Aikman and Buck were all over this during the game. Every time the field goal unit went out in the first half, including extra points.

Last year everyone of his kicks were straight dead center. He obviously has a technique problem when he's pushing those kicks left so why hasn't someone on the staff been able to show him what the problem is (was)?

I will at least try to give Hartley some benefit of the doubt. He had Brunell holding last year. I know this is no excuse, for the most part the holding hasn't been a visible problem, but we never know with these head case kickers. What we can assume is over the course of the rest of the season is Hartley is going to be counted on to win some games. I really hope whatever the issue was/is, is now corrected or will be quickly.
