The truth is that Bullock did well and Elliott had some struggles. Hence the head ball coach saying "it wasn't close". Again...they wanted Elliott to win the job. They would've given it to him if he had a good camp and preseason, regardless of Bullock's performance. 

I wouldn't say Bullock sucks, but he's probably a below league average kicker. I'm sure you've seen me calling for the Bengals to sign Graham Gano. 

You're right, Bullock is an average at best kicker who becomes less than that in crunch time. He did win the job because he was more consistent this summer, but i can't ignore his first really, really meaningful kick (to win the Indy game) being the one that he missed. 

Elliott is younger and a bit stronger. It would be quite nice if he could get his head on straight, and when Bullock falters--like he's destined to do--Elliott is ready to step in and be a solid, above average kicker. 

But let's be honest. Things don't work like that in Bengal Land.
