Savage Beatings Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Not bad. Thank goodness they signed someone half-way decent to Kick for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Itals Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Was hoping the Cowboys would get him and let Vandy and Vinatieri go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big John Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 That 86.1% rate is deceiving as he was declining last year, missing clutch late-game FG's, then blaming his holder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilwoman Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Not bad. Thank goodness they signed someone half-way decent to Kick for them. 1364440[/snapback] Surprising...I mean Longwell seemed to have a pretty bad year I thought...at least in the beginning of the season...

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I was hoping for Vinatieri or Vanderjagt. Again, the Vikings seem to be going the cheap route on the signings so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Vikes are not playing around. I would be excited if I was a Viking fan. I know they have not made any serious signings yet but they are filling minor holes right now. plus they will be getting back Birk this year 2 won't they?

Or made 20 of 27. Edinger missed 10 of 35. Similar percentage low 70 percentages. He was a FA kicker and the Packers should be able to get another fairly easily. His long kickoffs haven't been there for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
