Yes, he won't be kicking 58 yard field goals in cleveland - but it'd be nice to have at least some chance on 45+ field goals.

Anyway, my money's on detroit at this point.

I'd say we know something about that, and screw the vacation part of it, and screw the beer. Guys like us get full before we get drunk.

The only reason not to sign him is because someone else did. He''s better, and younger than Cundiff, not much to think about here as far as apples to apples.

Kickers are a headache in general... unless your name is Phil Dawson, he's legend. Bring him home, I beg you Farmer. We are better now and a Kicker away from contention, with Phil we are 3-0.

He's from mayfield hts.. So he'd be another local guy to add to Hoyer and Whitner

May have been born there, but he went to HS down here in SW Florida, Estero HS. The only reason not to sign him is because someone else did. He''s better, and younger than Cundiff, not much to think about here as far as apples to apples.

I know the atmosphere helped Prater but his 50+ is nearly triple that of Cundiff. Hell looking at Cundiff's stats right now how has this dude been a kicker for so long?

but Cundiff has never missed inside the 30...

There are no free lunches...

Nah... with Phil it was frozen swamps...

Longest kicks aided by the Denver atmosphere. Career 81.6% success on FG, aided by 96.2% (25/26) last year.

Seems similar to Billy.
