I bet Hartley will be kicking next week.

When Morton Anderson was young, he went through a slump like this.
The kid is young.

I like Hartley He wasn't the only won who lost that game. The D played a big part as well.

Three turnovers will give a game away every time. Need we ask Adrian Peterson about this fact.

He wasn't the only one who lost this game, very true! But his job is to kick field goals.

I wish people would stop bailing Hartley out. Sure, we didnt play well the entire game. But we pulled it together in OT and put our idiot kicker on the 11 yard line for a chipshot and he missed it. THAT IS THE KICKERS FAULT!

If we don't BLOCK for the running backs; STOP the other teams running backs and TE from having career days, Our kicker will be the least of our problems!! He should have made the kick, However, we got our A$$ kicked in all phases except for special teams!

however dosnt cover an easy kick, made 99 out of 100 times, hartley lost it.
Payton doesnt kick on 1st down because its not a sure thing.

Regardless of the overall cause of the loss, let's face the FACTS:

The organization obviously has had enough of Hartley. I don't think they would put this info out unless they were dead serious. Personally I believe they want him replaced with the best leg for hire.

With his performance overall this year, can you blame them?

If Hartley loses a kicking "audition" then he WILL NOT be the first kicker to be replaced on an NFL football team mid-season- definitely happened before.

Kickers are journeymen. A very small minority, like Morten Anderson, stay with a team the majority of their career.

So I think Sean Peyton and the Saints organization are saying "NEXT..."
