Carney statement . . .

DblBogey · 09-29-2010, 08:53 PM

“Garrett & I have become very good friends over the last year and a half. I am here to help him & help the Saints. There is no ‘stealing somebody’s job’ or anything of that nature. Garrett was phenomenal last year. Around the league, everybody has very high respect for what he did in the playoffs & the Super Bowl. He will remain a great kicker in the NFL. I am just here to help him through this,” - John Carney

Exactly. Hire him on as a coach, but don't waste a much needed friggen' roster spot if he's not even going to kick.

Kinda hard since he don't want to coach, its not like the Saints could force the guy.

I think he will kick.

It's gonna be like when he and Cundiff were here. Carney gets the short ones, Hartley gets the 40+ yarders that he seems to be automatic at making.

no... giving up a roster spot is one thing, but actually dressing two kickers, neither of which kick off, makes no sense

whats up with the cut and the 46 year old pickup. the 3 year investment that was a man among boys in preseason.what chance he stays a free man till one of us goes down at that position.
