I think that this is mostly John Fassel's call. I think he tends to stick with his guys. Look for this guy to stay unless he totally butchers his chance.

This is a no pressure game try-out for Fick this week. The Rams will bring a polished kicker for the playoff game if he fails.

If there was a polished kicker available, don’t you think they would have signed him already?

I think Carpenter may be the only NFL tested kicker on the list and there is a reason he is not on a roster this year.

Ficken ball travels well. It's the same every kick. His routine is consistant. He seems to have a strong enough leg to make a few challenging kicks too.

Mentally, it remains to be seen how much ice runs through his veins.
