I don’t like the feeling of a kicker walking out there and feeling like someone punched me in the gut.

I certainly don’t get Morton Anderson vibes from Lutz. But he’s better than a lot of kickers in the league and I feel pretty confident when he walks out there.

I do miss the days of Anderson walking out and I could literally get up and go get a beer or take a leak because I knew that was pretty much automatic. Lol.

Who knows? Grupe might allow you a few more relaxed nature breaks. But I wouldn't count on it.
