Re: Saints Work Out Kickers

I think this is just a motivation tactic. Example Hou kicker (forget his name) missed 2 important kicks.. houston brings in kickers to scare the dude. next week he makes a 45 yarder.. I don't see us cutting ties this late in the season.

Absolutely not! A missed 35 yarder puts the opponent in much worse field position than 40-55 yards...

Saints Workout Three Kickers

Hartley, a six-year veteran, is most known for his performance in the 2009 playoffs where he hit the game-winning field goal in overtime to beat Minnesota in the NFC championship game and three field goals in Super Bowl XLIV.

He ain't goin anywhere. Hartley is going to stay. I agree this is a motivational tactic. Whatever Sean thinks I'm good with.

Re: Saints Work Out Kickers

This motivational tactic has been used on Hartley before....I think Payton is for real now. Get rid of Fartley, this aint 2009 anymore. What have you done for me lately? MISS KICKS!

The Jets game would have been tied 26-26 if he would have made his kicks.

Stats show he only missed one.
New Orleans Saints vs. New York Jets - Box Score - November 03, 2013 - ESPN
The tipped balls for INTs cost us more in that game.

Danno, I clicked the like thing.

It was not sufficient.

You summed up what I and everyone I know thinks right there.
