This guy is the new Eddie Murray. Get him inside 45 or so and it is automatic. 7 game winning FG's already in his career!
 
Pretty damn fortunate to have him.

It wasn't so long ago that it took a year off my life expectancy every time we trotted out our FG unit.

Those Billy Cundiff, Shaun Suisham days were full of good times, lol!!
 
With the day Moorman was having I was scared to see any kicker in the field.

Don't forget Volk, the bad year, or Matt Bryant. Ironically, all those guys are still employed in the league
 
I was celebrating when they drafted him. Kickers are so under appreciated. They are the highest scorers in the league and decide alot of games. Its mandatory to have a kicker and QB of hi quality to win.

I used to cringe watching extra points.

There was seriously a game where I walked out of the room for a FG attempt. I literally just walked away for a few minutes and listened because I didn't want to see another miss.

I hope everyone remembers the love we were giving folk and how that ended

You're right. We should probably refuse to acknowledge his play because another player started strong and failed at one time or another.
 
Now when contract time comes GM Jerry needs to recognize the importance of Bailey as a reliable kicker. Except for Vanderjagt, he has never believed in spending on kickers. It backfired with Vanderjagt but that doesn't mean Jerry should continue to take the attitude that you can find a kicker anywhere for cheap. you guys have mentioned the names: Cortez, Suisham, Seder, Buehler. Disasters all. Say what you want but in a league of parity a good kicker matters.
 
It's Dan 'Beetle' Bailey. 😁
 
Thumbs up for the Steely Dan nickname. That is a great band... Not sure many picked up on that.

During this last kick, I actually covered my eyes because I did not want to see the kick. But, I could not do that, so at the last moment I opened my eyes. So, I watched the kick...

I felt so happy for the team...they needed that.
