A huge part of that job is mental. The Browns are going through the same thing. Roberto Aguayo is another example 100% correct. Its real easy to hit them in practice when they don't mean anything. Zimmer already lost out on the playoffs once because his kicker couldn't hit a chip shot with only a couple of seconds left on the clock. Guy was 0-3 on field goals. Granted one was a 63 yarder but the other 2 were 24 yards and 39 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Dub Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 1 hour ago, Jason said: Zimmer cut a kicker he drafted? What an idiot. On that note there were costly missed FG's in a few games yesterday. Where did Jonathan Brown end up? I understand cutting him if he was missing at 30-40 yards but I'd hoped we'd keep working with him. We don't trust the guy we have now beyond 45 so it seems to me it'd be worth the effort developing a replacement with that kind of range. Again, I'd still rather have a guy that's automatic at 35 yards but I' though we might get Brown on the practice squad. What kind of contact are teams allowed with unsigned players? Could the Bengals do something like pay for his living expenses, trainers, gym membership and a Netflix subscription without actually paying a salary? Hire him on as a strangely overpaid assistant equipment guy? Yeah, that sounds shady. The kind of shady that other teams are probably doing.

The great ones are the ones that get over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooky Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 This may be the worst I've seen so far. If they called it by the book. The book is fucked. And at such a critical moment. Definitely a WWE league now. More and more unwatchable with each passing week.

Shebengal Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 In the meantime, Browns fans were trolling @Zanegonzo36, thinking it was Zane Gonzalez' Twitter handle. Turns out it belongs to a college baseball coach named Zane Gonzalez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a week after Stash Gordon started after Hueless said he wouldn't and somehow did not know he did.
