quote:Wtf are you talking about? Hartley was injured in the preseason in 2011 and we brought in Kasay last minute. In 2012 Hartley proceeded to beat out Kasay to take back the Job.
Kasay who wasn't that good himself replaced Hartley. What does that tell you?
I agree that it would be nice to upgrade the position, but how? Damn near every NFL kicker that lasts is between 75%-85%(and 75% is being generous; many of those guys get cut after 2-3 years if they don't do better). Hartley is 84.5%. Go look at the available kickers career % and compare.
Fact is, unless we luck into the next Morten Andersen Hartley is just as good as anyone else. Problem is everyone is still butt hurt about the ATL game and GB game. Time to get the frick over it.
