*ASFC Kicker Performances (Weeks 1-4) Part 2/2 - xenosthelegend - 07-08-2021 Ok, there was a longer delay than expected, but here we go. San Jose Sabercats Matthew McDairmid Week 1: 3/3 Extra points, 0/0 Field goals Week 2: 2/2 Extra points, 4/5 Field goals (1/1 20-29 yards, 1/1 30-39 yards, 0/1 40-49 yards, 2/2 50+ yards) Week 3: 1/1 Extra points, 3/4 Field goals (2/2 40-49 yards, 1/2 50+ yards) Week 4: 3/3 Extra points, 3/3 Field goals (1/1 20-29 yards, 2/2 30-39 yards) Total: 9/9 Extra points, 10/12 Field goals (2/2 20-29 yards, 3/3 30-39 yards, 2/3 40-49 yards, 3/4 50+ yards Halfway through the first quarter of week 1, San Jose scored their first points of the season. A 14 yard TD pass from Jack to Crossley, scored 6 points for San Jose. Their kicker McDairmid walked on to the field to attempt an extra point. He lined up for the kick, and his kick was right down the middle, scoring one point for San Jose. Later in the first quarter, San Jose scored another TD, this time a rushing TD from 5 yards out. San Jose sent McDairmid on to the field to attempt another extra point. His second extra point attempt of the game was good. After a scoring drought of more than 30 minutes, San Jose finally scored another TD. McDairmid's third, and final extra point attempt of the game was good. Late in the first quarter of week 2, San Jose let McDairmid do something he had not done in week 1, attempt a field goal. But this was not just any field goal attempt, this one was from 53 yards out. McDairmid walked on to the field, and kicked the ball with such intensity that it nearly broke the net behind the uprights. His kick was good, and scored three points for San Jose. Early in the second quarter, San Jose scored their first TD of week 2, a 33 yard completion from Jack to Vermillion. McDairmid's extra point attempt was good. Halfway through the third quarter, San Jose RB Lackson punched the ball in from 1 yard out to score their second TD of the game. McDairmid's second extra point attempt of the game was good. Late in the third quarter, San Jose let McDairmid attempt another long distance field goal, this time a 50 yard attempt. The ball managed to stay in between the uprights, as his kick was once again good, scoring three more points for San Jose. Halfway through the fourth quarter San Jose found themselves in the red zone, but facing 4th down from the Philadelphia 10 yard line. McDairmid lined up for a 27 yard field goal attempt. His kick was right down the middle, and added three more points to San Jose's total. Late in the fourth quarter San Jose once again found themselves stalling out in the red zone, this time from the Philadelphia 15 yard line. McDairmid lined up for a 32 yard field goal attempt. History repeated itself as his kick was once again good, scoring three more points for San Jose. Just one minute later, and San Jose had the ball back, and they looked to extend their lead. McDairmid lined up for a 46 yard field goal attempt. The ball was in the air, but it drifted to the left, and missed. He was no longer perfect on the season, but was still doing good. After an eventful first few minutes of the game where neither team was able to score, halfway through the first quarter of week 3, one team finally had an opportunity to score points. McDairmid walked on to the field to confront his demons from last week, a 46 yard field goal attempt. This time his kick was right down the middle, and scored three points for San Jose. Late in the first quarter, San Jose found themselves in New York territory, but unable to convert on 3rd and 10. This forced a field goal attempt, this time from 44 yard out. McDairmid lined up his shot, and his kick was good, scoring three points for San Jose. With 4 seconds left in the second quarter, San Jose found themselves 36 yards away from the end zone. Instead of going for a last minute hail mary pass, they decided to go for a field goal attempt. McDairmid walked on to the field for a 53 yard field goal attempt. Remaining perfect on attempts from 50+ yards out, his kick was good, and scored three more points for San Jose. Early in the third quarter McDairmid lined up for a 51 yard field goal attempt, and unlike last time, my remained perfect statement was not a red herring, as he missed this attempt wide right, breaking his perfect from 50+ yards out streak this season. That missed field goal attempt was the start of a trend in the game where neither kicker could make a field goal for the rest of the game. Fortunately for McDairmid, he did not attempt another field goal for the rest of the game. Instead he did attempt an extra point after San Jose scored one with less than one minute left in the fourth quarter. McDairmid's extra point attempt was good. Late in the first quarter of week 4, San Jose scored their first points off of a 6 yard TD pass from Jack to Lewandowski. McDairmid lined up for the extra point attempt, and his kick was good, scoring another point for San Jose. Late in the second quarter, San Jose drove down to the New Orleans 11 yard line. After being unable to convert on 3rd and inches, San Jose decided to take the points, and sent McDairmid on to the field to attempt a 28 yard field goal. His kick was right down the middle, and scored three points for San Jose. With less than a minute left in the second quarter, San Jose RB Vermillion ran through the New Orleans defense 44 yards for a TD. McDairmid's extra point attempt was good, adding another point to San Jose's total. Late in the third quarter, San Jose once again found themselves unable to convert on third and short in the red zone. This time McDairmid attempted a 30 yard field goal. His kick was right down the middle, and scored three more points for San Jose. Early in the fourth quarter, San Jose found themselves stopped at the New Orleans 13 yard line again. Just like a few minutes ago, McDairmid attempted a 30 yard field goal. His kick was again right down the middle, and he scored another three points for San Jose. Halfway through the fourth quarter, San Jose scored their third TD of the game. McDairmid's third extra point attempt of week 4, and final extra point attempt of the first four weeks, was good. New Orleans Second Line Taipan Pete Week 1: 0/0 Extra points, 0/0 Field goals Week 2: 4/4 Extra points, 3/4 Field goals (1/1 <20 yards, 1/1 20-29 yards, 1/2 50+ yards) Week 3: 3/3 Extra points, 1/1 Field goals (1/1 40-49 yards) Week 4: 3/3 Extra points, 2/2 Field goals (1/1 <20 yards, 1/1 40-49 yards) Total: 10/10 Extra points, 6/7 Field goals (2/2 <20 yards, 1/1 20-29 yards, 2/2 40-49 yards, 1/2 50+ yards) Week 1 was an interesting one for our protagonist Pete here as he was on the bench for the entire game. He was forced to sit and watch as Pseudo QB played the first week in both the kicker and punter role, he would have to wait before getting his chance to play. His chance to play came in week 2, as he was named the starting kicker and punter before the game. After a wild first quarter that saw penalties, sacks, and turnovers by both teams, New Orleans finally scored points at the start of the second quarter. Slothlisberger found Bodenhamer for a 35 yard TD pass. Pete's first extra point attempt in the ISFL was good. Halfway through the second quarter, Slothlisberger found Barker for a 2 yard TD pass. Pete's second extra point attempt of the game was good, and built confidence in the rookie kicker. Early in the third quarter New Orleans scored their third passing TD, Pete's third extra point attempt of the game was good. With his confidence sky high, he eagerly lined up for a 50 yard field goal attempt late in the third quarter. His kick sailed to the right, and missed the uprights by 3 inches. His kick was no good. Just one minute later, Pete lined up for an even longer kick, a 57 yard field goal attempt. Perhaps the team had faith in him, maybe he begged the head coach to let him try this, however it happened does not matter. What matters is what happened next. His kick had perfect accuracy, and enough distance to get through the uprights, and above the crossbar to score three points for New Orleans. Another minute later, and New Orleans picked off New York QB Howitzer and returned it for a TD, scoring 6 points for New Orleans. Pete's fourth extra point attempt of the game was good. Later in the fourth quarter New Orleans drove all the way down to the New York 1 yard line. Pete lined up for the chip shot 18 yard field goal attempt. His kick was right down the middle, and scored three more points for New Orleans. With 19 seconds left in the game, Pete lined up for a 23 yard field goal attempt for a chance at sending the game to overtime. His kick was good, scored three points for New Orleans, and sent the game to overtime where his team would eventually lose after an 8 minute drive by New York. After a first quarter that saw New Orleans go down by 14, they tried to cut in to that lead a bit in the second quarter. Pete lined up for a 45 yard field goal attempt. His kick was good, and gave New Orleans three points, their first points of week 3. Late in the second quarter, New Orleans scored a TD, a 2 yard pass from Slothlisberger to Barker added 6 points to the New Orleans total, and a successful extra point attempt from Pete added another point. Late in the third quarter New Orleans RB Rotchburns ran the ball in from 6 yards out for another TD. Pete's second extra point attempt of the game was good. After an Austin punt late in the fourth quarter, Slothlisberger connected with Spencer for an 80 yard TD pass, putting New Orleans ahead by 3 points with not much time left on the clock. A successful extra point attempt by Pete made it a 4 point lead, now requiring a TD by Austin to win the game. The 4 point lead would hold as Austin did manage to drive within field goal range, but was unable to score a TD. In week 4 New Orleans scored the fastest they have with Pete in the starting lineup, a 10 play drive to start the game resulted in a 1 yard TD pass from Slothlisberger to Bodenhamer, scoring 6 points for New Orleans. Pete walked on to the field for the extra point attempt. His kick was right down the middle, and scored one point for New Orleans. Early in the second quarter New Orleans found themselves in San Jose territory, but facing 4th and 6 from the San Jose 23 yard line. Deciding to take the points, they sent out their kicker Pete to attempt a 40 yard field goal. His kick was right down the middle again, scoring three points for New Orleans. Late in the third quarter New Orleans found themselves on the San Jose 1 yard line, but unable to get over the line. Deciding to take the points again, their kicker Pete got the ball through the uprights on an 18 yard, chip shot field goal. After San Jose scored three consecutive times, the New Orleans defense had enough and took matter into their own hands. McCringleberry picked off San Jose QB Jack, and returned the ball 30 yards for a TD. Pete's extra point attempt was good, and scored another point for New Orleans. Late in the fourth quarter New Orleans scored another TD. Pete's final extra point attempt of the game was good, and he remained perfect on extra point attempts through the first four weeks of his ISFL career.
