Missed a extra point, and kicked his first one into the back of a lineman, but he came through later, seemed to settle down. He's got a decent leg and 'ought to be alright 'till Akers comes back.
I definatly don't want to go into the playoffs depending on his leg though.
He didnt miss an XP. Stat-wise he did, but he didnt even touch it.
The missed PAT was a bad snap. Bartrum and Detmer farged it up.
Sad but I think he's made more FGs than Akers has this season :-\

Forgot that, that has to be the first time I can remember Bartrum screwing up a snap.
It doesn't even count as a missed kick when the kicker can't attempt it.

He has indeed.
France came up huge. Windy day at KC for your first game ever and he nailed a couple FG's. good stuff.
Plus he got a fist pump from Reid. Don't see Big Red get animated too often.
France did a nice job, no question. It was the side change that screwed things up for Bartrum/Detmer.

After a shakey start I couldn't agree more...
lmao at Reids fist pump! I was like wow, Reids getting fired up.
He did do a good job. Def doesn't have the power Akers has, but came through when we needed him.
i was hoping for them to run the statue of liberty play on a fake FG
I gotta give this guy credit. For your first NFL game, in Arrowhead, with noise louder than a jet engine, this guy got it together. I can't blame him for have a little case of the jitters early on. I was telling Phanatic that I expected him to be cut this week after his miserable kick-off, missed FG, and line-drive PAT, but he was strong after that.
He'll do.
