Good to see. Glad we dumped him for a better kicker.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I'm actually glad for him. He was always a classy guy.

Ouch, more salt on the wounds

 

[Runwildboys]

Anyone who didn't know he was gonna get it back together was just looking for yet another player to complain about.

Look, what fun would the game be if you knew you were going to get points from all your kicks. Much more interesting when you dont know if the 35 yarder is going to go through or not.

perfect timing

 

[Reverend Conehead]

This team was betting that Bailey wouldn't get it back together and we would be better off with someone else. Lost that bet. Hey, we could sign that guy who missed 4 field goals and got cut. He's available.

It would be cool if you could pick where you kick extra points and that spot is then where your team will kick off from. Think about it

It was the right thing to do at the time. Same as when Folk got the yips. Plus Bailey was making way too much.

But we like our bums

I agree with this, but I think we are at the same point with Maher now.

 

[Lutonio]

Kickers are often streaky. When he started with the Vikings, it was looking like a good thing that Dallas cut Dan the Man.

He might ultimately be better that Maher, but the team has bigger problems than Maher right now.

 

[Carson]

Good for Dan.

Happy he didn’t go full Vanderjagt

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Can I bring up my “Bret Maher Over/Under” thread from a few weeks ago?

 

[Virginia-Dave]

Just wait until he kicks a 50 yarder to beat us in a few weeks. That will, of course, come after Maher misses a potential go-ahead kick at some point late in the game. God I hope I'm wrong.
