New Saints kicker Kai Forbath sees ‘kicker-friendly’ environment in New Orleans
 

When he misses a FG we will see how happy he is!

Frankly, the Saints’ kicking history surprises Forbath, who spent three years in Washington before the team released him following the season opener.

“It’s kind of weird to me,” Forbath said. “I came from Washington, and they had the same kind of kicker situation, I think when I came in they had 19 kickers in 20 years or something like that. Then I realized why with their playing conditions and field and whatnot, but I don’t get it here.”

I'm glad he sees the environment. Now if he can just see the goal posts and knock that ball between'em, we'll all get along real well.

Kicking consistency would be really really nice.

Apparently he hasn't met Sean Payton yet. :wink:

Yeah no ****. One of the most impatient and distrusting coaches in the NFL when it comes to kickers. Lol.

Sure bud....piece of cake. You'll be looking over your shoulder every time you kick once you miss the first one.

Damn your a mind reader.

True. Goodness knows what Forbath will make of Paytin icing his own kicker.

Well, he pretty much made Washington the scapegoat, blaming the field conditions. I hope for his sake (& ours) that's really what it was.

-- Well it should be kicker friendly. You're basically kicking on a pool table
indoors. no excuses.

-- just hit the 40's and inside, thats all i ask.... you miss a 50 in the 1st half.
no biggie... hit the chip shots and the extra points, son.
