Would you be fine with Kunalic kicking for the rest of the year?

So we signed Kunalic, and Mare is on the hot seat.

We are out of the playoffs, and losing really wouldn't hurt anything but the team's pride now.

So, do we take a chance with this kid, let him kick for the rest of the year and let Mare ride the pine, or do we let Mare finish what he started this year?

I for one, am in favor of letting Kunalic get the nod from here on out. I mean it's not like Mare is earning his contract by making field goals, at least he wouldn't be hurting the team as he was eating up salary on the bench.

See how Mare does the rest of the year. Make desicion then

Not only is this a great way to miss out on what we might have in Kunalic, it's a great way to keep that good ole fashioned "It is what it is" mentality in the locker room while simultaneously giving Mare another chance to blow a game for us.

I mean, who cares about Rivera following through with what he said he would do and holding players accountable for their actions, cutting a starter midseason is just a silly notion. And certainly nothing a credible head coach like John fox would do. Can't send the message that we are going to make players grow up or get out, need to make sure they are coddled and loved until the "time" is right.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      I agree, but I've already said that the players will definitely take more money up front because it's more security. But they want more guaranteed money and NFL FOs don't want to do that for several and various reasons, and that's what's at issue.  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-second-round-rookies-finally-starting-to-sign-what-took-so-long-and-what-it-means-for-future-contracts/ It's a tug of war between teams and players, and, sure, paying a player a signing bonus may satisfy them, especially if--and sometimes "only if"--it ultimately leads to a guarantee of more of their contract, but the teams are on the hook for all of those guarantees when cap time comes, so if they guarantee more money, they're ultimately losing the contract game.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
