Mason Crosby

[Kitten]

Awesome game for Crosby! What was it, 15 points all his? The 60, or 50 + FG was awesome. He drilled that sucker. He also tacked on the "game winning" points to seal the win by making it a two score game late in the 4th. Crosby is on fire! Glad I have him on my Fantasy team!

When I got his autograph I said " I can't wait to see you kick a 56 yard game winner" he laughed and said " how about we make it 35". TT and MM must see value in him. He has that big leg. That is really going to come in handy this weekend. If he can put it in the back of the end zone it will keep Hester leashed up. Just like our record, so far he is perfect.

I gave him the confidence to do that! Well it wasn't a 56 yard game winner but it was a 56yard game changer. Make no mistake that was a bigtime pressure kick. There is a Reason Big Mac an TT were willing to give him the contract. He misses this kick and instead of 14-9 with 5:38 left it is still 14-6 and Atlanta has the ball on their 47. That ball would have made it from 60. Well put those extra yards in our back pocket for a rainy day.

He won't miss one until the game is on the line.

there needs to be a don't like or "eat crow" button.

He's perfect for the year, but this was his stand out performance so far, easily. 4/4 FGs. 56 yard FG. 6/7 touchbacks. Dome or not, 35 yard line or not, you can't ask for more from the kicker.

Man, when will some people learn to just trust Ted already. They "say" they are on the bandwagon with what they see from Rodgers and the Championships but right when he makes his next move, they question him again. It's a never ending cycle.

its rough ain't it??? I'm glad I'm just a rabid fan, and not the GM!

I have no problem with people questioning moves, heck, now it looks like letting Barnett go might have been a mistake, look at what he's doing in Buffalo.

What I have a problem with is people constantly harping on him and hating every move he makes and rarely if ever admitting what works and what doesn't

 

[Lunchboxer]

The man made a Franchise Record 58 Yard FG.

I think the haters need to eat some crow.

 

[Green_Bay_Packers]

yeah I so agree
Love You Mason

 

[Bogart]

Just further proof if you give someone enough time, they will get better.

Crosby is the Morten Anderson of the Green Bay Packers. I used to dream of us having a kicker like Andersen that could nail 50+ yarders, and now we do!

 

[Green_Bay_Packers]

All you people should be ashamed I have been loving our kicker for ages, now everyone likes him

 

[cheesehurdler]

Janikowski's grinding his teeth right now...

 

[Bart]

Ye, i gotta say that i were one of those hating crosby 2 years ago, but now i wouldnt trade him for anyone else. It is just amazing so good he have become, so i take back all the words i have said. Sorry crosby

 

[realcaliforniacheese]

I am going to have to tweet him and tell him my expectation is now a 64 yard game winner.

 

[Kitten]

In TT we trust! Crosby is having a spectacular year! He's been perfect!!!

 

[Bensalama21]

lol I liked him the moment we drafted him and I never looked back! I defended him in the thread saying he sucked multiple times

 

[weeds]

It's easier to love a guy who isn't hitting the upright or crossbar.

 

[Murgen]

Hey, I'll admit he's playing at the level that we should expect...especially for the $$ he's getting. He had some sucky years before. I'll give MM credit for sticking with him and giving him time to develop.

 

[PackersRS]

It really looks that Crosby has finally figured out what the hell was going on and put it together. The talent was always there.

At the level we expect? We expect him to be perfect? Well if we expect him to be the best kicker in the NFL I guess he's living up to expectations. He has the strongest leg in the NFL aside from Sebastian Janikowski. This year he is the most accurate. All-Pro?

 

[Murgen]

He's getting paid like the best kicker in the league if I'm not mistaken. So yeah, we should expect that. imo.

 

[PackersDraft]

I would say he is exceeding expectations. Maybe that's just me. Dude kicked 4 field goals today. One was a franchise record and we only won by 6 points. Pretty clutch.

I am happy with him now, still think he isn't great looking.
