Am I the only one who remembers 2000? The Redskins went out and spent $143 billion dollars (ok, maybe a little less) but didn't get a kicker as insurance for Brett Conway and it cost them 3 games (vs. the Cardinals, Giants and Eagles) and Norval his job? That team was probably Super Bowl quality (except for their dimestore coach) but they couldn't find a reliable kicker during the season. Ironically, they chose NOT to sign David Akers, who went to Philly and the rest, as they say, is history.
