Cut Mare. It's past due.

Yes, that onsides kick was well timed considering how the Jags were lined up. It was the same thing the falcons pulled on us 2 weeks ago. It's good to see payton remembered that play and kept it in his bag of tricks!

Talk about a shocker. I don't think anyone saw that coming. Did you see the look on Del Rio's face? OMG

Priceless.

From coach's press conference.
Do you still have confidence in Olindo Mare and will you be bringing in any other kickers this week?

"Sure, we have not decided to do any of that, I felt good coming away from that game after he made that kick that we needed. We have gone through the process of bringing in kickers when he was injured and if we had any plans of bringing in anyone we would let you know, but right now our focus is on St. Louis."

Here is what he has amassed as our kicker. This is pathetic.
I say keep him for kickoffs, and get a new FG kicker. I saw the interview when Coach P said he was not happy with the points going into the half and that we should have been ahead by more. I can only assume, he was talking about the missed FG's by Mare.

If the dome started booing everytime Mare goes to kick a FG, one of two things will happen:
1. He starts making them.
2. Coach finally wakes ups and get a new FG Kicker.

Here's the stats.
