It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Plus you just added another half million to the Joe Thuney extension fund.And there you have it. He can pass as an emergency kicker, he can kick the skin off the ball, and they obviously felt comfortable with him as a holder.
Actually no.Does Bailey kick with his left foot?
I like ANY Breaking Bad meme, references, etc.
I guess I would have preferred if the Patriots saved money on a cheaper/better kicker (~$4.5M) . Rather than letting go a good punter with $1.5M cap hit.
Maybe not so much what Allen lost than a rook with a higher upside at a lower price.This was interesting from the moment they drafted Bailey. I wonder what they thought Allen lost last year.
If you trusted him implicitly, your initial thoughts wouldn't be worry. But, I understand. Allen was terrific and a great teammate, as far as we know. But, he'll land on his feet and Bailey will be good, too.Honestly don’t know how to feel about this. Allen was really good with punts landing inside the opponents 20 yard line, corner kicks, just laying it up there for the Slater’s and Ebner’s of the world to down it deep. Good cold weather punter. Good holder on kicks (did Bailey cause Gost’s miss this week). Just worried this can backfire despite Bailey’s booming leg (possibly out kicking the coverage ?). Initial thoughts are, worry. But Belichick LOVES special teams, so I trust him implicitly.
