All I ask is the whiners do not win the SB
I think Detroit could beat them
And or Ravens or Bills
IMHO, I just think maybe it underscores you should pay for a kicker. Everyone wants to find a rookie that is cheap, but usually it takes even the better one awhile to adjust. LaFleur stated they are committed to Carlson, but IMO, they win the game if he makes that kick. You need your kicker with close playoff games and if you find a rookie and you are a building team that is fine, but the Packers did not expect to be in that position this late in the season and that is why they went with a rookie.
There are some good kickers coming out this year with the likes of Josh Karty (Stanford), Will Reichard (Alabama) & Harrison Mevis (Missouri), however, I would rather have the Rams sign and pay for veteran especially one of the better kickers like Ka'imi Fairbairn of Houston or even soon to be 40 year old Nick Folk who FG percentage was 97% with the Titans this year and would be half the price of Fairbairn.
