Patriots place Ghost on IR

[Clonamery]

Can Bailey kick? I know he's got the boot for kickoffs. Is his accuracy better than what's available among free agents?

Minnesota

I have no reason to believe that Harry will be effective. If Develin is healthy, I greatly prefer him to Harry.

Goddammit.....

That is 4 guys on I/R now...and the guys I want to return in order:

a.) Wynn
b.) Harry
c.) Develin
d.) Ghost

So, Ghost is done for, IMO.....

Folks here are gonna see WHY we had him on the roster......

For all those posters wanting us to replace Gost, should be interesting to see if/when our new kicker misses his 1st kick or PAT.

I'm sure the new kicker will miss a few. Won't be worse than the pace Gost was on this year. If the kicker we pick up really sucks just cut him and pick up someone else.

So you're saying BB broke the NFL rules and didn't list an injury?

As I mentioned in the other thread, if Gost is taking 100% of the kicking reps in practice (which be honest, who else would be taking them), then he's a Full Participant and doesn't need to be listed on anything.

When has Digital Bob not been ridiculous?

Why are you harassing posters who didn't even engage with you?

Your whole schtick here is destructive; harassing and berating legitimate fans/posters is pretty toxic.

Have you read Bob outside the Draft forum?

 

[RobertWeathers]

That's possible but he took a nasty fall in the Bills game too on that big gain later in the game. Was very slow to get up.

Yikes.

Yea he's clearly banged up as opposed to this being a face-saving move.

Not sure if the injury explains why he's sucked with XPs but not FGs.

No, I'm saying your post was ridiculous. We know that not all injuries lead to an injury designation, and we know that the injury rules allow for that.

Oh you were talking about the punter. Oy vey.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Yikes.

Yeah it boggles my mind that he is excellent on FGs and average on PATs this year...

 

[Deus Irae]

Patriots’ kicker Stephen Gostkowski has a left hip injury that will require season-ending surgery, per source. He is expected to be ready to kick for the 2020 season.

 

[luuked]

Sounds like the rumors of his hip injury in the offseason were true and he tried to play through it.

 

[363839]

I think we should bring in that guy what kicked for the Bears last year.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I liken it to golf.
No issue w the driver , woods and irons.

Close chipping and putting the brain gets in the way sometimes

 

[catent]

Have you read Bob outside the Draft forum?

Haven't paid particularly close attention to his posts, but haven't noticed that they're consistently troll'y or anything. Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention.

 

[TouchDown Patriots]

Ghost only had to do one thing:

"Dior JOB!"

 

[Sicilian]

Not having confidence in the balance on your plant leg can lead to a lot of bad follow through, I'm sure.

Your whole schtick here is destructive; harassing and berating legitimate fans/posters is pretty toxic.

If it gets you to stop posting about what a bad man Antonio Brown is and his pirannah killing ways we will all be better for it.

BTW you liberal schtick is the most embarrassing thing on here.

 

[Its_The_Patriots]

Heal up Gost...

 

[TheBostonStraggler]

This sucks.
When you have a top D but an O still finding its rhythm, effective kicking (FGs, EPs) is even more critical (good kicking is never unimportant). Whoever Gost's replacement is and how effective he is almost certainly will be the difference between one W or L.
Fingers crossed.
