Robbie Gould

I'm sure his happy to be kicking in Santa Clara vs Chicago. A tad bit better weather in the Fall and Winter.
 
Isn’t he 82 of 85 on FGs since the Bears said bye? Unreal.


He obviously landed on his feet when he left Chicago.....you, not as well.

How ya’ doing, getting around in this weather is a ridiculous challenge. Hopefully you were off today with Pres Day.

Started rehab yet?
 
Good for Robbie.

If he gets some time, maybe he could stop by this spring and work with Jake Pinegar and the other kickers. The 2019 team may need some crucial FGs.

6 - 4 Iowa .... w 2 missed FGs .... It was a cold day at the Beav ...

My God, you people just won't let that go. It's been over 15 years and you act like it kept PSU from winning the National Championship last month.

Sweet jeezus - this makes the Pitt obsession on this board seem like an Algonquin roundtable discussion.
 
Great move by the 49ers.....da’ Bears letting him go three years ago continues to be an embarrassment to their management: STUPID STUPID STUPID.

what ever drove them to do that? he seemed productive as a kicker and a great person in the Chicago community?

IIRC, he sure helped straighten out Ficken.

Late in the 2015 season he missed a couple of kicks that he would normally & historically make, so management silently blamed him for a loss (or maybe two).

When they released him, they did so as quietly as possible.....no thanks for all his great years.

LOL!
 
True. But I still blame him for the 6-4 loss.
When they asked CF why he took a safety he asked the reporter were you watching the same game?I was there and when Aaron Harris went out with a stinger the offense went down the tubes,not to mention the conditions were far from perfect for kicking.And maybe you underestimated Tim Dwight and his punt returning skills he showed off in that game and in the super bowl.That was the fastest cracker ever to grace Beaver Stadium.

Uh, the Tim Dwight punt return game was in 1996. The 6-4 game was 2004. Gould was 0-2 including missing a 25-yarder. He probably never missed a 25-yarder in his career other than that.

not as bad as Craig Fayak vs #1 Miami.Do you think coach F. was referring to Gould or a pedestrian offense lead by Zack Mills and his wealth of first round talent?

Clearly we couldn't score even if we got the ball inside the 10 in that game, so the offense was the main issue. It's not really Gould's fault.

But Robbie Gould is something like 82-85 over the last 3 years and about 88 percent career in 14 seasons. He's missed 1 kick inside 30 yards in his NFL career. I never would have predicted that outcome. He was only about a 65 percent kicker at Penn State including 7-13 as a senior and 0-2 vs. Iowa.
