Anders Carlson was not good in 2023, yet, he somehow was better than Mason Crosby rookie season. Or maybe I should say less bad, lol. Aside from that, I am not seeing anyone that's worth bringing in that isn't -out of the frying pan and into the fire- kind of difference.

This morning the Packernet podcast threw up some rather average stats that people want in a kicker. There were o0nly two that qualified. Crosby never reached that level and Ryan Longwell on had a 5 year span that he achieved it over his 16 year career. I forget the standards 86% of FGs made. 95% of PATs or something like that.

The thing about Greg Joseph is he kicked in a dome and was still cut. The Vikings have a rookie and they don't even want a camp battle between them.
