Correct me if I'm wrong. The fans booed Mare when he came out for his second kick. He had already missed one, right?

Booing comes from frustration. You're talking about a fan base that had become used to Carney being automatic for so many years.

Frankly if Mare doesn't want to be booed, then he needs to do his job. AFAIC the only kick he gets a pass on this year is the 54 yarder for Carolina near the end of the game. He was hurt. It was long. We really needed him to make it, but the odds were against him. But all the rest of them are problematic.

I have heard that kicking is 30% confidence.

Maybe if all kickers go through this - he'll snapp out of it soon and he'll have had his turn at a slump.

We need every weapon we can get right now.

We need a kicker we can trust. How would you feel right now if the Saints needed a 48 yarder with no time left to win the game?

Not a real good feeling right now to me.

[QUOTE=JOESAM2002;145794]I just had a great idea. We could all stand up and do a silent boo. You know, stand up and just open your mouth, and instead of booing, pour some beer down your throat.

At seven dollars a beer and several misses, that could be expensive and mind numbing.

Yeah, but after a few, you wouldn't be thinking about Mare, it'd be the third Saintsation on the left! LOL

booing beofre the kick is attempted makes no sense. when he misses though feel free
