Da Wolf - You are so right about kickers screwing with our R&G. In fairness,we have had our share of great kickers in Stenerud, Lowery, and to a lesser extent, Stoyo. In these days of parity, three points looks mighty big sometimes. I need to get Proctor to check the last few years to see where three points would have turned games & even seasons. I don't have stats for that. But I do know the Chiefs passed a potentially great kicker in this past draft, the little brother of Martin Gramatica.I have heard that he is even better than Martin to which I can only say "WHEW"!!!!! I believe he was still available in the third round & maybe even later. Parity has made NFL games even closer than they were in the past. Great kickers last a long time & are very hard to find. The faders seem to recognize this as they took one with a 1st rounder.
