[QUOTE="jacketjp, post: 759697, member: 949"] You totally missed both points. My initial point, stated quite clearly, was that I don't care what happened at practice. Kicking is such a mental game and Wells had such a strong track record on the field that it's my opinion he should have been given ample opportunity on the field. He was 50 for 50 career, including 2 for 2 thus far in 2019, and he was benched without missing a single kick on the field. That's insane. That's asinine. That last part is obviously my opinion, but given the results and where we are to date with our kicking game, I think it's incredibly naïve and the fantastically homer-ish to try to argue that we've managers our kickers well. My second point was that you should NOT treat kickers and DTs the same way. That's what CGC did, by his own admission. He didn't care the position or the ability or the track record, everyone had to earn their starting position each week in practice. That's all well and good for DTs, but I think that's a piss poor way to handle kickers. You may disagree, but, again, look at the results. Finally, I did not provide any "analysis" or "conjuctuer" (sic). I provided statistics, facts, and my opinion. [/QUOTE]
