I've got to disagree with you there. The team certainly didn't play well. But I can't say that we were out coached. Huh Uh......I won't heat of it. It's heresy I tell you!!!

I would agree with you %100 if this was the only one. He nearly lost the Minnesota game with a shank, he lost the game last night with a 27 yard shank, we lost to Tampa last year due to a missed 37 yarder...

He is at %57.1 for this season! And none of these misses are long field goals. He is missing chip shots.

To the people who want o keep him. How many more do you need?

Safe? Only because I do not call the shots.

Do you like having a burn in your gut for EVERY field goal? I do not. I had the same feeling with Gramattica.

Kicking on first down wtf.Pound the ball maybe you break one for a touchdown.

i posted on the chat board to maybe bring in a kicker and most said no.

Granted, this was a poorly played game. Brees made some bad plays. Henderson dropped two and one big one. Defense couldn't stop Gonzales. After all that the team still forces overtime and the defense and offense do what's needed and sets up a gimme field goal for the win and Hartley chokes. I know it's a team loss, but kickers ,like they say, are a different breed, isolated, loners on the sideline (insert other cliches' here) which is why you don't cut Qb's, recievers, and certain other key players for bad performances , but that doesn't apply to the kicker and I hope he's cut as I type this.

Because after all is said and done this loss is on him.

WOW ... Amazing how fast he has gone from "HERO to ZERO ..."

1. Hartley won it last week.
2. He got us to OT.

The thing is, kicking is not a definite thing and we've been relying on kicking the past 3 weeks. Sooner or later, you'll miss something.

No. The loss is on the team. The Saints couldn't run the ball, Brees threw 2 picks and one of the was really stupid. Ivory still has fumbling problems and the D couldn't stop anything. This loss was a team effort.
