Cowboys Say So Long To K Suisham (1 Viewer)

[dirtyhalos]

The Dallas Cowboys on Thursday released K Shaun Suisham, leaving K Mike Vanderjagt with both kickoff and place-kicking responsibilities. The Cowboys kept Suisham on the roster because Vanderjagt was recently bothered by a groin injury.

They may be saying hello again to him pretty soon. I was at the game and it was rockin in Texas stadium.

One of my favorite moments was during a TV timeout when they played a commerical featuring Vanderjagt on the jumbotrons. The booing was deafening. He was standing by himself as usual and you could tell he wanted to crawl under a rock and hide.

The self-proclaimed best kicker ever is a joke now. Bring back Suisham!!!

If the Cowboys had lost yesterday, I think Vandy'd be on the street by now. He's shown absolutely nothing, and for that team right now every win and every FG attempt is vitally important.

Vanderjagt misses two chip shots and they cut the other kicker?

The original post in this thread was from Oct 12. I was just revisiting things here. The latest talk is cutting Vandy after the Thanksgiving game and bring Suisham back.

Can't say I feel bad for Vandy. All that running of the mouth and things come back to you when you struggle.

Daniel Snyder has Vandy's agent on speed dial! Cut him and he will send his private jet and million dollar contract ASAP!

Oh, sorry. I missed that.Knowing what a pompous jerk Vanderjagt is, wouldn't it be awesome if they cut him DURING the Thanksgiving game? On national tv?

43 and 46yd fgs are chip shots? what did vinatieri do at new england?

as long as he's good less than 40, he's a huge upgrade over any kicker they've had with bill parcells.

For the second highest paid kicker in NFL history? They better be.

Vanderjagt is German for "shanked kick"

People are getting on Vandy a lot. He's missed 5 kicks this year and made, what, 12? Not a good percentage. What amazes me is the misses he's had.

3 of the 5 missed ones were off the upright. The 4th was blocked due to a blocking-mistake. That attempt appeared to be dead-center. The 5th kick was missed by maybe 2 feet wide.

Give the guy 6 inches on 3 kicks and he's missed only 2. Learn to block properly and he's missed only 1. And that was not off much.

The bottom line is that he's 12 of 17. But he's kicked a whole lot better than that.

sorry GB but if my aunt had ##### she'd be my uncle.the fact is vanderjagt has been a huge dissapoint, hes cost points at critical times and that is plain inexcusable for the money he is being paid.

Why don't we just make the goal posts the width of the entire endzone?This sounds like what I was hearing about Bledsoe... "Give him the time and he's the best QB in the league!" Who isn't?

I'd rather give 6 inches to my wife. That bum doesn't do anything for me.
