I mean not being able to kick field goals? He just sits on the sideline and kicks balls in the net. Do you think he wishes he could kick more field gals?

I do

After kicking the ground just before the half in last years playoff game, then watching the Ravens zip downfield for a TD, he's probably very glad his services are rarely needed until AFTER the offense scores. I'm sure kickers are as competitive as anyone, but find it hard to believe any of them truly relish game-winning kicks, and those and the misses are about the only ones anyone remembers. Yet kickers always lead the league in scoring because they get points every time the team does (except safeties.) I always find that ironic.

No, I don't think Prater gets bored; he spends 95% of every Broncos game just watching from the best seat in the house, and the team pays HIM (well) for the privilege.

I'm sure he likes kicking PATs better.

Does he get lonely? No, he's got our punter to keep him company.

He gets more action now kicking extra points and kickoffs then he ever did with field goals.

When I first saw this thread, I didn't think anyone would reply. :rolleyes:

I'd much rather continue seeing Matt kicking touchbacks.
Rather continue to see TDs in lieu of FGs duh.
And it's getz, not get's lol !

I'm praying for people to quit over-analyzing sarcastic threads.

This made me giggle a bit. But seriously, our punter rarely puts his helmet on until garbage time ( the entire 4th quarter). He's the one we should be concerned about.

I think we should make it up to him and let him try a 65+ yard FG.

We had an opportunity for a 61 yarder, and brought out our punter after we had the game in hand. That irritated me
