A stone cold kicker with a powerful leg is an absolute game changer. It changes how you and your opponent play the game. It dictates your offense, defense, aggressive play-calling all because you don’t have a reliable kicker or one you can trust to hit a game winner over 50.Cool
Still not a game changer, maybe yall got different definitions. My definition of a game changer is their lack of a guy who didn’t get them a touchdown there or even a closer fg OR our game changer or difference makers stopped them from getting any closer for the kick
Either way if u wanna count kickers or not, if we name two players and then go straight to kicker as GAME CHANGERS…Thats a problem, nobody ever mentions our kickers from our glory days we talk about playmaka, JB, Tana ,hester, Dre, Portis, Reed, ST etc etc those are mf game changers
My senior year of high school we had a head case soccer player for a kicker. He could kick the ball into the back of the end zone for a touchback any time. But he had nerves of sh•t. We lost 3 of the first 5 games by a total of 7 points. He missed FGs 5 times in 3 games. Not only missing tying but game winning attempts. We ended up changing our approach and only attempting gimme attempts towards the beginning of the game. He was so mentally shook we didn’t even attempt FGs the 2nd half of the year. We went 3-2 the last 5 but still didn’t make the playoffs because our physc patient for a kicker was lost in his own head.
A great kicker is an absolute game changer. It means guaranteed points when you get to the opponents 35. And you give yourself an opportunity to tie or win a game by getting to your opponents 45 with a minute in the game and no timeouts with a legit QB.
