It was a bad kick but Kasay won us half of our games that year. It's no guarantee we would have stopped Brady anyway. The defense was fighting like hell to get 3rd down stops at that point. You know since they knew our fuging plays and everything. 

I do remember him losing us a game vs the Eagles in 2003. Literally would have won if Karsey made all his kicks. So he was capable of being bad at the wrong time.

I've had him on ignore for just as long. The problem is everyone wants to argue with him and quotes his lame ass.

 

It's always been this way. Too many ppl think they are capable of out Trolling a Troll. Well, that and the fact that we have more than our fair share of Trolls to begin with.

kasay blames himself.  His words, "It's my job to kick it into the end zone,"  Football is a game that can come down to inches and the smallest of mistakes.  That was a pretty big mistake.  I was on the "laces out" bandwagon for awhile but Kasay has moved forward and we should to.

Everyone makes mistakes. The man snapped his kneecap in half and still came back. 

It is a little like people blaming Sam Norwood for the loss when he missed the potential game-winning FG for the Bills against the Giants in Owl XXV in 1991.  Nevermind the fact that the league average in 1990 for FGs from 40-49 yards was about 62%, in many minds he missed a chip shot.

I will never blame or credit 1 player in a 60+ minute game that features 22 starters and even more players who contribute significantly in rotational snaps and special teams. That said, Kasay picked a horrible time to have a major gaffe and will probably never live it down. Just a massive choke. We don't know what would've happened if he had kicked it inbounds, maybe they still score but maybe they don't. Doesn't matter as it's all runway behind us at this point. Plenty of other plays could've gone slightly different and changed the entire game as well. Kasay was overall an incredible kicker for us and I'll remember him fondly but won't forget the out of bounds kickoff.

      Week 12: Other NFL Games

      Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE.

      He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....

      High praise for TMac

      With a strong finish to the season, he has a real chance at being just the 3rd Panther to make the Pro Bowl in their rookie season (and just the 2nd as a non special teamer) after Cam and Smitty. He won't make it on the original selections, not over JSN, Puka, Pickens, St Brown, London, Jefferson who should all finish with at least the same amount of yards and TDs, if not more.  No rookie is getting selected over all those big name vets with similar statistical seasons. But a couple injuries and/or reaching the NFC Championship and pulling out of the Pro Bowl, he very well could be one of the first couple alternates and end up making it.  Last year the NFC ended up with 7 WRs making it in the end after players who pulled out got replaced.
