Brett Maher over Dan Bailey?

[DeaconMoss]

With all the Dak and Garrett Bashing I don't want this clown to get a pass. First pressure kick as a Cowboy. He hit the upright flags, wide right. Whoever came up with the idea to cut Bailey needs to punched in the face.

 

[CATCH17]

That was a disgusting site to see.

I was way more upset about the clap then the actual miss.

 

[Denim Chicken]

I'm not freaking out over this yet. It's one FG and not exactly a chip shot.

47 yards in the pouring rain.
Dan Bailey is still hurt.
I’m not happy with the cut but not freaking out just yet.

I mentioned earlier, Bailey had missed 5 (you heard that right, 5) FGs in his last 4 games...and his most recent attempt was a miss from 23 yards.
Bailey had a great run, but something was off.
He also tried out for the Jets recently but didn't get an offer.

Btw, that was no chip shot...but a very tough FG attempt. The stroke looked good...just missed by inches from 47 in bad weather, and had enough leg for another 10 yards easily.

Positive reinforcement y'all. This is the 21st century. We support each other when we fail!

I'm shocked Garrett didn't get him a gatorade and sit on the bench and put his arm around him and tell him it would be ok.

LLLOOLLL, bet red pat him on the butt afterwards.

 

[Ultra Warrior]

It's not like Bailey was automatic anymore before he got cut, so 1 miss by his replacement ( on his only attempt at a FG ) shouldn't be looked at like it's the end of the world & this guy is total garbage & we made a mistake of giving Bailey his walking papers. Give the guy a few games where he's kicking FGs ( & based on how we played this weekend, FG's may be the best we can do ) & if he's just completely blowing them, THEN you can get all crazy about it. Oh & the JG clapping after everything BAD happening, does get annoying quick.

Why pay a kicker $3 million when you're rarely in position to kick field goals anyway?

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Next game will be critical for him. A miss and then panic will set in.

It's natural to react that way since Bailey had been such a good kicker, but it's still just one kick and too early to call Maher a failure. I'm not saying this won't turn out bad for the Cowboys, but we need a bigger sample size to say that.

Even the Jets passed on Bailey.

Can we move on or what?

He isn't the same kicker since the Groin injury, why is this so hard to understand?

 

[Bigdog]

That's harsh but so true.

Not really panic. Theoretically the could sign Bailey back. He will be available.

 

[endersdragon]

Dan Bailey sucked last year... Did we all just forget that?

 

[InTheZone]

That was a disgusting site to see.

I was way more upset about the clap then the actual miss.

And yet both actions were 100% expected by the entire fanbase

 

[Batman1980]

I'm not freaking out over this yet. It's one FG and not exactly a chip shot.

What happened to all those 67 yarders he was nailing in practice and that 57 yarder he made in pre-season?

Spin spin spin spin spin

 

[remdak]

Not concerned. An excellent kicker might just cost the Cowboys the chance to pick even higher in the next draft.

 

[Jake]

Of all the concerns I have about the Cowboys ability to score, hitting the upright on a 47 yard FG in the rain is way down the list.
