re: Has Carney been cut yet?
you can't just say he's ONLY missed 3 and not mention the distance he's missed from

re: Has Carney been cut yet?
3 isn't really a small amount in 7 games, although one could be blamed on the snap but I was watching him in warmups and he was struggling mightly to hit from over 40 yards.

He's 28th in the NFL in Field Goal %

Has made only 3/5 from 30-39 yards which is not good at all for an NFL kicker..He's 27th in this category

Time to go

re: Has Carney been cut yet?
yes he did but everyone blames the hold.. however i feel brunell got it down enough to just get it thru for an XP.. but whatever.. everyone seems to be defending carney a ton.. but he doesn't have much range and now his accuracy is getting worse..

that was Brunell's fault, but still the missed fg's are an issue!

I say we wait for the STL game when it shouldnt matter who our kicker is and activate Hartley just so he can get some reps.

I dont want him kicking in his first game of the season against a good team where the game could be close.

Didn't Morestead say he wanted to kick Field Goals? Anyone seen him kick before?

re: Has Carney been cut yet?

I think that Carney has played his way out of being our kicker. At the very least Carney should be deactivated and Hartley should be given a chance.

He will be before Carney goes anywhere. I do not trust Hartley as far as I can throw him. He has not kicked anything in forever. Payton knows Carney has a SB ring and was clutch in the playoffs for the Giants. He said there is room for both on the roster. We are 7-0 with him so I think we are doing fine. Also, I do not know who it is on the left end of the PAT's blocking, but he is terrible. That ATL player almost blocked 3 of em and that guy never got out and touched him. If a kicker feels rushed he's going to push the ball, as what happened in the couple Carney has missed.

How many kicks has Hartley missed in an NFL regular season game?

buddy, there are 9 guys blocking their 9, 10, or 11 on an extra point. Atlanta went 10 against our 9, there is going to be a guy running free. That happens all the time on extra points. Carney might just be a little slower getting to the ball. No reason Hartley shouldn't get a shot.

He should. We just need to keep Carney on the roster
