Re: Week 8 thread
Big leg Bill is pretty much the only reason I’m watching this game. Outside of Aubrey who isn’t human, Reichard is arguably the best kicker in the game. Having been able to say that as a Vikings fan since Gary Anderson in 98…

Re: Week 8 thread
I thought the Vikings looked good last week despite losing...just too many FGs. I'm sure they will be in it. The Chargers don't put people away often. The Vikings are my favorite NFC team, so I typically am pulling for them. I have JJ McCarthy in fantasy and had Wentz one week because my other QB was Purdy...and I had Caleb Williams on a bye.

I don't even really know kickers, unless they've been around for awhile. Dicker is the best kicker the Chargers have had in a long while. Carney was great years ago until the playoffs, where he blew multiple games.

Re: Week 8 thread
We probably just love our kickers now because we have horror nightmares of past kicker scenarios in games.

Who was the kicker for you guys like 20 years ago who was pretty good when he was young. Then missed a short kick in the playoffs and was basically never seen again.

Haha true. This is the first time really as a Vikings fans outside of Blair Walsh’s rookie year. When the kicker lines up for a kick, I actually feel confident he’s going to make it.
Most years I despise seeing the kicker come out haha

I’m so over Dallas Turner. Pretty sure he has more penalties than tackles this year so far

Re: Week 8 thread
Bad series there for Herbert, but lots of pressure.

Of course I mention that and he misses his first kick of the season.
