Titans sign Stephen Gostkowski

Rob Bironas is rolling around in his grave on account of the awful kicking the last two seasons.

 

I have a feeling that they don’t cut Gostkowski. I think they’ll give him a little more rope based on his history of being great.

He pulled it our at the end, so I’m thinking that they’ll give him a couple weeks to try and get things right.

But I’m not sure he still has any gas in the tank after his hip surgery. He was booting the kickoffs ok, but his accuracy of the FG attempts were all over the place. Maybe he can dial it back in with a little time?

 

It is time to have some kickers on speed dial. I fear he is done.

 

I'm torn I'd like to cut his azz but don't want a revolving door at K. I think honestly we should get Gost and that kid from Iowa we got both really for Sunday and carry two K come game time. Unless there is a bonfide kicker out the that can come in a knock'em down that doesn't have a history of being trash.

 

We damn near lost this game because of him.

We likely are able able to beat Jax next week with no kicker, but I wouldn't like our odds against Minnesota without one. Gotta get it solved soon.

 

This post didn't age well. I hope that changes. LOL

 

so let’s see, at $2.75MM, with about 50 expected FG attempts per season,
Mr. Gostkowski earned $55,000 for EACH missed FG. The missed PAT i think he kicked that one for free.

Is this going to be 2019 all over again when management hangs on to a guy post-injury instead if admitting the problem? That by all rights should have cost the Titans their season last year but for the NFL’s best red zone TD offense in the last 40 years.

Maybe they think we’ll do the miraculous again, and so dont really need
a FG kicker.
