NE/TB Nick Folk's rough night missing 3 Field Goals 10/5/17



I had a chance to watch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers play the New England Patriots on CBS channel 3 last night. I watched Nick Folk of the Bucs miss 3 field goals from 52 yards, 48 yards, and 31 yards. The Bucs despite that still only lost 19-14 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, FL because of the Patriots penalties and not being able to dominate like they have in the past against teams offensively. Hey Bucs fans, coming from a Bucs fan for 18 years now our kicker sucks. When we are in close games against good teams like the Patriots I'm not sure that Nick Folk feel confident enough to make field goals from 40 yards or longer if the game come down to a game winning field goal. The Bucs need a field goal kicker who is not only confident when the game is on the line but who is a winner. I still remember when we had Matt Bryant (now a member of the Atlanta Falcons) and the game winner he kicked to help the Bucs beat the Philadelphia Eagles 23-21 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, FL in 2006. Matt Bryant hit a 62-yarder that I will never forget.  


The Bucs as a team should say to Nick Folk, "Nick Folk thank you for your service and we wish you the best but unfortunately you have been cut from the Bucs." Bucs fans will start booing if we don't cut Nick Folk because we could have won 23-19 against the Patriots last night had he would have made those 3 field goals. Jameis Winston played a very controlled game and receivers just couldn't make the catches. Quarterbacks always take the blame when his team loses but you can't blame Winston for this lost because he helped put the Bucs in position to win. Overall it was a good game and fun to watch. It was a while since I watched a football game on TV. I thought Winston was going to pull off the "Hell Mary" at the end... My 2 Cents.
