I almost forgot about the coffin kick. Morstead put a big grin on my face with that one. Just nasty.

Harbaugh already had a kicker but brought him in for competition. When we played and practiced with them in preseason Harbaugh told Payton he should sign him.iirc He was basically a gift!

I think you're right.

When I re-watched most of the games from last year, it stuck out to me how automatic he was.

We usually would miss field goals and it would make games tighter when we should've been blowing teams out years ago. With Lutz, that has changed.

Oh the funny part of this is that it wasn't Payton who say saw something in him it was none other than Ravens Coach John Harbough.

There is a story - lets call it legend now.

Saints were practice or Pre-season game and vs each other and Payton mention his kicker troubles and Harbough told Sean that I have 2 kickers... I am going to have to cut one don't know which yet but you should get him once we cut him.

Look how pumped our guys are after that win. They act like they just won a playoff game. Never seen such a celebration on game one. These guys are a team and in it to win it.
