Brad St. louis is no more. He is replaced by harris , a 25 year old who came from the texans.
Hate to lose brad but , cost the team 11 pts so far.

He was good for years but this year he is not. With him there it could cost the team a game or two. Hopefully this new guy will be able to do the job.

The best way for anyone to get the the NFL is to be able to long snap very well. It does not matter what division you played in college or even if you played in college. NFL teams like to have someone that will get the ball there without any trouble.

This is a move the Bengals would not have made in years past so early in the season. Maybe they are going to do things right. Taking what some of the better organizations have done over the last few years.

I feel bad for St.Louis...he has had a nice run here in Cincy but it had to be done...It was not getting any better.It was all in his head kind of like the end of Steve Sax career.I wish him the best and hopefully are new long snapper is a keeper.

had to do this, how many of these games wouldn't have been as scary if he could just get the ball down

All I can say is, it's about time. It was like watching a high school team, hoping they could get the extra point after each touchdown. I am sure St Louis will work out whatever is in his head and get another job, but he was a liability.
I remember when Dale Murphy first came up to play baseball with the Braves he was a catcher. He made a couple of bad throw to second base and it got in his head. He ended up throwing a ball almost to the center fielder one game, then threw one into the mound and finally jumped up and couldn't even release the ball. They sent him back down and turned him into an outfielder because he could hit so well and brought him back up the next year. If your a baseball card collector you will find him on the rookie catchers in 1977, and rookie outfielders in 1978. And that is the rest of the story.
