Neil Rackers

Shayne Graham

There is some pretty good talent out there at the end of the year. Graham, Reed, Rackers, and Janikowski..any of those I would consider an upgrade. We need to address it no doubt..

[quote=BDBohnzie;636057]You can search the boards for the amount of times I've backed Suisham. I can't do it anymore.

Here's to hoping Vinatieri plays this weekend, so the Colts cut Stover and the Skins can pick him up.[/quote]

You can search the board before the season started when I said CUT SHUISHAM!

Stover would be an incredible pickup.

Heck, Carney was benched for some reason by the Saints, let's make an offer for him.

Sure they're old, but kickers can last forever, look at Gary Anderson/Morton Anderson and even Jeff Feagles...they all showed up to play when they were old enough to have kids as teammates.

I'll take Graham off that list, he could stick around for a long time.

I doubt many of those kickers will be moving, top kickers are worth keeping in this league.

Didn't we learn the lesson about drafting the kicking game last year? :D

Anyone know how Jerry Jones' wasted draft pick on a kicker/punter has turned out? I haven't heard about the guy. All of the Dallas fans were defending the pick, saying their rookie kicker was a great tackler... :Flush:

I guess Carney has been struggling. He hasn't been cut yet, but I could see them releasing Carney if Hartley does well again this weekend. Very strange, yet here we are debating on whether we should keep a floundering kicker, when a 12-0 team have no problems making a switch whatsoever, with their season on the line...

[quote=Longtimefan;635744]The Redskins defense gave up ten points after Suisham missed that kick. I really can't diss the guy because he has beeen a reliable kicker the majority of the season. He won the Rams game by himself, and was instrumental in winning the Bucks game. I doubt there are any better kickers walking the street at this point in the season. Suisham was not the reason we lost today, blame for this loss spreads throughout the team.[/quote]

Hey Longtimefan, he also cost us the Dallas game by missing 2 FG's. Suisham has cost us in the past and now again, I think it's time for a change. They should go look for a college kicker in the draft or FA. These team hasn't had a reliable kicker since Chip Llomiller.

Suisham single-handedly won us the Rams game

John Hall was a very good kicker before his chronic leg injuries.

Without a kicker what are we going to do when we get in the red zone.

He was no better than Suisham, he missed a lot of big FG's too.

Obviously you don't remember him; he was a lot better than Suisham.

A floundering kicker who at the end of the day is still 18 of 21 on the season.

Carney is 45 years old, has no range, and doesn't kick off, so of course they are looking at cutting him.
