The truth about Garrett Hartley
Posted on 5/2/13 at 12:34 pm
Posted on 5/2/13 at 12:34 pm
Since 2008 when he was an innocent rookie kicker that went 13-13...
In 2009, he finished in 21st ranked place in FG % (Fair to add 5/5 Post Season Performance)
In 2010, he finished 27th ranked place in FG%(3/3 Post season All less than 30 yards)
In 2011, he didn't even kick for us partly injury and part lack of faith
In 2012, he finished 23rd in the NFL in FG%
I know his cumulative career % is 8th all time but since his 2008 seasons, he's been very sub par. Keep in mind like 26 of the top all time 33 kickers by that stat are all active kickers. So take the statistic with a grain of salt. His last 4 years performance puts him on the bottom end of all that list of active guys.

nice to see the stats on how this guys sucks is inconsistent at best, and is not mentally devoted to the game.
2011 and old man made him look bad
Send this to the front office

I've been on this bandwagon a LONG time.

I think we should have kept John Kasay and rode that horse until it quit. He was money for us in 2011.

In 2012, he made 18/22 field goals. His percentage is so low because the Saints score TDs more than they go for FG's.
For comparison, he kicked the second most extra points in the NFL.
I'm all for a change at the kicker position, but who do you replace him with? The Saints have tried to find new kickers and haven't had much stability until Hartley came along.

He is riding that 40 yards NFC championship kick hard. Its taking him farther than Tracy Porters Pick 6 in the superbowl.

I'm over Hartley. Dude needs to GTFO with his headcase arse
shite I'll take a 45 year old Kasay over him

Chad, I see what you're saying, and yes, Garrett Hartley hasn't been totally up to par the past few years. But, no matter what happens, I will always be thankful for that kick he made in the NFC Championship game that sent the Saints to the Super Bowl. To make a game-winning kick under that kind of pressure is a special thing. It's definitely not an easy thing to do on that stage (Gary Anderson hadn't missed a field goal all season in 98 before missing the kick in the NFC Championship game against the Falcons).
So yes, Garrett Hartley statistically is not one of the league's better kickers, but on that one kick alone, he deserves a place in Saints' legend.

Huh, interesting. Shoot....great kickers are a dime a dozen, lets just go pick one up.

Dude is young and already had hip surgery. That's a red flag right there. I hope he has his medical alert device on the chain around his neck so when he falls and can't get up, the EMS people can show up and help him with a field goal.

Is there really a 6 page thread over a place-kicker?
Isn't the rule: If your kicker is reliable, you keep him. If he's not reliable, cut him, & keep cutting until you find a reliable one.
No Saints thread should have 6 pages of passion invested in dime-a-dozen Garrett Hartley.

Whatever, I'm not attached to him at all, but I will never forget what he did for this team in the Super Bowl season, especially the playoffs.
