Kicking

Rob isn’t Rob anymore he’s been getting abused on the regular … maybe they should have got right tackle instead of TE

I haven't seen that really.
He has had issues with smaller speed rushers for most of his career. I think this is just because of his massive size. But, he is still a good RT and a powerful run blocker at times.

He was that one kick away from being STs player of the week. It would have been his 5th FG and and all those knuckle ball KOs were dominating.

BTW, I saw a breakdown somewhere, I forget which talking head (getting old) showed this, but it showed that every FG, the Eagles were getting closer to blocking a kick, which only motivated them to really keep pressuring that weak side and game planning it until they got both those kicks. You could say, had they not settled for so many FGs earlier, maybe they never get to that point of perfecting that play. Of course an extra TD here or there and it wouldn't have come down to it.

This video mostly breaks down the 2nd blocked FG at the 10 minute mark. Looks like both Havenstein and Limmer got completely destroyed. Limmer's guy with the block. Also... Karty's kick looked like it was heading left, though we'll never know for sure.

I'd be interested to see a breakdown of the first missed FG. The hold looked poor.

A lot of possible culprits in the 2 missed FG's! I've seen blame headed toward Karty, Ward, Dotson, Evans, Hav, Davis, Limmer, coaches, and refs. I wonder who legitimately was responsible?

On the second one, to me it looked like Limmer and Havs both got blown up.

3 missed FG's in the first 3 games, gotta fix that.
