Ross Krautman is a liability. He has no long range capability whatsoever, and he hasn't made a field goal since Minnesota.


My thoughts exactly...

He hasnt been the same since RU last year, its like hes our version of Tom Savage, looks shell shocked.

He has 2 FGs in his career over 42 yards (both in 2010). He is NOT a liability. But he has never had a leg. Going for a 50 yard FG means that Marrone has no clue about Krautman's capabilities. Playing for a FG on 3rd down though was even worse.

he has regressed ... like Nassib ... like Lemon ... see a pattern?

Range is not the issue. 4 for 9 is the issue.

If you don't think he's a liability then you aren't watching.

regression ... the story of the season

He missed a 50 yarder, and he got the ball shoved up his ass by poor OL play.

Half the guys in the NFL can't hit 50 yarders, and all of them would have had the other kick blocked.

Nope low kick

Why in the world was the 50 yard field goal attempted? Krautman has no chance to make that kick, if you are insistent on trying it why not give Norton a shot? This was a terrible decision IMO. Along with throwing twice instead of using the Tank at the end, this was poor knowledge of your personnel.

For reasons unknown, it does seem he's lost the pop & lift when he kicks. Looks like a baseball player swinging with his arms & not fully rotating his hips. Appears zero core strength. Very strange unless injured how poorly he's done compared to his freshman year.

Exactly. His range, like most decent college kickers, is mid 40s. Anything in the high 40s/50 yd range is a crapshoot w/out an exceptional college kicker.
