I would cut ties and move on from Moody.

NIce guy, and I want him to dominate, but he's too shaky.Even his successful kicks do not inspire confidence. There's something off about how the ball travels off his foot, or something. I do not trust him to make kicks. And the fact that he's seeing a sports psychologist is kind of weird. you want a kicker with ice water in his veins, not one who seeks therapy for kicking.

I hope I'm wrong. It's a weird situation. He's good enough to keep the rollercoaster on the tracks, but also bad enough that every shank ignites the fan-base.
I think they will go into the season with him, and it's only a matter of time before this thing goes off the rails.

I remind myself Gould was a luxury and it'll be next to impossible to find someone that good again.

Moody's 59-yd fg for the win looked pretty good for me.

Agreed, I wasn't intending to insult Moody. I have always pulled for him, but he has been inconsistent whereas Gould I believe had one important miss that I can recall (and later made the game winner) so I think that's a tough shadow to escape for most fans.

I believe some fans will never be happy until he hits three 74 yarders a game for 3 weeks straight. Even then someone will still blame him for the SB loss.

This is how I see it. Take last game for example, every time Moody went to kick, I held my breath. I don't like that feeling & I don't think anyone else does. But every time Carlson went to kick, I knew it was good. Kinda like how it was when we had gold Gould. That's how I want to feel. Don't give a dam anymore that he was a 3rd rounder or whatever. Just get a kicker that is consistent and someone that instills confidence in everyone when they step out on the field.

Carlson is a FA at seasons end.

Judging by the reaction his teammates, that kick was a big deal.

He'll be fine. Just needed to get the jitters out

You are worried about practice misses now?

5/6 in last game. Made 44 yarder to tie, made 50 yarder, made 59 yarder to win.

That looks great to me.
