Bruce Arians Reveals Ryan Succop’s Range

September 9th, 2020

The Bucs have a new kicker (which is nothing new).

So how far can he kick?

If you’re just re-joining the Buccaneers’ kicking circus, veteran Ryan Succop booted Matt Gay from the roster. Last year’s fifth-round pick remains unemployed. And Succop has a range of 52 yards now on his outdoor field goals, per Arians’ news conference today.

Gay had a greater range but struggled on short kicks, which drove Arians a little crazy.

Of course, a kicker’s range is always about how he’s kicking roughly 30 to 60 minutes before kickoff.

Hopefully, the air conditioning won’t be swirling at the Superdome on Sunday.

    the standard has become that kickers have to be 95% accurate from inside the 40, 75% accurate from between the 40 and 50 yards, and then hit close to 50% for kicks between 50 and 55 yards! Sounds like Succop may have issue going beyond 52 yards so he better be real accurate under 50!

    Let’s be sure he can be counted on to make extra points. Have any stats on that Joe?

    Why don’t we just hire a hall of fame kicker…like lure one out of retirment, then the OLD BILLY GOAT in my 300 voice would have “EVERYTHING”!!

    I get the feeling we’ll be kicking a lot more extra points and a lot fewer desperation 60’s

    As of 2 days ago the Patriots had exactly ZERO kickers on their active roster. BA goes out and gets a proven kicker and Lost Dog is whining about it.

    I absolutely love how BA Trolls Lost Dog and Little Bo Peep who can’t find his sheep lost in the !!!!!!!!!!! And he doesn’t know or give a rats ass about these two loser ‘fans’ to boot.

    Bahahahah…..

    In BA I Trust!

    booming balls from 50+ yards out is a neat trick, but IMO a kicker’s main job is to make sure any trip inside the 30 is a guaranteed scoring drive whether a TD is scored or not
