What did we offer. Did he pull a gregory and get the same offer and take it because of the language. Maybe if he misses EP then it costs him money..

Does Greg know he will be kicking outdoors in NJ?

I don't think you realize how important your comment is. Zuerlein has a lot of ball action with his kicking style. He just does.

At times the wind will help his action, but other times it won't. He doesn't kick what I would call a wind boring ball that stays true. His kicks are always on the move with action.

Think like a golfer. He has a tendency to hook or slice, but he isn't a straight down the middle kind of guy.

FYI, big legged kickers have a tendency to kick with a lot of action or side spin on the ball with the exception of Justin Tucker.

Ex. Zuerlein's kick to put the Rams in the SuperBowl went inside, the curled outside only to finish coming back inside through the uprights. The dude has a lot of action on his swing.

I used have season tix for the Giants. It's a terrible stadium for kickers and QBs. Eli was always better on the road than at home. Ironically, it may end up helping the leg if he keeps his stroke intact.

He's getting 2.7M from the Jets. I would imagine the Cowboys offered the same or less. Why would he choose the Cowboys?

Why would anyone choose the Jets over any other franchise in the NFL?

Regardless, I'm glad he did.

They offered him less money, KNOWING he would turn it down. Now the media is trying to spin the notion that Dallas bumbled it, because stories of incompetence in the Cowboys FO draws click$.

I know an Eagle fan who constantly puts snarky Dallas memes on Facebook. It’s like the 600 lb. man teasing the 300 lb. man for being fat!
