Sav Rocca

[jargan83]

I've been led to believe that texas is nfl mad, so if a kid went around saying that i dont think it would matter where they played in the team

[JediKnight]

For that kind of money, you could pay people to be impressed with your job as a holder.

Plus.....think about it......you only spend 60sec a game on the pitch.......that leaves you more time to get to know the CHEERLEADERS!!!!!

[jargan83]

Damn, i'm in the wrong line of work. Nfl games go for hours (playing time is an hour??) that leaves plenty of time to chat up the cheerleaders

[LarryNJ]

I'm just getting some tips on form coach. They're my practice partners.

[Burgs]

What are they saying?
"You need to follow through the strike more..."

[jargan83]

"we need to move to perth and cheerlead for the western force"???

The debate will probably be settled tonight when the Eagles take on the Steelers in Pittsburgh. Go Sav!



Sav Rocca or Dirk Johnson?

That is the question special-teams coach Rory Segrest is debating. Do the Eagles go with the veteran Johnson or the rookie Australian?

There is no answer yet.

"It's a great situation to be in right now," Segrest said yesterday. "We've got two punters who are very capable of punting in the NFL. Dirk, coming off of last season with Sav coming in, has tremendously improved his game. Sav is continuing to improve as well."

In two preseason games, Rocca has averaged 49.0 yards on seven punts, with a net average of 39.0. He boomed a 65-yarder and has had one touchback.

Now in his fourth season with the Eagles, Johnson has punted six times for an average of 42.0 yards (37.3 net), with one touchback. Johnson, who signed a six-year contract extension in 2006, was bothered by a sports hernia last season.

Segrest thinks the competition from Rocca has helped make Johnson better.

"Competition brings out the best in everybody," Segrest said. "I think Dirk saw Sav in the off-season and the spring, and he's worked very hard in the off-season to improve his game. . . . He wasn't at 100 percent last year. He's come back. He's healthier now. He's been working hard, a little bit because of the competition, but also he's healthier."
