Give this man some credit too

one game, but yeah...seems like he might be having some success. gettis was impressive but who would have figured lafell getting targeted 6 times and catching all of them?

Why is that so surprising? A lot of these "drops" LaFall has had, were way overblown, IMO. I've seen maybe 2-3 that were legitimate drops, the rest were either good plays be the DB or off target and had enough velocity to make them very hard catches. Moose wouldn't have caught some of those passes either.

Someone needs to make a "give this guy some credit..." thread about Rhys Lloyd. Dude was mediocre last year but it looks like he's back to top form.

I don't like the whole idea of a Kick off specialist but he is doing well. It's just annoying in that I bet if Kasay went down with an injury we would sign a new kicker rather than promote Lloyd. When Kasay is sent out to pasture I hope we just sign a bluechip Kicker and be done with it. Activating and keeping them both is inefficient. Replacing one of them with a wildcat QB, 5th DT, or a ST Ace would be really nice.

With that huge 55 yarder the other day though, Kasay and Lloyd may be around for a while.

meh, it's really just the weather.

These mild temps right now are helping him out. Once it gets to be cold out his kicks will lose some of their oomph.

The ball needs to be firm but pliable for max distance. extreme heat and cold really affect his range.

One game...but hopefully Gettis is as good as he looked SF and that wasn't a fluke. His routes were about as crisp as I've ever seen out of a Panthers receiver (including Steve Smith).

I didn't see SF's kicker getting a ton of help from the temperature.

i wonder if it would be against the rules to heat up the K balls when the cooler temps get here. they wipe the rain and mud off. why not be able to warm them up?

It's all relative, each kicker has a different range

you can't from what I understand.

The NFL just wants more exciting plays, Touchbacks not so much

[Kettle]

thats dumb. dome games go unaffected by the weather all season. i wonder what Lloyd's touchback percentage will be in ATL or NO now vs our december games.

TEAR THE ROOFS OFF!!

he went from lafell to lafail and now he's back to lafell again

he did a great job sunday. plus with gettis established as a huge threat with the focus on him and Smith, Lafell might be getting those breaks and have a 100 yard performance this week, and maybe if we can get something good out of this season it would be a receiving game by committee type thing like the giants have right now with Nicks, Smith and Manningham.
