it makes zero sense to me, maybe JRob can’t swallow his pride and make the call to Parkey and admit he never should’ve cut him in the first place. I’m pretty sure since he’s unemployed he’d be happy to come back. It’s hard to say kicking cost us the game yesterday but it definitely cost us a chance at the end, and has cost us what 2-3 wins already. I don’t understand the loyalty to Succop at this point I belive Kern could make a field goal inside 40 yards and would be a better option. Or atleast let Santoso or whatever his name is attempt one while he’s on the roster.

The only thing I can come up with as to why Succop hasnt been cut is his salary. Hed account for $2M in dead money at a time we cant afford to be wasting money. We need all of our cap for all these upcoming FA's.

So if youre JR youre thinking, "Im gonna lose $2M cutting Succop, then lose another $2M signing a new guy".

I mean to me its worth it when you have a guy costing you W's

Almost everything about that screams Titans FO.

Only a moron would allow $2 mil cost wins in preparation for next season when they could be hoisting a Lombardi this season if not for a kicker.
 
The kicking woes literally cost us 3 games so far this year (bills, colts, and yesterday) granted yesterday my not have been a certain win but how do you keep this scrub Succop on the team now with 2 critical games coming up that he may have a hand in F’ing up ? Just pure stupidity at this point...
 
I’m fairly sure we’ve just been resting Pamphile all season in preparation for the season finale. Literally NO other explanation could be given for keeping him on the 53 man roster this long.

i still don't know why you don't go after undrafted college kickers instead of the same rotating door of mediocre kickers that were cut

"this guy kicked 50% on his last team, maybe he'll be better here"

... ok

probably less than 5 teams a year need a kicker, you mean to tell me kicker #6 coming out of college is worse than proven scrubs?

This blows my mind too. I actually know mike weaver that kicked at wake forest 2 years ago and he has a video on YouTube hitting 60 yard fgs with his right and 50 yarders with his left. He only got calls from arena fb teams and that league that let the fans pick the plays (i forget the name). He actually played the whole season and did pretty well in the 2nd one. But, there's literally 100s of guys that can do this. Hell i coach d1 youth soccer right now and almost all 18 of my players can hit from 45, 2 can hit from 50 and theses guys are 16. Why don't they actually look for kickers. It's a good ole boys club or something.
 
The Titans are 8/18 on field goals this year. That's a team field goal conversion rate of 44.4%.

:puke:
 
Someone reported that the reason Parkey isn’t back is because of Parkey. He apparently is dealing with family issues or something and is choosing to stay at home.

Here's what kills me... the Titans bring in a guy as big as a linebacker to kickoff the ball through the endzone and HE CAN'T FRIGGIN' DO IT more than once a game!

I don't think kickers are always trying to kick it through the endzone. If you can kick it high and force the returner to return it, you stand a good chance of getting him down inside the 25. Maybe it's the other 10 guys on kickoff team that aren't producing.

If he was hanging up the kickoff and putting it on the goal line, I’d think you could be right. But that’s not what is happening.

He gets the occasional TB so are those mistakes?

Someone had to do it, so I did.
This is each Kickers KO numbers and avg. take with it what you will.

Santos - 21KO, 12TB, 9 returned.
Of the 9 returned, avg KO to 1.2 yard line, avg return to 24.5

Parkey - 12KO, 9 TB, 3 returns (1 KO returned was from the 50)
Avg kick to 4, avg return to 22.3

Succop - 16 KO, 3 TB, 1 onside, 1 squib (not counted as return), 11 returns
Avg kick to 1.1, avg return to 25.9

Santoso - 16 KO, 8 TB, 1 onside, 7 returns
Avg kick to 4.1, avg return to 27.
He also loses points for supposedly being a specialist at this.

This shows me succop doesn’t have the leg for TB.
Since moving on from Parkey and Santos, the avg start position has gotten worse. 100% TB would be an improvement.

This also shows me that those short kicks Santoso does, are actually worse for the avg starting field position. He’s got the leg for TB (5/6 against Oak), that’s what he should be doing.
 
Yeah. He had ONE job. Seriously.

Parkey might have held out for more $$$. Whoever comes in, I expect Succop to be put on IR by tomorrow.

Someone said Parkey had family issues which is why he wouldn’t resign.

I did see that Tennessee tried out Maher.

IF Santoso’s 1 job was to kick TB (still not sure) he kicked 5/6 against Oakland. If that wasn’t what he was for, I truly don’t know what he was “special” at.

I hope not.

On The Zone this week, a guy called in and said Succop's longest FG in warm-ups Sunday was 37 yards.

Oh wow that’s awful, it shouldn’t be that difficult to find someone that can make anything inside of 40 yards 75% of the time. If Succop misses them
In warmups with no pressure he’s definitely done! Sign Carli Lloyd that female soccer player was making 55 yard field goals look easy!!
