    On the PRs I saw, Marshall didn't have very good blocking, so had nowhere to run. He's confident and looking to make something happen every play, and if the blocking isn't there, that will make him more tentative. It's good that he's looking to make something happen, but sometimes one just has to accept there's nothing there and take the 2-3 yards. I think he'll learn that in time.

    Can't run sideways and in circles, go up the field

    Folk cost only 1. His FG was [blocked.] That's on the fucking BLOCKERS ahead of him.

    It's also on Folk for not chipping the ball high enough. It was a 22 yarder, you don't have to drive it for power.

    At least we don't have to cut Folk after today.

    Agree

    ST is so important

    The kick coverage

    The actual punter turning the field over and NOT hurting us


    Makes me happy

    And somehow Folk doesn't know this, am I right?

    I'm not sure what your point is. Of course Folk knows he's supposed to chip the ball. Just like any player who screws up knows he screwed up. But Folk didn't execute and that's on him.

    I suggest you watch the highlight again, especially on the block. You will see the blocking hand THROUGH the LOS when Folk kicks it. Yeah. The middle was eaten up for a good yard if not more. If you are saying Folk should have compensated for that with the power of foresight, then fine - maybe Folk could have seen it so it's his fault for not kicking it away from the middle. Maybe he could hook it or something.
