Pat McAfee......( aka... Rocket Man.....) (4 Ratings)


One of the most important rookies playing in the Super Bowl is Pat McAfee. Not to take away the amazing play of our rookies this year in all aspects of the game with the defense, offense, and special teams and what they will contribute in the Super Bowl. Pat McAfee will be setting up the saint’s field position every time he kicks the ball, and when he kicks the ball out of the end zone they will be starting at the 20 yard line. The games that the Saints have played so far you’ve seen squib kicks keeping it away from Reggie Bush and the potential of a good return even a run back for a TD. You don’t see much talk about how important the kickers/punters are but with this game Pat McAfee is going to be a game breaker at his position. Pat McAfee has a leg like a rocket launcher and so I will dub Him as the “Rocket Man”. Pat McAfee this your time to shine and we know you will.

"You don’t see much talk about how important the kickers/punters are" ........ hello? excuse me but I'm gonna have to command a bit more respect here. I have always known that the kickers/punters are a vital part of the team, glad y'all are finally starting to see the light.

Pat and Matt are both huge pieces of the elaborate puzzle that the front office has put together and I am a loud and proud supporter of both.  GO KICKIN TEAM!!!!!

I saw him for the first time at training camp, and said, "Wow, this kid looks like the real deal."  And he has certainly proven to be so.

McAfee has been an awsome addition this year for sure. I saw him in last years senior bowl kicking competition, which he won, and became a big fan of his.He seems so down to earth and fun to be around. So glad the Colts selected him. He hasnt let anybody down for sure. GO COLTS!!

LOL, "Rocket Man"! That's sweet, I can dig it. Letting go of Hunter Smith was a question for me, but you have to trust Mr. Polian. Even though I go to training camp every year, I'm not at every practice and he is.

I love McAfee's punting game and he will be a HUGE factor in this game....GO BLUE!!!!!!!!

I have seen several interviews with him and he is a BIG KID at heart....he is out there having fun.....and I think that is what makes him so good at what he does.  In fact, I have heard several Colts team members say that this year has been fun....and when you are having fun you are being great.....

Credit BP for seeing what Mike Scifres did to us in the playoffs last year and going out and getting someone to do the same thing. I've been saying it all year, even to the ESPN guys, that McAfee has been an MVP of ours this year. Pat is a stud.

With our defense much improved, it will be hard for Drew Brees to go 80 yards everytime (if at all).  If McAfee is on his game, then Peyton may get some short fields to work with.  Getting the Saints offense to go a long way for "field goals" and the Colts offense a short field to get TD's is the ultimate in what McAfee can do for us.

Can you imagine McAfee's excitement at being a rookie in the Super Bowl ... that ought to add an extra 5 yards to his kicks.  GO COLTS!!!
