anti clutch soft as pudding and expensive. not to mention old and losing his kickoff specialist prowess. get me a vet on the cheap Im sick of Gostkowski. I'm not the only one. Pats fans are split. People either revere him as a life long Patriot or are similar to me.

I’ll trade you whoever the hell our kicker is this week right this second.

He always complains about Ghost on the Pats forum. Ghost can be frustrating and truth be told he gives us heart attack, but is there really an upgrade?

Yeah, I’m not sure who that’d be.

Truth be told, I get where Dole is coming from. Ghost isn't nearly as automatic as he used to be.

We dont have a kicker or punter to trade.

It's not about an upgrade. It's about paying a mediocre kicker mediocre money rather than paying a now mediocre kicker elite and absolutely unnecessary money that the team hardly can afford.

The 49ers can't quit Jimmie Ward, and thats kind of frustrating. He's an okay NFL player, but he doesn't play great in any one particular position. He's also constantly hurt, with 4 of his 5 seasons ending up on IR with a broken bone. Just can't count on him to be on the field at all. Yet the staff loves him. We eschewed all of those very solid free agent free safeties on the market this year to bring him back. Very frustrating.

LaMarcus Joyner.

So when the Rams drafted him, Fisher had him as our NCB - he did okay there, but most Rams fans - and by most I mean, everyone I've ever interacted with on a message board or in real life - wanted him moved to FS. We thought he would be really good there.

McVay and Philips come in and one of the first things they do is move him to FS - he proceeds to have a nearly elite season. So naturally, his contract is up. We franchise him over Sammy Watkins (which is fine because I didn't really want Watkins either).

He played okay this year - most of his issues seemed to occur when Peters was also in the picture, so I'm inclined to think it was bad Peters while Talib was out that was mostly to blame. Fine.

And then the Ted Ginn catch happened in the NFCCG that could (or should) have lost us the game. It was the single worst safety play I've ever seen. Drew Brees lofted the ball basically right to Joyner, who lets the Ted Ginn jump right in front of him for the catch, and Joyner was looking at the ball the entire time. If it was an actual decent WR I'd probably be more forgiving of that play - but it was Ted Ginn..

Anyway, I still think he's a good safety and in the market the Raiders are probably getting a nice deal with him overall.....except rumor has it Gruden is going to have him play NCB, which he's not great at.
