[QUOTE="fanindaup, post: 499653, member: 8875"] I'd like to make the observation that pure FG% can't tell the whole story here. Crosby is asked to attempt a lot of 50+ yd. field goals, makes most of his kicks outdoors, and probably half the time in inclement weather. He holds the Lambeau record for longest made and most consecutive (I was at the game against Tampa when he snapped it). If there is anyone on this board who is nerd enough to crunch the numbers and takes all these other factors into account and can come back proving convincingly Crosby still sucks, I'm man enough to admit I'm wrong. You'll be asked to show your work. Until then, I'm filing it away as just like on certain days I get a case of the shanks on the golf course, and some days it gets in my head. Granted, there's more on the line but it happens. I've seen great kickers miss chip shots. I remember Chris Jacke missing a PAT against the Rams that lost the game. Jacke was a great kicker but has a lower lifetime FG% than Crosby's. [/QUOTE]
