    He has a big leg and is young.
    Hopefully he will be more consistent sooner than later.
    FG is 6/7 85.7% this works.
    XP 10/14 71.4% is terrible right now.
    There are some positives to Vizcaino. He just hopefully improves.

      The kid has the most desirable trait in his massively strong leg talent.
      Perhaps we should hire a kicking mechanics coach to specifically get his mechanics/muscle memory in sync for more consistency.

        I’ll say it again, if they decide to move on from Vizcaino then Verity is the #1 guy to call.
        Tom Telesco’s Results in 9 years as Chargers GM:

        - 69-74 record
        - 0 division titles in 9 yrs as GM
        - Worst record among all active GMs with same tenure
        - 6th worst winning percentage among all active GMs overall
        - 2 playoff wins despite elite QB all 9 yrs
        - Team still has the same weaknesses (Oline and run defense) that it had when hired as GM in 2013
        - Consistently puts together horrible depth, expects starters to never miss games

          I've been saying this, too.

            Think I saw Gostkowski on the list. How come no one wants him? Honest question.

              Is this guy some sort of generational talent at kicker that I'm not aware of? Can't we find a kicker with a strong enough leg that has experience? I'm tired of these rookie kickers we keep trying out. He's battle with Bagley was shaky and we just went with the potential.

              How much would the jaguars take for a trade for Lambo?

                Lambo has been God awful. 0/3 on fg attempts this season and then took a personal leave. This is the guy you want to be our kicker?

                  Why did he take a leave? Although he does have a better history than Viz, and if Lambo is really finished than go make a call for proven kicker.

                  All I'm saying is this guy is going to cost us big at some point and it's better to fix the issue now than go into playoffs with a shaky kicker.

                    With 12 missed extra points and 14 missed field goals this weekend I'm not sure there's all these qualified kickers just hanging around

                      pick up the kicker from Balt practice squad. Keep 2 kickers through the bye week. Then pick one. Better than sitting on our hands.

                        How great would it be to sign Verity from the Ravens practice squad then use him to beat the Ravens?

                          Lambo was out for "non-injury/personal" reasons...now he has to compete for his old job:
