[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1079039, member: 17987"] Yeah it's hard to say, admittedly it's all speculation at this point For instance we can't just assume Havrisik would've hit all the same kicks as McManus, or that he would've made McManus' misses as well. Maybe it is all a wash. Sometimes a kick is blocked due to your protection, but sometimes you get a kick blocked because your kicker hits it a little more flat trajectory because that's what he feels he needs to do to get more distance. Vs Cleveland for instance I tend to think that was probably a coverage issue but maybe a bit of both mixed in. This past week, it's not really that reasonable to fault McManus for missing from 64 (or would it really be reasonable to say we make that with Havrisik, necessarily) BUT we also passed up two kicks in the upper 50s...those very well could've been makes for Havrisik; either one of those makes it and it's a whole different ballgame. Overall, I'm still just a bit confused as to the approach here and why with a fully fit Havrisik sitting on the roster they are telling us for weeks now that McManus is healthy but their actions/approach say otherwise. Are they just afraid of insulting the veteran if they tell him he's going to sit a few weeks when he is (by his own recent admission) not 100%? In spite of Havrisik's success for us, do they still think that big-picture a less-than-100% McManus gives us better prospects? Just can't understand it. [/QUOTE]
