Can we all take a second and recognize Colton Schmidt

As big a Moorman fan as I am, it was time. Powell was a HUGE mistake, but Colton Schmidt is a great find. Kudos to DW for recognizing that a punter who lost to perennial AllPro Andy Lee in San Fran might be pretty good. Dude is nails on dropping punts inside the 20. We will see how he fares in the swirling winter winds. Hopefully he'll be kicking inside the Ralph during the week and not just inside the barn. Figuring out the winds in the Ralph is key to being either Rick Tuten (bad), or Chris Mohr (2nd best after Moorman).

How about some love for Gay too? That is what a KO specialist looks like-- ball through the back of the end zone.

Just wondering--we had a super short kickoff that was fielded around the 15 and taken to about the 35. Think it was on the Wallace td drive. Did Gay kick that one or was that Carpenter? Seemed really short considering Gay has been really consistent.

I think there was an unsportsmanlike penalty, which pushed the kickoff spot back by 15 yards.

Wait, weren't we all complaining last year that the new kickoff rules pretty much did away with kickoff returns? So how excited should I be about a guy who kicks touchbacks?

As excited as the Dolphins would have been to see a touchback instead of CJ going to the house. Killed the Fish mo, and it was all over but the shoutin'.
