If there is no competition why was Brown doing all the kicking?  If Bullock is the kicker they are going with no matter what then why not give him the opportunities in preseason?  You know to get some game time kicks, for example from 55 yards, like the one Brown nailed with room to spare?  Are they afraid Bullock will get hurt or something kicking a field goal in preseason?  Or is this some standard weird response from Merv that might mean later there really is a competition?  If not, are they just letting Brown kick in the preseason games to audition for another team?  I don't get it.  I am not sure how they have been comparing in practice, but I'd like to hope there is still a chance at a competition between the two.

Keep in mind that Jon Brown has only made three FGs in the NFL game, so very small sample size to consider keeping him over Bullock.  That said, I don't think Bullock makes that 55 yard FG and I don't think his leg strength for KO is anything like Brown's leg strength.
