Cairo is on Monday Night Football NOW!

The announcers were talking about him being from Brazil, having rookie growing pains, etc. But they failed to mention that he went to Tulane, thus far. Nor did they talk about the Groza award or his 26 consecutive FG streak.

Way to go, Cairo!

Just like college kickers, rookies in the NFL need a few games to get a good feel. We should give DiRocco the benefit of the doubt, and support him.

GO CAIRO!

Cairo Santos, KC Chiefs kicker and long time One On One Kicking trainee, doing whatever it took Sunday to bring Percy Harvin down. Little too much soccer in Brazil as a youngster. Haha. #oneononekicking #kc #kcchiefs #nfl #daytonaelite #kicking #kickingcamp #ncaa #tulane #greenwavefootball #conferenceusa #collegefootball #football @oneononekicking

He made a soccer type tackle! Got flagged for tripping, but didn't let Percy Harvin score!

Peyton what the fuck are you waiting for? After another missed field goal, it is time to bring in some competition for Lutz. I still haven’t forgiven him for the blocked PATs returned for scores last year. Bring him to the city he loves!

Great news: Cairo is about to, or just signed on with the Rams, possibly the best team in the NFC!

2nd team he's been with this season. I hope he sticks with the Bucs, and can finish his career without having to move again! He's a great and reliable kicker, that, like all others, needs the snap and hold to be consistent. I felt horrible when his attempt to break the NCAA record for most consecutive FG's made was stopped a few kicks short the same week his father died tragically. The bounced snap in that game at Syracuse was unforgivable. I think he was within 3 successful FG's of breaking the record.
