Mare singlehandedly (footedly?) lost us that game yesterday. Cut him.

Did you even watch the game?

I'm pretty sure the Saints failing to score a touchdown on that 10-minute drive.......along with Devery Henderson tipping a ball right to a DB.......along with Jamaal Brown's penalty on the Stecker touchdown (which led to having to settle for 3 points).......along with Payton's dumbass decision to try a 53 yard FG with 2 AND A HALF MINUTES LEFT by an injured kicker.....had just as much to do with the loss as Mare.

If he does get cut, it'll be because his overall performance thru the first 4 games hasn't been stellar, not because he whiffed on a FG that he never should have been lined up for anyway.

Thank you BlackHoleSlam for that much needed dose of reality.

Valid points. However, too many times this season our offense has at least put us in position to get three points and we walk away empy-handed. That can kill the mentality of a team. He needs to go!!!

Oh I agree, that's why I included the part to say "IF he got cut, it'd be because his overall performance hasn't been stellar". And it hasn't. Hell, I didn't think Vanderjagt was kicking all that bad in Dallas last year when he got cut, but apparently Parcells didnt feel he was as reliable as he should be.....so in came Gramatica. But for LordofEntropy to put the loss solely on Mare.....well that's just stupid.

Oh, c'mon. My statement was not stupid. Mr. Mare missed a TWENTY YARD FIELD goal in that game. He kicked it so low an ELBOW managed to block it. A twenty yarder, Hole. Twenty yarder. How much did we lose by?

We both know the answer - 3 points.

So yes, you can say that Olindo Mare single handedly (footedly) lost us that game.

Jamaal Brown lined up incorrectly, calling back a Stecker touchdown. We had to settle for a Field Goal. That's 4 points....OMG 4 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111

How many points did we lose by?

"We both know the answer, 3 points".

So yeah, it was stupid to place ALL of the blame on Mare. But for what it's worth, I was really hoping they'd sign Vanderjagt this week because I, like many others, simply am not at ease when Mare lines up for Fields Goals as I was when Carney did so.
