    Re: Mason Crosby

    Plus, with roster limits being only 80 it's kind of hard to justify two kickers and two punters in a given year. Back when it was 86 due to the NFL Europa exemption, sure... but the backup kicker who won't make the team is going to cost somebody else who plays a more impactful position (say, offensive line or linebacker) a shot at making the team and hence a shot at making the team better.

      I think the issue was Slocum getting in Crosby's head and teaching him to aim at the upright instead of aiming down the middle. Crosby needed to get that crap out of his head and just kick from muscle memory, which it appears he is back to doing after the off season.

        Interesting post. Where did you learn this?

          Slocum and Crosby have talked about his aiming point on those right hash mark misses before. Slocum wanted him to aim for the right goal post/upright and let the ball's natural hook carry it towards the middle. Problem was, when he kicked from the right hash to the right upright, he did not demonstrate any hook. It faded, if anything.

          Not sure about muscle memory.
          Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

            I was just starting to lose my Mason Crosby erection from the onside kick in the playoffs last year too.

              Maybe Slocum can help you with that.

              While the killers in high places
              Say their prayers out loud
              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
              A thundercloud

                Maybe call Jimmy Johnson.

                  Crosby may be the best onside kicker in the NFL. He's really good. Even a Viking fan at work, said last year they got worried when Crosby lines up for an onside kick because he's so good at it.
