Observations from the Saints' Win against the Redskins

Team win despite the ebb and flow , you could say yoyo like play all day. Kicker continues to give us fits. Lutz will be back eventually , but why not save $ over the two guys we signed who are subpar by signing Verity? Latt and Gillikin were the truth today. And Winston noodle arm showed us a few.

Enjoy the bye week!
We get MT back next game.

He stepped into some big shoes, and he's wearing them. I wish they'd let him try field goals, coming out of high school he was highly rated at punting and kicking. How much worse could he be? He's obviously got a big leg.

The only reason this game was close was due to the one sided penalties.

Trautman had a good game (to give credit where due)

Verity would cost more. I have tried to explain that. And he's never even attempted a regular season kick? Why pay him three weeks salary per practice squad acquisition rules for a week?

Do you think he didn't read that the first, second, or TWENTY-SEVENTH time you've tried to argue with him?

Freaking stop harassing people.

How is that harassment? I think you need to chill out a bit there. Easy, saintfan.

But if he had comprehended it the first ten times I had pointed it out, wouldn't you think it would have become clear enough that I wouldn't have to keep pointing out the obvious?

So to be clear, you're saying that signing Verity right after he got cut after preseason and before the Saints signed the two veteran kickers would have cost much much more than the scenario we're currently undergoing. What is a rookie UDFA salary? What is the min salary of veteran NFL kickers? One can arguably say one of these kickers may have cost one game from the two we lost. I think we know which game that is.

You are assuming this nobody would be worth signing. What has he ever done? Why are you so enamored with some guy that has never kicked a single ball in regular season play? Verity, Verity, Verity.
