It appeared to me that he tried to kick the first one (56 yards) too hard. He didn't have that smooth, compact approach that I've seen on his other attempts.

The second one, well, I think he was confused.

Meh; there are plenty of veteran kickers available if he winds up sucking.

Missing from 56 yards is completely acceptable. That's a LONG ass kick. Not many kickers in the NFL can make it from that distance. The one at the end was concerning, but at least it was from 52 and not 32 like Mare would've missed from.

Like I said, plenty of vets to bring in if he struggles week 1/week 2. I do think we should seriously consider drafting a long-term kicker next year, though. As early as the 5th round if necessary. Unless, of course, Medlock rebounds and is solid.

Can't wait to re visit this thread when games actually count. When our punter is kickIng it over people's heads, when Adams is returning punts for TD's, and that defense is a turnover machine. This will be a good thread to re-read

Those punts of course were returned for TDs twice in a row. Luckily they were called back for holding. If Medlock doesn't kick it through the end zone, I will be shocked if the Panthers make a tackle inside the 30.

Those punts were TD's Because of the holding penalties... No hold= no TD. C'mon guys... 4th preseason game... Let's not wig out

I'm not wigging out. Show me where the kick off team has actually stopped someone? And those holding calls were not where the punt was fielded. They were big gains regardless of the hold.

Wiggling out comment wasn't totally directed at you. I'll worry when the bullets start flying

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      Daniel Jeremiah: Panthers prime trade candidate

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
