Maybe he can make them "routinely" on a practice field with little to no rush.
Put him in a real NFL game and the pressure becomes immense, then lets see if he can do it "routinely."
I doubt it and I'll never believe 60-65 yard field goal attempts should be part of a teams arsenal.

Wow. Shocking. I mean, my bud was there watching Ramirez crushing them out on Sunday. This is not looking good for him. Crosby looks to be answering.

If Crosby keeps his job that will be because he won it back, and I will have no problem supporting him. I really didn't think that would be possible, but all of that is erased after today. Looks like we will have to wait on this till after Thursday.

Maybe during the season GB should bring in random kickers looking for work to put pressure on Crosby each week. He seems to respond to it.
