I hope Cassel, or somebody is working on the holds. I think laces on the side is contributing to his "hard slider".

Another thing is, he needs to shorten up his windup from 30 yds and in. He doesn't need to kill the ball, just pop it.

I never had a problem with him. You can't start out a 10 year vet.

Vinatieri was under 80% 3 of his first 4 years.

The Gost is doing quite well this year.....He has such a strong leg.....I think there is more than will ever know what the real reason for Adam departure......GO PATS!!!!!

All in all he has done a good job. He's had three different holders this year. I think Josh Miller helped Ghostkowski with his confidencent and his holds. I think we underestimate the importance of a good holder.

The best thing about that stat is 0 for 0 inside 20 - we have been scoring touchdowns!

...and, if the two blocks get eliminated, and he continues to kick that well for 15 years, he'll could be called the best in the history of the game.

He's had a better rook season than Adam did, and with 3 different holders! His kickoffs have been pretty consistently high and deep. Overall I'd say he was a great decision.

I've always supported him and I think he's only going to get better and better. I have confidence in him,and even if he misses a kick during the playoffs I wouldn't necessarily say he can't handle the playoffs-misses happen,even to AV. Will he be as "clutch" as AV was? Remains to be seen of course but I think he has the potential to be. AV's re-appearance in Foxboro,for instance, had to be considered a big game,at least in HIS mind but also in the fans' minds too. When AV missed the crowd went wild,and when Gost made his,ditto. That was a big moment for him,imo-maybe one of his biggest so far.
If these games come down to a final FG and he makes it for the Win (or at least OT),that will be huge for him and his confidence. If that happens,the world's his oyster. If he misses in that situation,we can complain all we want but he'll feel awful,and who knows how long he'd carry that with him-ugly scenario,not only for us fans and the team of course,but also for him,maybe even into next season. I can hear the media now...

I've got confidence in Gostowski - though I, like he, will be nervous if he needs to win the game with a kick.

Unfortunately I think you can't compare his regular season to his post season. Its a completely different animal with the pressure so much higher.

So it will be interesting to see how he does - but all indications are that we got ourselves a keeper.
