Please B_Dub Please...Don't call him A-Rod. I want to throw up everytime someone call him that.

to blame this loss on one player is insane. We need all new DB's, DT's, OL and a few wr's. This team is in dire need of SP or rebuilding

I've been a Shankley detractor since Atlanta a couple years back. Inexcusable. I even predicted it in a thread before the season, that he would cost us a game with a missed kick.

Thomas screwed HIM, then HE screwed US. 7 yards. Heck, one of his XP's was left. I commented on LiVE, "Shades of Shank". And it happened.

When the pressure is on, he shanks LEFT.

And he was no hero in Minn. or the Super Bowl. Porter was.

Give me Kasay any day.

PEOPLE. WAKE UP!
WHAT HAS HARLEY DONE FOR THE SAINTS LATELY?

2 years has been TOOOOOO long. I've made up my mind about Hartley after thinking about it tonight.

They need to cut Hartley and bring back Kasey. If anything just shake it up. Sean Payton did it and that's why we had Kasey to start with.

Everyone else on this thread blaming defense, Thomas, whether Hartley made it the D couldn't stop 'em, he was on our Superbowl team....
YOU'RE TOTALLY MISSING THE POINT!

This thread really isn't about "I BLAME HARTLEY FOR THE LOSS," it's about Harley throwing MULTIPLE GAMES and cutting ties with him NOW before he has a chance to screw up any games THIS SEASON!

Dependable kickers are out there. Most of 32 teams have one. We have enough problems right now without KICKER DRAMA DELIMMA.

As for Hartley and his Superbowl with us!! COME ON, he got a ring. As fans we gave him our hearts, but PLEASE, this is a business. You'll see Hartley at the Superbowl reunion game in 8 years!

I'm serious, this is business, not sappy sympathy that makes you pick your stupid cousin in a pickup game because he's "kin". COME ON PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!!

WHAT HAS HARTLEY DONE FOR YOU LATELY???
That's the measure of a kicker in the NFL. I'm sorry, end of story, get your feelings hurt that's your fault. NFL teams DO NOT require the same kicker on staff year after year, they just need one who can boot it through the uprights!!!!

I too think he's gonna "miss it" when he even goes up for extra-points.
NEXT KICKER PLEASE!!!!!

Lets draft a kicker with our top 5 pick! Lmao

Budsdrinker · 10-01-2012, 08:23 AM

Are we cutting Sproles too for droping the 3rd and 4 pass from Brees that would have kept the drive alive instead of forcing the long FG?
Come on guys, 48 yard FG isn't a gimme and there is more than enough blame to go around for the loss. I guess the Giants are cutting their kicker for missing last night and Pats kicker for missing 2 of them yesterday. How about we catch the dam ball and only let the kicker kick extra points.

No sir... Watch the hold again. Thomas was double teamed and the guy he held still almost blocked the FG...

If Thomas does not hold, its blocked, and possibly run for 6.

Yeah but the reason Thomas had to hold was because he didn't slide his feet for protection. He kept his feet in place like he was in a hole. If he slides to his left he picks up the rush and the kick is good. Bad fundamentals.

No. Watch the play again... He was double teamed. He had one guy in this left hand and one guy in his right hand.. If he slides either way the other guy is in Hartley's face.

His choice was to pick one and let the other run free or try and hold both.

You drop balls in a game, then in practice you are thrown balls to yo drop!
Time for the coaches to man up and kick some azz!
