Vinatieri doesn't have a GB deal - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

I think the Adam thing is getting a bit overblown, however he still was a very important part.. It is silly thinking that someother kicker would help...

Like I have been saying all along, BB knew Adam leaving was a possibility. He is prepared for this. I am fairly certain he will not be bringing in Kathy Ireland to kick for us, ala Unecessary Roughness!

It's time for the Patriot's to take Ryan Longwell 's contract, add

$1 mil., and present the offer to AV as a final best offer. If he

refuses, say goodbye and good luck and find another kicker.

Let's look at this from another perspective.

Maybe there is a physical problem that is the underlying factor here.?

The Pats are keeping quiet about it so AV can shop for that last contract.

That in itself would show the class of the Pats org.

Now with both AV and the Pats not saying anything, the press and fans are starting to come unraveled.

I'll waite untill the dust settles before I cast the first ball of crap at either AV or the Pats.

Remember AV's kickoffs are getting shorter, the f/g's are getting a little harder to make.? Just my thoughts

That is an interesting thought...

I thought his kickoffs were a little better this year but that might just be my perception. It was noticeable how Belichick passed up more 43+ yard FGs than ever before late in the season.

Very true..going on 4th doewns..but was that with the wind..or against it? OR in general when it was a closer game.

ADAM'S KICKOFFS ARE GETTING LONGER, not shorter. Christ.

Sorry to upset you 23.

I don't follow stats, just what I see on the field as it pertains to the game at hand.

Some days AV was long, some days short. Average yrds not a factor to me, just a trend I'm beginning to see.

One day with a gust of wind, the next with no wind, just looking at yards and conditions m8, then makeing an observation.
