I watch how he boots the ball and he does everything right.

It’s the operation something hasn’t been right since he lost Huber and Harris.

He’s either going to need to change his kicking style or we need to bring in people who he’s comfortable working with.

Honestly though, Evan needs to get back to being clutch and he knows it. The Holder and Snapper have to be also considered always though.

As far as I have seen Cal Adomitas is a fine Holder, as we all know Rehkow has things to work on as a Holder but is a damn good Punter.

Once everything gets ironed out I still love this team to win it all more than any other. No team is beating the Chiefs but the Bengals is all I know.

The reality is McPherson isnt as good as some of our fans try to make him out to be.  I posted this is the pay the McPherson thread a few months ago but some of our fans think he is this top kicker because he has made a couple of clutch kicks but ignore all the ones he misses.

McPherson has not had one single season in the NFL where he has finished top 10 in overall kicking percentage.

2021 he made 84.8% which ranked him at #21 of kickers with at least 10 attempts

2022 he made 82.8% which ranked him at #25 of kickers with at least 10 attempts

2023 he made 83.9% which ranked him at #21 of kickers with at least 10 attempts

The guy has never finished in the top 20 much less top 10 in field goal percentage.  He is not elite and he certainly is not money on his field goal attempts.

I don’t know if this is new to give the rookie a bit more time to get it down and in position.

If I was coaching I’d tell him to snap it straighter and tell Mac to curve his run and start half a step further back not only gives the holder a bit more time to get it down but would help Mac line it up incase of any problems.

Only trouble with that is that you give the defence a split second longer to try block it.

That could be the most boring thing I’ve ever typed

The most attempts without a miss since he was drafted.
