 YouTube team keep it clean tell a hater what? Worry about yourself shout out to my guy fly guy GBG This is some of his merch that I got on right now had to order me a hoodie I told him I was gonna order me a hoodie so I had to get one shout out to him He's another youtuber. He does a lot of NBA live stuff. So y'all make sure y'all check him out The link to his YouTube channel is in the description I just had to get my guy shout out because he deserves it now I know a lot of Patriots fans might come on here. He is a Vikings fan So y'all ain't got no beef with him. So go ahead and show him love especially if you like NBA live and NBA 2k anyway Back to New England Patriots There was some Patriots fans freaking out freaking out Freaking out and I completely understand why Because there may be some other fans of other teams who who don't get why some Patriots fans might have been freaking out a little bit Over the Patriots not resigning Stephen gaskowski gaskowski to a contract Because that is their kicker and a lot of other teams who don't have kickers that are so good They may be tripping they they went trip out about it because they'd like it's just a kicker anyway What is it mattering Raven? Well, I'll tell you Teams like the Baltimore Ravens. I mean I'm a Ravens fan and Justin Tucker has literally been the only reason Had we not had a Justin Tucker our record would be a lot worse than what it has been over the years Will be a lot worse than what it has been trust me with Stephen gaskowski he is one of the better kickers in the NFL and Patriots almost lost him man. It's funny that today's story came out that the That the 49ers were interested In Stephen gaskowski and then all now all of a sudden old Patriots added to a two-year deal now all of a sudden they do it 49ers put that pressure on them and 49ers shout out to 49ers because Whether they were calling Patriots bluff or what I love the move for the 49ers because It shows if it was true. It shows like okay Let's see what you all about New England It's them calling New England's bluff because they already franchise tag Robbie gold, but Robbie gold He didn't sign it. He probably when they gave him a pin. He probably kicked it away. I'll get that corny dad joke. Anyway He didn't sign his franchise tender So they could they could have taken it back and then he would automatically become a free agent now I think that would obviously have been contingent on them if they could have contingent on them signings Gustavsky if they could have got him they obviously didn't now since he re-signed with the Patriots But I'm sure when that story came out that a lot of Patriots fans who they were like, oh, no, please say it ain't so because this is your kicker man like People who don't have good kickers really don't appreciate what they still appreciate They should still appreciate it because a good kicker makes you it can put you at ease It can put you at ease for so much now Us at me as a Ravens fan Every time About 99.99% of the time when Justin Tucker lines up for a point after the touchdown I know we don't get many touchdowns. So he don't give me opportunities for that But when he does line up for the point after the touchdown, I Usually I can I can take a sigh of relief I don't I know it's not a given but at the same time I kind of feel like it's a given and I know somebody's gonna be like, whoa, ain't Raven What about that Saints game? Well, he kicked it and he missed he's allowed He was allowed to do that because he's been so perfect for so long So he's allowed to that was the first extra point. He missed in his career And he's been around since Ravens won a Superbowl back in 2012 season That's the first extra point. He missed in his career But anyway, we appreciate our kicker. We appreciate the kicking game Ravens if anybody we definitely appreciate the kicking game So I can appreciate the Patriots Resigning their kicker. I can appreciate that because I know how important it is I know how important it is. Let's look at some of his numbers from last year All right so last year Hmm So he missed five times. He missed five field goals, but three out of five were from beyond 50 So that might have been why Patriots were like a little shaky on resigning They might have been like man, you missed three out of five. You only converted what was that 20%? Oh No, that's just that no, no my fault. That's that's his misses So 60% of his misses came from 50 So they might be like man, your leg might be getting a little shaky my friend It might be getting a little shaky, but anyway He hit 98% of his extra points. Okay, that's good And in the playoffs he was five or six for field goals and ten for ten an extra points So he tightened up on the playoffs I mean, he was pretty used he was pretty good throughout the entire season because I mean you compare the playoffs It's only like four games. It's only like three four games compared to 16 games So the numbers don't really tell the whole story You can't really compare those numbers because it's a you're playing four times as many games in the regular season As you are in the playoffs, but at least in the playoffs. He was he was pretty much on point And I mean he he helped kick the team to the Super Bowl So And then of course over the years he has been like I said, he has been one of the more consistent Field goal kickers. I know there was I think it was two years ago Well, there was there was one I forgot what the game was what he was looking a little shaky I was like, oh, okay. I forgot who they were playing against my apologies that I do not remember but overall he's been one of the more consistent field goal kickers and Patriots also they also keep their their long snapper. What's is it Ryan Allen? I want to say Ryan Allen so bad, but I feel like that's wrong I want to say Ryan Allen. Well, I know what Patriots fans they'll correct me in the comments section So I appreciate it ahead of time letting y'all know. Thank you because I know I'll be getting some of these names wrong I'll be butchering some of the names like even one of my guys Josh Hoffman. He told me the other day He said man, I'll be watching the videos and you say Steve Biscotti's name wrong It's supposed to be bishati and I'll be saying Biscati so Patriots fans don't take no offense if I mess up on a Patriots guy name cuz I the Ravens owner I Called a Ravens owner the wrong name So if me being a Ravens fan if I call him the wrong name, that means ain't nobody safe on any team nobody safe so Don't be offended. But anyway, this is a good move for the Patriots because it allows them to have Consistency because special teams is a it's That's a big part of the game now and you see once and they wanted to make sure and I fell with the rules They wanted to make sure that field goals remained important and field goals got even more important because the NFL felt like you know what? Especially the point after the touchdown they they felt like you know what these these guys they um They they score their touchdowns and they just they go kick the extra point. But no, we are a business We need to generate money. We need to generate income. We need to generate ratings So we want every single play to count that much more So what do they do with the point after the touchdowns they back them up they back them up What are they kicking from like the 25-yard line now, but they back them up and now they're not a give me anymore They're not a give me anymore. They used to be a gimme even for some kickers It was way nothing to give me shout out to the Steelers kicker mr. Boswell. Um, but they They used to be a gimme, but they're not anymore and that's exactly what the NFL wanted They wanted those plays to count that much more and that's exactly what they have been doing ever since they changed up the field Go it's been that much more important and it makes a lot of teams like the Steelers It makes a lot of teams just decide you know what? Because you've seen in plenty of Steelers games and now I'm not picking on the Steelers But they are the best example to use because you've seen it in plenty of Steelers games where they kicker He just keeps missing missing missing why I left short wide right He keeps missing so Steelers will go they'll go drive down the field because they got that super powerful offense as always They'll drive down the field and they'd be like, you know what you see Ben Robertsburg go you and then my my talent to be like Boswell you got you so it's like it They have changed the Steelers game a lot because the Steelers and I love how honest they are They'd be like hey, we don't trust you kicker. So we're just gonna go for two We're not gonna waste your time. We're not gonna waste our time going for that extra point Going for that that that field goal attempt So let's just go for two and that has prompted a lot of teams even to go for a little more on fourth downs So this them moving the the field goal has just created a lot It has changed the game of football a lot now Soon these kickers jobs are gonna get a little tiny bit easier Once they eliminate the kickoffs because that's just gonna be one less thing that they have to do and I I can Can almost guarantee is going to be happening within the next two years I think even this could be the last year with the kickoff I think because I feel like um with the I was about to say with the XFL with the AAF They have no kickoffs and AAF was kind of like NFL's little guinea pig They little test dummy or whatnot and they got to see okay the pace of the game still is pretty good people are still interested in it and Things are still going smoothly. So you know what? Kickoffs who needs them who needs them? So the kickoffs they're gonna be going from the NFL very very very soon very soon, but anyway That's that so shout out to the Stalsky shout out to the Patriots for getting or keeping their guy Re-signing their guy because it's always nice when you got this this homegrown talent from within Especially at that position because it makes the world of a difference team. Keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love y'all And make sure you tell her hate or what?
