Read an article about Mac, and two passages stood out:
“MacGinnis is the University of Kentucky’s all-time leading scorer. While playing for UK, MacGinnis kicked multiple game-winners including an upset over Heisman winner Lamar Jackson’s #11 ranked Louisville, as well as a 51 yarder right down the middle against Mississippi State.... Beyond college, his XFL career proved him as the most accurate kicker in the league, converting on all 10 of his field goals attempts with the Renegades....In his kicking debut for the AFL’s Memphis Express, he went 4/4 and kicked the game-winner––giving the Express a victory over the San Diego Fleet.”
When given the opportunity, MacGinnis has been successful.
About his mental prep:
“ In a 2018 interview, MacGinnis says of beating Mississippi State, “In my head, the only thing I was thinking about was, ‘I’m going to make this kick.’ Nothing else crossed my mind. No fear, no doubt. No fear or anxiety. I put so much into it with the training and the preparation, and that’s where you get your confidence. You know you can do it from your training and preparation.”

Who knows if Mac will be the guy, but it won’t be hard to be better than the Hobbit, Samwise

Rams kicker Austin MacGinnis shouldn’t be overlooked
Expect the Ram's special teams’ unit to look a little different in 2020. Rams long time coach John Fassel and kicker Greg Zuerlein both departed for the Dall

I just want someone to prove to be reliable enough to be around a while. Revolving kicker is hard on my ulcersRead an article about Mac, and two passages stood out:

If Gay is the pick, I think it will be because of superior leg strength for long FG’s and for kickoffs.
If Mac is the pick, I think it will be for accuracy and mental toughness.
Not sure what the deadline is for making roster moves today, but I definitely could see the Rams playing head games on this.
If it’s Gay, I’ll be rooting for him 100%

I think Gay is the pick because he has to be on the 53 man roster, while Macginnis doesnt. I'd think that if Mac gave them what they were looking for, they wouldnt have claimed Gay in the first place. They know we he has to offer, and basically have bypassed him 3 times now

Exactly what I thought. Be pretty shitty of them to pick him up then cut him for a guy they already have on the practice squad.

Matt "the leg" Gay doesn't seem to have the same meaning. To many pornos when I was younger I guess

I was looking up the word “Gay” (don’t ask why, lol)... But...
THIS CAUGHT MY EYE.... What? Huh? Where in the hell does this data come from? 1800’s... and mentions?
And.... what’s with all that variation in 1808?
