I have no issue what so ever with them bringing in competition. I just think some of you all are expecting to easily find another kicker who kicks for touch backs every kickoff, never misses an extra point, never misses a field goal under 50 yards, and can hit most 50+ yard field goals, and every single one of them in a high pressure situation.
Those kickers don't exist. The few kickers who are better than Gostkowski right now are on other teams. Most in the league are worse. The reason competition wasn't brought in this year was there wasn't anyone available who was close. I have no doubt that if someone is available next season, or for that matter today, who is better than Gost, he will be in here in a heart beat, one thing Bill is never afraid of is upgrading the team.
