I knew I remebered that name Ficken all summer but just couldn't put my finger on it, and I finally remembered tonight. In 2012 he lost a game for Penn State against UVA 17-16 after missing 4 field goals and an XP. I'm currently a Ficken fan, but an interesting piece of history.
UGh never liked Bullock since he missed that easy FG when we needed him to get into the playoffs ...

No one could prepare for this many Kicking problems scattered over a 3 year period.
The chances of having this many kickers has to be astronomical regardless of circumstances.

Blankenship in the 7th should have been a no brainer

9 K over 36 games (32 reg season, 4 post season)
Might even be missing some guys given a shot during camps but all 9 of these guys were given the kicking job at one time over that stretch.
I can’t think this has ever happened over the history of the NFL in such a short window.

you’d think! Considering the kicking woes at the time - seemed too good of a fit.
First three letters of this guys last name concern me.
maybe he caught the sniffles
I wondered the same, so much for the kicker issue being solved
true... yet this is exactly the job Robinson signed up for & failed spectacularly at
watching succup kick that game winner thrusday night (highlites for me) sorta POd me a tad
as good as Robinson has been K has been a disaster
It is down right sad this position still sucks for us, i know ficken got hurt but damn this is sad
Don't fret. We're going to sign 3 more rental FG kickers by week 8 that will go 3 for 17 combined.
