Spend for A Kicker

[Kaika]

At least five games a year are Won or Loss due to Field Goals.

Why ,Oh ,Why don't we try and get a first class kicker in this organization???

i totally agree, parcells should have gotten a kicker during offseason, and he didnt, thats his fault,

What are you talking about? Cundiff was perfect, last year, inside the 40.

Cundiff missed a big FG yesterday. He has been pretty good for us last year and last week. I think you might just have to give him a pass for this one game

Who do you think they could buy that would be pro-bowl type? I mean its easy to say Cowboys need this and need that.

Last year Jets lost games because of Kicker, and frankly I thought they should have gone to AFC championship pretty easily. Now they had drafted kicker Mike Nugent, who was money in College, one the best Kickers I saw last few years. But he is totally not living upto his college play.

I mean, Cundiff didn't miss a kick inside 40 last year. And he misses a easy one yesterday. Its one of those thinks you can't explain. At least Cundiff doesn't shy from blame. I still don't know why HOffman was let go. I just don't see where the benifit has been with letting him go.

I think I read Parcells thought Hoffman was a buffer (coddling kickers) between the coach (him) and the kickers. He didnt like that so he let him go. I think Parcells handles the kickers along w/ Dehaven? May be wrong but I think thats how its panned out.

Well, thats why I am questioning the move. Ok, he removed the buffer, but what did it do really? Have kickers been better? So far I don't see that at all.

Sure McBriar has been good, but he was good last year too, as he got better as the year went last year. I just think Parcells didn't make a good decision on that one, but then I dont all the inner workings, so maybe in the long run this will work out for better. I just don't see the immediat benifits.

I dont know. I think Dallas was the only team who employed a full time kicking coach. The other teams dont do this nor have they done this in the past. I can see Parcells approach and rational for getting rid of him. Its not like Steve made kickers great the past few years. We have not had a solid clutch kicker here since Eddie? I cant remember.

Something has to get better, we are 9-2 if we make 2 more field goals

 

[conner01]

who was this great kicker we should have got?

its not about getting a kicker that can make eveyr kick, its about getting one who wont MISS FROM 34 YARDS TO COST US THE BIGGEST GAME OF THE YEAR TO DATE. we have lost 3 games b/c of missed FG...well not b/c of them but we would have won if they were made
