What the fuck has John Kasay ever done for us?

I apologise, I guess I just suck.

24/26 this season? The only misses coming from 50 yards plus when wind was a factor? Perfect on extra points? Terrible. If I was a good kicker, I would be able to kick a 50 yarder through a tornado. I mean its not like there was a 30mph crosswind going on at the time of the kick.

This loss is entirely on my shoulders, its not like we had bad drops, holding penalties, defensive failures or conservative offensive playcalling, it was all my fault.

1278 points.

The equivalent of 213 touchdowns. (Jerry Rice had 208)

Hasn't missed an extra point since 2005.

30 of 60 from 50+

That's just us, not counting Seattle, total points scored = 1615.

There's no kicker I'd rather have from inside of the 45 yard line to win a game with a field goal. Not one.

Cool... thread has gone on for eleven pages :lol:

I'm definitely not classified as a Kasay nut-hugger. Not that I don't think he's served us well, and still has a few kicks left in him. And I wasn't a big fan of re-signing Kasay, at least for the amount of time we signed him for. But even I don't see how you can put this missed FG solely on him.

The wind was blowing in that stadium so hard that you could even hear it in the microphones of the announcers. I think it was in the 20-25 mph range? Then you have to ask yourself... on the play just prior to the FG attempt, why did we run to the side that the wind was BLOWING TO... making any FG attempt that much more difficult, no matter who it was kickiing it.

Nah... to miss this one by just a few yards to the left, from the left side of the field, with the wind blowing right-to-left... I think he did about as good as anyone could expect to do from that distance, really.

I haven't read all the posts on this thread. But I still do blame Kasey for the Super Bowl loss. Spare me "the Patriots would have scored anyway" argument. You don't know what would have happened if the Pats started at the 20 or inside the 20 yard line.

This is like the 1000th thread about this topic...Move on dammit

Kasay didn't give up the rest of the yards that got Vinateri in FG range

He did piss me off last week however...that was a chokejob...I need another W to forget about that one...

May be he will redeem himdelf at the meadowlands again :-)
