Re: Sean Payton says Kicker Jose Maltos has "got a live leg and his get off times are good"
 

Think it maybe CYA also. What a move for a guy from Mexico. This will be real pressure. That being said sometime a determined man just needs a chance. I slso have A hole problems from Hartley and his misses can't come at more critical times. He does not have the composure or concentration to be one of the best. I hope not to have to watch him again. Wish him the best just somewhere else.

Maltos looks wormy.........just like every other Mexican kicker.

Due to the nature of their origin. Soccer.

Not trying to carry GH's water here, but he's currently the most accurate K in Saints history.

Garrett Hartley 60-71 (84.5%) 135/136 on PATs
John Kasay 30-36 (83.3%) 65/65 on PATs
John Carney 168-203 (82.8%) 264/268 on PATs
Doug Brien 123-149 (82.6%) 144/145 on PATs
Morten Anderson 302/389 (77.6%) 412/418 on PATs


I agree I get a little uneasy seeing GH trot out on the field with the game on the line, but I have always felt that way about kickers in general.

Jose will provide some competition for Hartley, and that is probably a good thing, plus he mighe be a good plan B if Hartley ends up hurt again.

When a player at any position that you carry 1 on the roster at has only played a full season 1 year out of 5, its time to get another. I dont care if he is 100% on FGs, if he can only play 8 games in a season your fkd the other 8 games. We have had to carry an extra kicker or a kicker other than Hartley all but one of his seasons. Just going off of Hartleys accuracy stat is comparable to giving a BU QB the title of most accurate when he only throws 15 passes a season.

If you take the season he was 100% which needs to be asterisked because he was on medication that he was later suspended for he is 81.2% which knocked him out of the top 4 kickers the Saints have had.
