Best Kicker

Who is the best kicker in the AFCN?

wonderbredd24 · 07-07-2010, 06:52 PM

Most accurate kicker in Browns history, which is saying something since that includes Lou Groza.

Phil Dawson is a great kicker.

Jeff Reed is constantly getting overlooked as one of the best kickers in the league.

He's 83.3% during his entire career, and has gone 92%, 87.1%, and 87.1% the past three years, missing only 10 field goals the past three years combined (out of 87 attempts. He can hit the long ones (53 yarder two years ago) and his accuracy is much more surprising considering the condition in which Heinz field constantly is in. He's also just missed three extra points in his entire life, out of 291 attempts.

I usually refrain from making arguments that could me misleading as homerism, but I had to root for Jeff Reed. He's really one of the best kickers in the league and virtually no one (not even some Steeler fans) give him credit for it.

Not really sure, but I think Jeff Reed has actually been the most accurate kicker during the past three seasons (combined).

I'll keep checking this. Update it in a bit.

Mr. Goosemahn · 07-07-2010, 07:05 PM

And indeed he is.

"Reed, the NFL's most accurate field goal kicker over the past three seasons,..."

He's also the most accurate kicker in Steelers history, more than Gary Anderson.

If it is about non-clutch situations....Graham is good.

BmoreBlackByrdz · 07-07-2010, 09:47 PM

went with Jeff Reed after what the two Steeler fans said about him.

LOL at graham getting a vote

its reed, hes a total ******* idiot but hes a good kicker. blows at kickoffs though and its a sorry excuse for a last resort tackler

How in the hell is Jeff Reed in the lead? He is the worst kicker ever! And he needs to be brutally murdered!

niel89 · 10-14-2010, 05:50 PM

I lol'd at that the other day. This was done during the offseason.

Bengals78 · 10-14-2010, 06:06 PM

Nugent has actually looked really really good so far.
12/13
2 from 50+
Had the one blocked but that wasn't his fault. So theoretically if we would have cut Dennis Roland he would be 13-13. Most coming in at 30 yards or more.

Mr. Goosemahn · 10-31-2010, 09:59 PM

Reed is making me look like a fool. :S

He was great in the past couple of seasons. He's been pretty mediocre this one. He improved his kickoffs but is missing way too many FG's.

MattyFos · 12-15-2010, 09:15 AM

Reed got cut, can we award Phil Dawson with the title of best kicker in the AFCN? Phil is having a down year though.

ellsy82 · 12-31-2010, 07:54 PM

I thought Billy Cundiff is having a pretty decent year. Lots of clutch kicks.

I agree Cundiff is the clear favorite now. He is killing it with touchbacks on kickoffs too.
