on with the DOOOOOMMMED talk. :cryin:
