Do you watch the Big Bang Theory?

Have you done any trick plays in college and were they successful?

Apples or Oranges?

What is the longest field goal you've attempted?

1. No, I don't watch much television.

2. I have ran trick plays in my career, most were very successful.

3. Apples specifically Yellow

4. Longest I have made was 62. Longest attempted was a 69 yard free kick that bounced off the crossbar.

1. You're a kicker. What made you choose this over being a punter or offensive lineman>

2. Has anyone ever told you kickers aren't really part of the team? How do you feel?

3. Would you be upset if a team kept going for it on 4th down because you were too terrible to hit a field goal?

4. What's worse: Kick offs out of bounds or missing field goals?

5. Are you happy that people know you only as some trick shot artist and not an actually effective football kicker?

1. I was never big enough to play on the offensive line. I can play punter, but I prefer to play under the pressure you receive as a kicker.

2. I have heard this before, and it never changes my opinion. Kickers are a vital part of any football team. Hundreds of games have been decided by last minute or overtime field goals.

3. I don't envision this ever happening.

4. Any botched kick is a bad thing. I would have to say missing field goals is worse.

5. It doesn't matter what people know me for. The only thing that does matter is that I get the job done.

It's the waning seconds of the championship game, your team has just scored to take a 4 point lead. You have to now kick it to the other team, what's your plan of attack?

Same situation as above, let's say the returner gets past the first wave of kick coverage and it's up to you to save the game. Do you put your head down and try to make the play?

What's your longest field goal made?

Do you prefer kicking on natural turf, artificial, dome, outdoor?

Who has been your favorite placeholder in your entire football career?

1. Kick it deep, hope the defense can stop them.

2. I will always try to make a play. Never stop going for the ball if the whistle hasn't blown.

3. My longest make is 62 yards.

4. I like a natural playing surface. Even though domes make it easier kick, I prefer to play outside.

5. The ones that rarely mess up.

1) Are you better running or passing for your trick plays?

2) Do you think you have an advantage over other Kickers in cold weather since you're from Green Bay?

3) Do you think Brett Favre would have been better or worse off with a warm climate team?

4) Any worries that you may be out of a job if you miss a late kick that results in a playoff loss?

5) If you are required to punt, do you kick it high to drop it within the ten or go for the old coffin corner?

1. Better at running, I can also catch too.

2. I would think so. I spent most winters outside as a child, and the cold has never bothered me. Playing high school football in wisconsin also taught me how to kick in the snow.

3. I don't think playing in warm weather would have changed anything about Favre's career. He was always going to be one of the greats.

4. I have no worries, as long as I can stay consistent I will be wanted somewhere.

5. Try for the old coffin corner.

Did you play soccer when you were younger?

Would you be the kickoff man, or just the FG specialist?

How far do you think you could kick a Chihuahua through the uprights?

What tram would you not like to draft you?
