Thomas Morstead
 

In all the excitement of the Saints NFCCG victory, lets not forget Thomas Morstead. I know Percy Harvin had migraine headaches, but Morstead did not give him a chance to return kickoffs. He put just about every kickoff deep into the end zone for a touchback.

I thought that was BIG in this game (neutralizing Harvin's return ability).

Between the punts inside the 20 and the booming kickoff's, this guy has been a GREAT addition to our team.

THIS!!

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

I said he was worth the 2 picks and i still stand by it...

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

Ya know He should get a game ball. He punted very well his kickoff were in the end zone. Game ball Thomas Morestead

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

when i got to my dad's house after softball, the first thing he mentioned was the kicker on kickoffs.....he said that our kickoff guy was single handidly winning the special teams battle for us

little did i know he was kicking it to the back of the endzone every time

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

Moorestead was money so was Hartly were set at those two positions

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

Harvin slammed the ball down in disgust in the endzone several times after Morstead kickoffs. It was good to see him realize that his big play return ability was taken away.

the dude was solid, i admit i for one gave kickers a bad time this year. one was the tampa game when garret missed the winner, but dude you can kick my ass for ever doubting you my bro.

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

Morstead helped this team big time last night. He was worth getting no matter what the price. He has been good all season.

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

He's a great kid! I'm glad we picked him up!

Oh yeah, and we're buds on Facebook too! :D

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

I think his foot and leg is not made of human material and we may have hired a bionic leg kicker in Moorestead

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

ok I am sold on him.

Re: Thomas Morstead
 

He sure was booming dem punts. 63 yards for his longest on is not shabby at all with an average of 49.1.

Harvins longest Kickoff return was 17 yards and that tells you Morstead had quite some height on his kicks.

I've been impressed with Thomas (Morestead) all year! He is solid, and hardly ever disappoints! I couldn't believe those bombs to the back of the endzone last night! Our guests, (who are not big fans of any team), made the comment that we had an awesome kicker! And we do! As far as Garrett's field goal, I couldn't even watch. I was in the kitchen praying with my head down on the counter, and when I heard the "thud" sound, I knew it had gone through the posts! (I think it went through with angel's wings)! Whew....what a game!

That guy could work for NASA and kick football shaped satellites into space, is my guess.

I posted to the MVP thread before I say this one. Without a doubt he is our top draft pick and should have been considered for rookie of the year IMHO. He is worth everything we gave for him. When he kicked that 63 yrd. punt I had flash backs to another 63 ys. kick in Saints history . . . Tom Dempsey"s.
