Nice move. Maybe Deuce could be a running consultant?

Great move by the Saints IMO. I was at the Falcons game a couple weeks back and as soon as Hartley missed his XP, he got screamed at by Payton, then Carney came over and talked to him for several minutes. Really seemed to calm Hartley down.

The Saints aren't doing this to be "class" guys; they're doing it because they have a young, untested kicker heading into the playoffs. It also prevents Carney from showing up on another team down the stretch. It's also possible that this was Carney's idea--he knew his days were numbered at best and he really seems to like the organization, so perhaps he made them a sweetheart offer. In either case, it looks like a win for all concerned.

Now it looks like an even better move. Thanks for the info.
