Yes, he actually said that.

"I have zero interest in bringing in another kicker. "He's a very talented kicker, he's our kicker and and he'll be our kicker. And he'll kick it through the uprights."

Good for you Mike, now how about bringing in a real kicking coach that can help him put it through the uprights.

I don't. If bringing in another kicker for competition is going to hurt Crosby's feelings, he needs to retire and join the Girl Scouts.

i guess i get it for the media's sake - behind closed doors, it'd be made perfectly f'in clear that the kicks need to be made - no excuses or he's gone!

I don't like it. What's the harm in bringing someone in?

Well, here's hoping we don't need a clutch kick to make the playoffs or to win a playoff game (God forbid).

I guess I am a little surprised on the one hand but then again this may be the best way to go. You bring another guy in and the media makes a big deal out of it and more than likey nobody is going to win a job at this late date.

All that does is dump more pressure on the guy.

I could just imagine the blood bath if they did go with somebody else and he started missing. The McCarthy haters would have a field day.

So you are worried that there would be too much pressure on him? Seriously? These guys get paid lots of money. Hell yeah there is a lot of pressure. If they can't deal with pressure, they don't need to be in the NFL.


Wow. I am dumbfounded how anyone can defend MM here. Unfreakingbelievable.

I already said previously that it's time to bring other kickers in for tryouts but If the Packer heierarchy is against that then at least bring in a kicking coach to help the kid out.
Obviously the present coaching situation is not working.
