Kicker Market?

[Proudiddy]

Was such the right move at 3 mil a year. Man, glad we locked this guy up.

[DecrypticShadow]

I don't know about the rest of you, but I would like a kicker that can kick a FG longer than a 35 yarder.. This is BULLSHIT!!!! What is available?

[YoungPanthers89]

stop

[Double34Trouble28]

Its one game. Damn guys. 52 yarder on the crappiest field on the planet. Just stop.

[Proudiddy]

Buh, buh, buh, he's 3 years younger than Kasay and can kick it into the endzone.

[Pantherman]

Sooo we gave up Kasey a clutch kicker for a kick in Mare that can't kick a 50 yarder. Why Oh why did Ron do that. 3Mill for a guy to only kickoff but can't kick a 50 yarder. Failure!!!:incazzato:

Kasay has also missed a FG the same distance today. Saints are firing him too I hear.

Idk why he was short... looked like he was out kicking a chip shot instead of a 52 yarder. This guy's not a bad FG kicker, chill the hell out. The blocked FG was a missed block by Shockey.

I know why he was short. BC he sucks. Kasay still has the leg for that kick and he would have made it and the one earlier that Mare kicked right into the line.

Only reason to hate Mare is he isn't Kasey.

Dude has been fine.

I refer to my thread started last week: http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/68908-why-did-we-let-go-of-kasay.html

Today only supported my arguement. We haven't been kicking those 50+ FGs because Mare doesn't have the leg. Kasay made 55 last year for us and 53 this year. He would've made this FG. But supposedly Mare has a stronger leg. The facts don't support that claim.

Mare isn't a soccer-style kicker like Kasay. His kicks will always look like chip shots.

I don't hate him, but I think this was our worst investment of the offseason. And no, it's not because of Kasay...

I probably hold the Superbowl kick out of bounds against Kasay just as much as anyone... I appreciate what he did while he was here, but I had been waiting for us to get a solid kicker out of college to take his place for probably the last 5 years.

I didn't think we would sign a guy 3 or 4 years younger than him just b/c he could kick it into the endzone.

We've passed up multiple opportunities to kick FGs that were in Kasay's range this year and then today he gets blocked for kicking it low on a 30+ yarder and kicks it too high on the next one and misses the crossbar.

uhhh... 50+ yarders arent a gimme for ANY kicker in the NFL.
