He missed the ball the first three times. Pro kicker, my ass.

u/nellyruth 57m ago

Not even double clutching

u/Free-Pound-6139 15m ago

Bad kickers miss it 5 times.

I remember when Younghoe Koo was just entering the NFL, he had clips like these going around too. He was a good-okay kicker if I recall, but ended up not really having an extraordinary career.

The thing I remember most about him is when he was signing autographs at training camp I think, and when a fan offered him a zyn pouch he popped it in his mouth with no hesitation.

Ain't that the truth

u/Kmon87 3h ago

I mean he put it down the middle so does it matter?

-40

u/GuyNamedLindsey 3h ago

Yeah.

u/NotUniqueAtAIl 3h ago

Id argue that it's easier to hit the middle of a smaller target. He hit the middle of your huge set so arguably more impressive

-4

u/Strange-Cloud9287 1h ago

Nah, it basically eliminates the pressure of the goal posts, so all he has to do is hit the target he's picturing in his head.

u/randomuser1029 1h ago

Sounds like someone that has never been involved in sports before

•

u/Strange-Cloud9287 49m ago

Why you mad?😂 Why is he looking down at the ball? He's using the reference saved in his head from looking at the posts. It's a crucial part of any ballgame played with the feet.

How do you not know this? You've probably never kicked a ball before other than punt in your backyard.

•

u/jordanmindyou 31m ago

So you’re saying he got a no look headshot, and that makes him bad?

•

u/randomuser1029 11m ago

You can't be too mature if you thought a statement means someone is mad. Still pretty sure you've never done any real sports

•

u/Strange-Cloud9287 0m ago

It's passive aggressive. And I'm still pretty sure you've never kicked a ball before, or gotten any exercise in the last 10 years for that matter.

u/gavinbear 2h ago

And what is this kicker supposed to do about that? It went down the middle.

u/8462368 3h ago

Down the middle

u/Sullypants1 3h ago

Look like high-school posts

•

u/TrollsWhenBored 50m ago

Those are high school posts. Much wider

Highschool is like 24ft wide and College/NFL is 18 or something like that

u/MistaBeanz 3h ago

Portably doubles as a soccer net

u/utzbansai 3h ago

u/CitizenCue 1h ago

u/attgig 1h ago

Younghoe Koo went Instagram famous after he didn't get drafted and that led him to playing in the....afl? Whatever that league is that folded a year in.

•

u/i8noodles 53m ago

•

u/tmcall90 50m ago

LA Rams outta pick him up

•

u/Electrical-Bee3128 41m ago

Rama could use him

•

u/poopy_kid_spotter 33m ago

I don't understand American football, but I'm a lifelong football (soccer) fan. In football, there are 'freestylers' who can do a ton of cool looking tricks with a ball, but none of those skills tend to translate well into actual play.

Can someone who understands American football confirm if this is the same case? Or if those skills are actually useful in the real sport.

•

u/ISmellLikeBlackTea 7m ago

Why don't they hire strikers from Football to play in American Football? The whole thing of football is being excellent at shooting at a goal, and this one is both unprotected and extremely wide.

•

u/HurriShane00 4m ago

Pro kicker? He missed the ball 3 times and got lucky. And put a shirt on!! 😁

•

u/daxx549 2m ago

Rams should sign him for a tryout.

u/ShutYourButt420 1h ago

AI skills maybe. Seriously are your brains so fucked you believe this is real?

1

u/TheSaxGandalf 1h ago

You're brain so fucked that someone who only has to kick a ball for a living, doesn't learn how to do this, with showing the one that is successful?

imagine Tiger Woods be able to do crazy stuff on the golf course?

u/RozyBarbie 3h ago

This belongs in the circus.

Try scoring a free kick at the World Cup Finals, with billions watching. Then we talk.

12

u/idekbjlmpau 2h ago

That's a small group of people considering nobody has made a free kick in the World Cup Finals and penalty kicks to end the game have only happened three times. 

But sure, try to make contrived comparisons so you feel better about yourself
