December 10, 2025Dec 10 Birds just released the long snapper. Elliot had similar issues with a long snapper, and his kicking improved significantly after a change was made.

He was fine with Lovato for seven years, then wasn't for one year, then was fine with Hughlett for a handful of games, then wasn't fine with Adomitis for a handful of games. It's the kicker not the long snapper. But if they think this will help him psychologically then go for it.

Hughlett got injured. It's not easy to find a good, reliable long snapper.

December 10, 2025Dec 10 The problem for Elliott is that in the league right now there are plenty of really good reliable kickers who make 50 yard FGs look easy. On a team that keeps shooting itself in the foot we could really do with a reliable kicker.
December 11, 2025Dec 11 Jake has been terrible this season. The only thing keeping him on the roster is his really good playoff kicks.Possibly another roster spot the Iggles will have to fill next season.
December 11, 2025Dec 11 They seem to blame that on the LS. Bringing back the injured guy who started the season to fix the problem. Not clear how the LS can affect the kicker more than the holder.
December 11, 2025Dec 11 Have BA on my fantasy team. Have to be able to make 50+ yard field goals routinely now. Just how it is. Pretty impressive some of these long range bombs. Jake has to step up or we need another BA.
