I know numbers aren't a very good way to measure kickers, but he does have a higher FG % and touchback total than Dawson.
Then again he did miss that game-tying FG when we played them in 2015. So I expect all the chicken littles to bring it up over and over again to make this signing look terrible.
He's a quality kicker for sure. Seen him kick a lot here in Chicago for a long time. He's dependable. Even has a higher % from 50+ (74%) than Dawson (70%).
He had a rough pre-season in 2016 and the Bears used that opportunity to cut him for a younger, cheaper option. Gould kicked well for the Giants this year.
Its a solid addition. Just be glad we're not sending out Jose Cortez or Owen Pochman lol.

A 92 year old kicker that wants more money makes no sense to me, but I trust you guys!
