Placeholder frozen in place as Joe Nedney and the kickoff team for the SF 49ers practice during training camp, just before their first 2007 pre-season game.
For anyone surprised by the image, it's true that you have holders on kickoffs if it's windy, but off a tee. Nedney is a field goal kicker. And in practice, they do - what they do. Offensive guys play D, and vis-versa. And field goal kickers help in practicing punt coverage.
Thanks, I only wish the 'niners' had more going for them on offense than Nedney, here, and Andy Lee the punter. One wonders if the problem doesn't start with a 'don't lose' coaching style of the son of Dick Nolan?
being a niner fan and growing up 3 blocks from kezar as a kid, this is a awsome shot, most would not understand the FG kicker having the ball held, but they have never visited candlestick park ie monster. I went to the last spring training a couple of years back but didnt get any nice action shots like this.. very well done..
Though my knowledge of American Football is inversely proportional to Einstein's knowledge of 'Theory of Relativity', but still I really like this image Joe. Great study of movement and stillness, all the action around that still player. I like the composition also. Regards Subhrajit
