#27TheDominator Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Does anybody know who held last night? Story was all/most of his misses in camp were with the backup P holding. Not sure about last night, but the miss right, followed by miss left screams of over-correction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he has a big leg and tries plenty of long kicks, but his extra point percentage is sub 90% which is not very good. Career wise, he is worse than Catanzaro on extra points. Myers was below Catanzaro's career average on extra points last year. Catanzaro is presumably done here, but I don't see any reason to dump him until somebody they like shakes loose. They are kickers. The Jets will find one and he will be fine. Meh. 2 point tries are statistically superior anyways. You're likely to convert over 50% of them.

We can bring in a camp body or 2 to see what they can do, then wait until cutdowns. As long as we have a Kicker we feel good about by Week 1, I don't think it matters much.

Actually, it is under 48%. Remember that if you go for two every time, you will using up your goal line plays. You are going to be much less likely to fool a team in the fourth quarter. The argument is fairly meaningless to the point I was making, which is that claiming Myers only misses from 50 out is false and misleading. The Jets were 27th in the league in extra point percentage. Extra points equate to 33 yard field goals, and he was bottom of the barrel. FWIW, in 2017 Catanzaro was 29 for 29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year will remain the best year of his entire career until the day he retires. He was never as good as he was last year. It was an outlier year. It was an aberration. It was fools gold. It was 2015 Ryan Fitzpatrick. Just go sign a guy who’s consistently been one of the best for years and that’s Matt Bryant. Guy was knocking em down when I was in 7th grade lmao.(currently 23) he’s been great for awhile now and it beats what we’ve had. 95% kicking last year is nothing to sneeze at. Agreed. The mistake wasn't letting Myers go. The mistake was thinking Chandler Catanzaro would solidly be "the guy", as evidenced by not even bringing in camp competition as a 2nd leg. The Ravens have Justin freaking Tucker, probably the best Kicker in the NFL, and still brought in competition, and they might well net a draft pick out of their backup Kicker. But that's an easily fixable problem in the coming weeks. The Kicker carousel will come through for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he still has the leg to hit 50+ yard FG's when needed, he has enough leg. Since 2016 he's 18/22 (82 %) from 50+ with makes from 59, 57 and 57 in that span.

nyjunc Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 The Jets have been lucky with kickers in recent years but they have also not been playing meaningful games. This is the first year a K will have some pressure in a while. Maybe Chandler is feeling it? It's still early though and I'm sure Douglas will be looking around.

Umm, we know Catanzaro sucks, and lots of Kickers will likely do better than him, so the "opportunity cost" is low. And there are plenty of Free Agent Kickers I listed we can pick up in the meantime if we don't end up finding one off the cut scrap heap that we like. My recommendation is picking up Matt Bryant and/or a young available Kicker now (College UDFA types) for practice competition and then seeing who comes available after Week 3. I'm NOT advocating waiting until Preseason Week 3 to completely resolve our Kicking situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There literally could not be less pressure on the guy. He is the only kicker in camp. Fatigue from handling all the kicking duties is a more likely lame excuse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very different than when he was here last and very different for our other kickers in recent years. Whether a K is the only guy in camp or not is meaningless, Ks are the most expendable position and they are always kicking for a job unless they are one of the top guys.

JetsFanatic Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I firmly believe that the Jets should bring in competition for Catanzaro. However, please remember he gave us a very good season in 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, please remember he gave us a very good season in 2017. Nick Folk gave us several good seasons but has now been out of the NFL for 2+ seasons despite being a relatively young 34. When Kickers stop being effective, you move on to someone else. It's unlikely they'll recapture any prior "magic" down the road. Especially since there's ALWAYS Kickers available, given that generally only 32 get rostered and there's always more than 32 decent kickers in the world at any given time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
