On a positive note.... 
Bored at work I've been dipping into stats for the players looking for bright spots. Thought this was interesting (though you may know or have talked about this somewhere else...)
Dusty made a 54 yard FG yesterday. And a 52 yarder last week.
Know how many times that forbath made a 54 yarder? Zero.
How many times did he make a 52 yard kick? Zero again.
In 4 years and 69 attempts Forbaths' best was a 50 yarder, and he did it twice.
Dusty has broken that record twice in 5 games (11 attempts)
Also.... Forbath got touchbacks on 48 of his 176 kickoffs (averaged of 28.85%).
Dusty pounding them through the endzone at a rate of 72% (18 of 25)
I'd never paid much attention to the kicker spot over the past few years as I'd kinda just lulled myself into thinking that while Forbath wasn't setting the world on fire he was competent and the least of our issues. But I decided to have a look and see how Dusty was doing and have to say I was quite pleasantly surprised.
Now Forbath also hit on 87% of his FG attempts. No earth shattering, but not bad. Dusty has only tried 11 and missed that other 52 yarder so he'd currently running at 90.9%, but the sample size is way too small. Be interested to see how he does over the whole season. He kinda made that 54 yarder look easy...
See! It's not all doom and gloom! LOL
