Sorry, but I blame him for 3 of our loses. Including last night. If he nails that 50 yarder (I know its a long one) its a whole new game at the end. And we probably win. He needs to go. He hasn't proven anything to me at all.
I was thinking the same thing. If Carpenter knocks that one home, and Hartline doesn't get flagged for pushing off, then we would have won that game in my opinion. The defense played well enough to keep it close. We should have stole that one. But instead he missed it and Tannehill threw a couple of picks trying to force it.
And "if" Buffalo has a decent QB they dont settle for field goals & they blow us out.
Please , enough of making a case why we should have won games we lost. There are "ifs" on both teams during a game. Good teams finish , make plays & dont make excuses.
You're right, on a good team their kicker would have made that kick, he would have made the play. Then when the team drove past the 50 yardline late in the game their quarterback would have checked it down instead of forcing it downfield because they would have only needed a fieldgoal to win it instead of a 99 yard touchdown drive. A good team with a good kicker would have won that game. We lost.
Carpenter has regressed this season. He's less accurate. I think we're going to bring in some competition next season to push him. Because right now he just isn't the same Pro Bowl caliber guy we're used to.
