Crosby (Not to jinx him of course.)

How much of his shakiness is due to the new special teams coach? He did miss some key kicks last season. Is he becoming a head case?
If the game is on the line from more than 35 yards out, are you worried?

I'm ALWAYS worried if thats the case.
Even more so with last season't blunders and the preseason blunders by the kicking team.
Hopefully Aaron Rodgers will give us such a big cushion, we won't have to worry about that sceneario.

He hasn't had a consistent holder. That is not good. Give him a consistent holder who does a good job, he'll be fine.

I don't see what the new special teams coach would have to do with it. Crosby was shaky enough last season with the old coach. Having to use his third-string holder in the game against the Cardinals probably made him look worse than he really is.

But you better believe I'm worried if he has to kick a game-winner or game-tyer. I think he will settle down and be a good kicker for us this season. But that's just a guess. Maybe he won't.

Zero makes a good point with the holders. But remember last season. Did he go through holders last season? Don't recall. They did have to sign a brand new long snapper though, right before the game.

Not sure about the mentioning of '07 and '08 seasons.

If we go back to the days when Green Bay had guys who couldn't kick...He would look pretty good. Its kind of hard following a guy like Ryan Longwell

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score
