The Dallas Cowboys are sticking with Nick Folk

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,General Cowboys Talk,Needs to Step Up by admin on Friday 18 December 2009 at 7:53 pm

Despite his struggles the Cowboys are going to stick with Nick Folk as the starting kicker.  Folk has played in all 13 games for the Cowboys this season and he has connected on 17 of 26 field goals (65.4%) and all 33 of his extra points good for 84 points.  The Cowboys don’t really want to give up on Folk because he was outstanding in his first two years in the league.  In Folk’s first two seasons with the Cowboys he made 46 of 53 field goals (87%) and he also made all 95 of his extra points good for 233 points.  The Cowboys hope that standing by Folk doesn’t cost them a game that they can’t afford to lose.

UPDATE:  The Cowboys have cut Nick Folk after he missed a chip shot that would have sealed the win last Saturday.

    Folk sucks.!!! He missed a 10 yard field goal last night. Hell I can make a 10 yard field. They need to fire his butt. He keeps getting worse as the years go by. He was good when he first got signed on, but now he sucks. My 13 year old son can kick a 10 yard field goal. Wish I could get paid that kind money to not do my job. The kind of money he makes he should never miss anything.

    You are right Larry. I think Folk will have a hard time finding another job in the NFL.
