Woz Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Okay sure. We need to replace the kicker. Who is available right now that would be better than Hopkins? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a great question. However, considering at one point that 1/4 of the league’s kickers came through our team, and many of them came in during the middle of the season, sometimes all the kicker needs is an opportunity. And when you’ve got a guy who should have lost a game, and has missed two XPs in a game……give someone else a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Dan Bailey who used to kick for the Cowboys & Vikings is a free agent, as is Stephen Gostowski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to point out as bad as Hopkins has been, it could be worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Bailey is not the same kicker you think he is First six years (age 23-28) Field Goals TOTAL = 171 for 191 (89.5%) 0-19 = 4 for 4 (100%) 20-29 = 39 for 40 (97.5%) 30-39 = 56 for 58 (96.6%) 40-49 = 48 for 54 (88.9%) 50+ = 24 for 35 (68.6%) XP 250 for 250 (100%) Kickoffs 506, 31769 yards (62.8 ypk) 264 touchbacks (52.2%) Last four years (age 29-32) Field Goals TOTAL = 78 for 99 (78.8%) 0-19 = 1 for 1 (100%) 20-29 = 24 for 26 (92.3%) 30-39 = 27 for 29 (93.1%) 40-49 = 17 for 28 (60.7%) 50+ = 9 for 15 (60%) XP 133 for 146 (91.1%) Kickoffs 295, 18134 yards (62.1 ypk) 186 touchbacks (63.1%) There's a reason he's on the street. Stephen Gostkowski is also in the same boat. His last four years (age 33-36) have shown a decline from what you might expect First eleven seasons (age 22-32, four all star seasons, two All Pros) Field Goals TOTAL = 303 for 348 (87.1%) 0-19 = 3 for 3 (100%) 20-29 = 92 for 96 (95.8%) 30-39 = 106 for 118 (89.9%) 40-49 = 83 for 115 (72.1%) 50+ = 19 for 26 (73.1%) XP 548 for 552 = 99.3% Kickoffs 1025, 65680 yards (64.1 ypk) 412 touchbacks (40.2%) Last four years (age 33-36, no all-star seasons) Field Goals TOTAL = 89 for 106 (84.0%) 0-19 = 0 attempts 20-29 = 32 for 33 (97.0%) 30-39 = 26 for 27 (96.3%) 40-49 = 18 for 29 (62.1%) 50+ = 13 for 17 (76.5%) XP 151 for 160 = 94.4% Kickoffs 304, 19040 yards (62.6 ypk) 162 touchbacks (53.3%) So, he might be better than Bailey, but he's not necessarily the same guy you think he is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want people to go eyes wide open that the possible "solutions" may not be as good as they think or better than what they have right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a crime they didn't even bring in competition during camp. Cause you are dead on, it is tough to find a kicker in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
