There aren't 32 legit kickers, so guys like Bullock who have had a measure of NFL success get to fill the turnstile of jobs.

I think that was his second miss of the day, wasn't it?

Lol Dan Hoard with a little passive aggressive shade thrown at Bullock after that miss.
Evan McPherson was a great draft pick

Well, at least he kept it positive and toward the Bengals. I mean, he could have said something like "Fat Randy, now losing games for teams other than the Bengals!"..

No he was 3/3 with 46 yard long prior to that.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

A: Because he is 19th among active kickers in FG accuracy.
https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/fg_perc_career.htm
He was even better for us, hitting on 84.9%...which would be good for 12th among active kickers.
He's also been rock solid on XPs and is capable of hitting from 50+, as he went 7/14 for us from that distance.
People on here confuse "not Justin Tucker" with "trash kicker". Look, McPherson was a great pick and the type of kicker who can be an actual weapon. That doesn't = Bullock was trash. The stats bear that out. He was a solid/average kicker. Not an asset, but not a liability. We could've done a heck of a lot worse.
As someone who watched a lot of Lions games before they got Matt Prater, I know what bad kicking actually looks like. We've actually been very fortunate in that area for a long time. We've had some guys miss some clutch kicks, but that happens to almost everyone.

Exactly
To hear some talk on here you'd think the guy was pure awful, he wasn't.

Out of all the kickers in my Bengals memory (Breech, Graham, Pelfrey, Rackers, Nugent) to me Randy stands out as the biggest choker of all.
I dont know what the stats say but he seemed to have knack for blowing in when it counts and I will never get that bad feeling I had after he won an Oscar for faking on pulling his whatever last yr in the opener. I could care less hes overweight, eat chilli dogs all day for all I care, just make those kicks!...... remember Sebastian Janikowski?

No one here wishes we still had Bullock instead of McPherson.
I've just never been into piling on a player who was serviceable.
Kinda reminds me of when players like Peko and Maualuga got hate.

I believe it was Jay Morrison who talked about Randy's stats. He was pretty good in the 1st-3rd quarters. It was the 4th quarter where he really struggled.
