... the kicker didnt.

My goodness. Its like the AROD thing is going on in Dallas. Its becoming such an issue now(more than ever) and its in his head.

As for the team. Well they could have let it get away from them in 2nd half and they didnt.

I am not looking past Tampa... but they are a team we should beat and we will. Dec 3 will be for a W-L record tie and then we win more games than Giants and win the division.

I'd be more worried if he was shanking the kicks. Both of them went almost perfectly straight.

Yeah, his kicks were slightly to the right, and both kicks were on the right hash mark. That's not a huge adjustement to make, he just needs to do it.

I agree with Adam.
He is hitting the ball solid.
I don't understand though why he isn't making a slight adjustment so it doesn't slip to the right.

He definitely kicks better from the left hash.

I think we'd be remiss to cut him. Who are we going to replace him with? Cundiff? Cortez?

I'm for riding this through. The guy's an arrogant jerk who is not performing on par with his paycheck right now.

But we're now at the point where regardless of who we have kicking, we're going to be saying "Uh oh" before he lines up. I'd rather go with Vanderjagt, hoping he can work through this, then bring in some spare we know won't kick above the 75% mark.

I hear ya Dale... it would somewhat "kneejerk" to cut him.... but for the love of football man... how many times has hit the goal post? Is there a record for that in one season? LOL

When you say "but now we are at the point where regardless of who is kicking" - I never left that point even when he was signed... so for me its not NOW we are at the point... I never left

I mean seriously.... WE WILL make playoffs and he is a liability. Already. Indy cut and for the very reasons we saw today. They werent even pressure kicks

Yeah I know... pretty sad when you have to look at a PAT all the way through.
