Unfortunately, I don't think there is anyone to replace him unless you literally just want anyone. The Patriots still don't have a kicker, for example. I'd be more inclined to just go for it on fourth down for all fourth downs on the other side of the 50.

I know of a kicker that we can use.

I know theres no kicker on the street that better or getting rid of coaches with 3 to go..

BUT THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO AT LEAST SHOW THE TEAM AS A GM AND HC THAT YOU ARE TRYING,

CUT MAHER AND RELEASE OQUINN..you have 10 days to adjust..i know its too little too late but this would at least shake things up..

heck im also for letting Marinelli retire/ fire him if he doesnt agree and let KR go down with the ship..

there are ways to make statements without completely having a dumpster fire..

it might not make a difference but I want something to hang a hat on before the rams game. status quo isnt the answer here..

if for anything else the FANS need something ..im deflated..

Put your head on a pillow if you want, but your butt needs to be in the unemployment line.

I'm not going to defend his kicking ability but I will say that people shouldn't overthink his words. He's got a microphone in his face being asked a tough question when he's likely already been beating himself up inside for weeks....some guys just don't respond well to that pressure. Point is, not everyone with a mic in their face is going to say the right thing.

That was my thought last night. No more FG attempts, just go for it. I'm sure the expected point value would be higher, but I guess JG's not into analytics these days...:confused:

Seriously, this quote is worse than all his missed kicks combined. That couldn't be less than a winner's mentality.

But really? Should we expect anything more from a kicker who can't even kick from both hashmarks?

There's no way they can keep Maher now. If I was a teammate, I would not want him around at all.

What about his kickoff out of bounds? F’in scrub shouldn’t be on the team next week
That killed so much momentum, if not, all of it.

Next week?

Heck, If I'm the coach and after that kick, I am walking up to him, grabbing his helmet,, pads and having security escort him out of the building. He doesn't get on the plane back to Dallas. Nothing , notta, he's done right there.

Yea but most of his teammates have no room to talk. They are all playing awful. Maher just should never had been signed to begin with. Garrett was fascinated by his long distant kicks. That's what got him on the team and that's why he's still there.

I am sorry but if a player has that attitude than he need to be cut. If he has the mentality that he feels good about his technique and kicks than he is not going to change and he will miss. Let’s see how he sleeps when he doesn’t have a job. It is a cruel especially around this time of the year but this is a result oriented business that he choose and he is not getting it done.
