Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
Thankfully, I think that thread can officially die now. Letting Vinatieri go clearly didn't cost the Pats this game.
Gostkowski gave us a bumpy first few weeks, but, all in all, he's a keeper. |
Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
I was very happy that the Vinitraitor didn't come into play here. I was sick and tired of hearing about him this past week. Great game by Steven, and a much better Rookie season than Adam's was, I might add!!!

Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
He would've been one of the storylines if the Pats had managed to pull it out. Very proud of him, he made some huge kicks in the playoffs, and he definitely proved himself.

Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
Gostkowski came very close to being the hero. Put us up 34-31. Drilled the next kickoff deep into the endzone for a touchback. Pinned them at the 20. We get a 3 and out. Run the clock out..oops..well we know what happened.

Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
ESPN couldn't help itself and brought up having AV as a factor after the game. The kickers clearly offset each other they need to let it go.

I don't think Gostkowski missed a FG in the playoffs, he is a keeper.

No, it turned out to be letting Dan Klecko go ;)

Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
Gostkowski matched AV kick for kick. He definitely wasn't the problem tonight and he also helped our field position by getting a few touchbacks. Something AV is incapable of doing.

Re: Gostkowski v. Vinatieri
Blowing a 21-3 lead was bad enough, if it had been amplified by Gotti blowing it, that would have been a disaster. Gotti was excellent all post season and is clearly the long term answer.
