for now i am going to apply the kareem hunt rule when it comes to our new kicker.
botched the first, he will be game money the rest of the way? :-)
i must say it is weird seeing the fans in the screen shots of the new kicker. the old one always was shown with nothing but grass behind him. :-) [Reply]

What an absolute monster.
The trajectory on that kick reminded me of the Stoyanovich game winner kick vs Denver in 1997. Conditions were tough. Frigid temps, 54 yards. Low and line drivey.
Obviously, the stage and pressure were much greater for Butker and Thompson. Whatta kick. [Reply]
He's the best kicker in the game rn. I wouldn't take anybody over him. A true weapon and one of just a handful of players who have all three rings in this dynasty. [Reply]

That kick went through the "goal posts" twice. The kick was so low that it could have been blocked, and nearly was. As the ball crossed over the defensive line it went between the hands of two 49ers. Fortunately, nobody had their hand up in between them. [Reply]
Butker deservedly getting a lot of love on GMFB this morning.
Kyle Brandt: "I'm not so sure Justin Tucker is this generation's greatest kicker. He's supposed to be the greatest kicker of all-time? I'm not sure he's even the best kicker in his own era. Harrison Butker is nails. Multiple Super Bowls, they don't do it without him. Love Harrison Butker, he deserves credit." [Reply]

and Dustin Hopkins got 2nd team and missed 3 FGs and 2 xps... Total BS, especially when one of the 2 misses was due to an underinflated cheatriots ball... [Reply]
