You know what you have in bullock and you know hes a journey man. Atleast the fans know maybe not dumb marvin.

So where do you think the coaching staff should find that magic 50+ kicker from? Are they out there kicking field goals on some high school practice field just waiting for a team to discover them? Should they have drafted a kicker again this year? By the way Jake Elliott is 1-3 from 50+ yards also, you know that long range kicker some hated to see cut. Kickers that can be depended upon for automatic long range kicks are pretty rare. There have been a lot of teams with kicking issues this year. So if there is some magic kicker waiting to be discovered I imagine someone would have found him by now. :)
Anyway yeah a kicker can miss, and a big deal in the gake was bullock missed and we allowed a extra field goal before half. 6 point swing right there.
