He was rock solid today including the game winner. Maybe this will give him some confidence for the rest of the year.
Time to give Props to Olindo

Agreed. He's taken it on the chin for so long here since signing that contract; I hope he continues to do wqell and ends up top-5 in the league, he deserves it.

he's one of the league's best, and the best on kickoffs

He leads the league in touchbacks every year because he has the most powerful leg in the league.kastofsna120 said:

What I love about Olindo...is his kickoffs....and how they land in the endzone and beyond sometimes....just plays a huge importance in the field position game....a very important part of the game for a team...like ours.

Thank you Jimmy Johnson. :D
I think he is still one of the better kickers in the league. He was in a funk briefly last year, but wasn't all of the team?

I like Olindo. One year I was at the autograph fence after a training camp practice. There were about twenty people jockeying for position and Olindo looks up and says "Hey, it's ok, I'll get to everyone, a couple of years ago I was on your side of the fence." This endeared me to him forever.
Yes he was injured, but he was also inaccurate when he was not injured. He missed some easy ones. With that said, it doesn't matter. That was last year, this is this year. He went 2/2 yesterday including the game winner and kept knocking the ball out of the endzone on kickoffs.
Great story. Man what a good guy. That story elevated him in my book. Many athletes forget they were once just people. Thanks Olindo!cnc66 said:
