Signed an accurate kicker is terrible?

I don't get some fans, they want us to make some moves, so we bring back probably our biggest FA, yes I know Jauan is also a big name for us, but we NEEDED to re-sign Eddy, not a bad deal IMO, but can't please everyone apparently, dude missed 1 FG, will he do it again in 2026? Probably not, but he's gonna be damn near perfect IMO, as perfect as you can be.

Im honestly so grateful. Thought FO would blow it or would ruin the process some how. But they didnt. My bad.

Thing is, signing eddy really is THE first step to making a playoff run. Second is keeping Mac. Third is signing moore.

It's a fair deal. I'm happy they got something done before F/A.

That's the first good offseason news. He's worth every penny. The best kicker we have had in years. I'm glad we finally did this.

Kickers are notoriously fickle. To re-sign Pineiro after just one good season to a 4 year deal with a good chunk of guaranteed money is fairly risky. It's not like he's got some track record of consistent success

And that one miss was like a 64 yarder that was right down the middle but hit the goal post to end the half I believe. Don't understand people complaining about this one; there's only one kicker that I would take over him in Aubrey
