[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 984896, member: 17953"] No. I'm not "fooling myself," as you suggested. I'm stating a fact, based on what I do know coaches do. I pointed out that Crosby hadn't even tried for 50+ kicks until the last 4 years. Over this period of time, he's 12-17. Compare it to others around the league. Now, if you were right, and he didn't have the leg strength, and was aging, why would they suddenly start having him kick longer FGs when he's older, after his leg strength had diminished? Obviously your stats don't mean squat in this situation, and the reality of him actually attempting them, and having what's a pretty good record for kicks of that distance, none of what you said really carries any weight. Fact - NFL FG percentage over 50 yards is around 72%. Crosby is at 71%. He's right on average, and his kicking them that far has only been over 4 years. You're trying to say his leg suddenly got stronger but weaker, because he's old. That doesn't make sense. You're totally ignoring the fact that the Packers have been notorious at not insuring that the long snapper and holder are in sync with the kicker. Even LeFleur admitted that was their problem, not a lack of belief in Crosby. But, since Crosby will probably be gone next year, due to salary, we can start talking about how pathetic the situation is with the new guy, who can't make the clutch kick. That should be a lot of fun. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
