No.

Sad ... probably his last game with NE was Sunday ... 5M cap hit 36 yr old coming from and IR season ... Will miss him a LOT

4-12 confirmed.

One thing with Ghost he is Clutch from 40 and up hope our next kicker can be trusted from that range tougher Games are coming.

Why sad?

This team, which was already the best in the league by a wide margin, just got better today.

So are you happy and celebrate that Gost is in IR ?

Drewski said:

Am I mistaken or does Bailey not have background kicking (as well as being a punter)?

Could bring back Allen to punt and let Bailey Kick.....

Seems legit. Make it so, BB!

Did the opening of the champagne gif not make that obvious?

Injury bug haunting the offense and special teams this season.

no thanks on Lloyd.. enough of the media devils. They would be insufferable. We don't need anymore idiot media covering the team.

Seems my recollection was partially right.

He handled Kickoffs at Stanford and was the emergency kicker.

Bailey also handled kickoff duties for Stanford. He produced 118 touchbacks his last two seasons, as he averaged 45.4 and 44.1 yards per kick. He was additionally the Cardinal’s emergency field goal kicker.

Everybody that wanted him gone will now have the final answer if we are better with or without him..
My guess - we're better with him

What bottle will you be opening after SB54 when NE wins their record setting 7th SB?

This actually sheds some more light on the Richards signing as well. Chances are, whoever we bring in off the street isn't going to boom touchbacks at the same rate Gost did. We're going to need better kick coverage than we've been getting, and as much as people hate him, that is something he has experience doing well in the past.

He was still pretty good in 2018, just based on stats. But is he stateside?

Another champagne one and you ?

Well shoot. Wonder if there’s any decent young kickers who might win the job going forward.

Not sure yet. Have to ask the wife and girlfriends what they prefer. Will put it to a 10 person vote.
