for now i am going to apply the kareem hunt rule when it comes to our new kicker.
botched the first, he will be game money the rest of the way? :-)
i must say it is weird seeing the fans in the screen shots of the new kicker. the old one always was shown with nothing but grass behind him. :-) [Reply]

No. Shit happens.
He’s perfect from 40-49 yards and only missed FG of season was 50+ yarder.
He’s among the best kickers in the league. Great move stealing him from the Panthers practice squad (they obviously knew he was good. Who keeps a kicker on their practice squad?) [Reply]
I was a little nervous about him coming into this game with how shaky he's looked at times this season. But yesterday, he came out and went 4/4 on XPs and made his only FG try from 39 yards. Meanwhile, Vinatieri went 1-2 on XPs and missed his only FG try.
It wasn't spectacular, but in today's NFL and in those conditions, that's a solid performance.
