There were many mistakes in the game against San Francisco that contributed to the loss, Carlson being one of them.Besides QB, I think that kicker is the hardest position for a rookie to play because of the intense scrutiny and mental side of kicking. Generally I think that the fan base needs to have patience with this kid. Not every player comes out like CJ Stroud to light up the NFL. Carlson has shown that he has the physical skills to be an elite kicker. Mike Zimmer was short-sighted and cut Carlson's brother, who is now probably the best kicker in the league. With the tremendous upside and kicking pedigree, he deserves a longer leash.Yeah - he might cost us an important game again but I think that it's worth the gamble. Currently there are no options out there that are significantly better. In the current scenario, then I believe that we should stick with the kid with more potential.</blockquote>
