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.

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?

you can't from what I understand.

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

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.

      Bryce contingency plan?

      By micnificent28 · Posted

      Honestly Bryce is a conundrum right now I'm not really sure what we should do with him but I am content on him being the quarterback number one going into next season. I think we should allow him the chance to play out the season to prove that he's the quarterback he can be going into next season.  I would not waste a high draft pick on a quarterback because I'm not sure anyone in this up and coming class is as good or has the ceiling that he had with that said I wouldn't throw away the future I would bring in someone like Justin Fields to have him looking over his shoulder and give us a plan b if everything doesn't go right on a one-year deal. I think the priority right now if tepper wants to make a big splash is find a way to get Travis Hunter that would be option 1AA because he helps with both sides of the field either way whatever you need defense or offense. Make that happen and then go mostly defense the rest of the way and we're cooking.
