Bucs roundtable: Time for another kicking panic?

Related Topics: Roberto Aguayo

Five days after the beleaguered Roberto Aguayo got cut after missing a PAT and a field goal, new Bucs kicker Nick Folk had a PAT blocked and missed a field goal.

Soooooooooo, is there reason to be concerned about the Bucs' kicker situation? We asked the Tampa Bay Times' Bucs coverage team.

For this season, no. While coach Dirk Koetter didn't look happy after Nick Folk missed a 47-yard field goal Thursday, no kicker is automatic from that range. As I wrote here, Folk has proven to be a solid (but not great) kicker over his 10-year career.
