Congrats to Aldrick Rosas

nyjuggernaut2 : 12/2/2018 4:56 pm
Broke Giants record for longest made FG in team history when he buried that 57 yarder. He's been the team's MVP this season.
Ummmmm.

Saquon's been the team's MVP...but Rosas has been lights out this year. He's been fantastic.
He broke Bert Rechichar’s record of 56 yards.

Oh wait. Not. Old timers will smile at that one.
He’s been great  
Peter from NH (formerly CT) : 12/2/2018 4:58 pm : link
But barkley is easily the MVP. The play he made is the only reason Rosss could make the kick.
Probably a good thing

Rosas wasn't cut when Dan Bailey was released like half this site was adamant needed to happen.

Rosas has been money  
mfsd : 12/2/2018 5:00 pm : link
Was there any doubt he’d drill that OT kick?

I was one of them. I would have loved Baily instead. I was wrong
And the ONLY one he missed  
Stan in LA : 12/2/2018 5:02 pm : link
Was a 52 yarder with a bum leg that was straight down the middle, but fell 1 yard short.

It's the Giants. Of course there was.
I always think of

the Pontiac Bandit's song when he kicks.
Rosas, Rosas, Rosas - ( New Window )
Aside from Barkley, one of the few positives of how bad we were  
Mad Mike : 12/2/2018 5:08 pm : link
last season. If we'd been competitive, we probably would have made a change when he struggled.
He deserves the Pro Bowl  
NYG27 : 12/2/2018 5:24 pm : link
Although with the Saints Wil Lutz kicking 23 of 24 FGs and about 20+ more extra points, he'd get the nod this year.

Still Rosas has been amazing with making 29 of 30 this year.
Rosas has been one of the few bright spots  
EricJ : 12/2/2018 5:27 pm : link
... and hopefully he can be our kicker for a long time.
Wait till we put a an offensive team around Barkley.  
TMS : 12/2/2018 5:29 pm : link
Think, Barry Sanders, and as early as next year. DG And Shurmur know what they have here, and will build around it MO

And Bailey blew another chip shot in the Vikes game.
Has had a helleuva season

Unlike the beginning of the season  
eli4life : 12/2/2018 5:32 pm : link
I have zero worries when he goes to kick
Yeah, and MOST of BBI wanted to dump this pre-season

Was going to say the same thing. It’s why I can’t take this board seriously most of the time. If a player isn’t perfect from day 1 a large contingency on this board can’t wait until the player isn’t in blue anymore.
He should be an All-Pro this year  
Rong5611 : 12/2/2018 6:02 pm : link
Arguably the best kicker in the league.
Rosas has simply done an excellent job developing his game  
Jimmy Googs : 12/2/2018 6:03 pm : link
After years of having weak-legged Kickers that could not even attempt a 50+ yarder very often, I would trot this guy out there without any questions.

BTW - his kicks just look solid going thru the uprights, end over end...

Rosas  
mrvax : 12/2/2018 6:08 pm : link
has been outstanding. Glad the Giants were patient with him.
Nobody's reasonable anymore  
Ten Ton Hammer : 12/2/2018 7:18 pm : link
Despite all the history you need to show people kickers can improve significantly from Y1 to Y2.
Yes, but...  
trueblueinpw : 12/2/2018 7:22 pm : link
He’s had a nice season but kickers need to make money kicks and I still don’t think he’s made any of those. Today was a big kick to win but is today also the biggest kick he’s ever made? Just saying, pressure is the thing that makes or breaks NFL kickers.

He can't do anything except makes the kicks that are in front of him.

Of course and I’m not shitting on the guy. Just saying, if you’re gonna be a big time kicker in the NFL you gotta make big time kicks. And Rosas hasn’t made any big time kicks yet. Hopefully he’ll get a chance to kick some more game winners with the Giants.
The only kick he missed happened because he  
USAF NYG Fan : 12/2/2018 8:26 pm : link
was playing with a hamstring issue and fell short on one that was over 50. If memory serves me right that is.

You mean the same guy that kicks in a dome?!
He's been great  
Marty866b : 12/2/2018 9:09 pm : link
I was so wrong about this guy. His kicks look much different then last season. I wonder who worked with him? Couldn't have been Quinn.

He hasn't really had any big-time kicks to make because the Giants haven't been competitive for the playoffs since he's been here (only 2 years)
