Regardless, it bodes well if Gase has learned a lesson from his Miami days. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a positive after the buzz around him not liking the Bell contract. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandy Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Have you guys seen that Jason Myers guy that plays for Seattle? He's really good and it would be awesome to have a kicker like him on the team.

Gase looks sooooo much more comfortable since ousting Maccagnan, and you wonder how much of his alleged gripe about Bell had to do with Maccagnan being the one to pull the trigger on it despite his (Gase's) wishes. Now, he looks at the roster as a bunch of dudes he can do with what he pleases, so it's all gravy. Bell also seems to be a fun guy who's obviously talented, but also (obviously) attention-needy. The non-cynical view is that maybe Gase actually likes him, despite the reputation he came with from Pittsburgh. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if they go 6-10 this year and set fire to the roster after January, I feel like Gase has already moved the franchise leaps and bounds forward just by pulling their heads out of their asses. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This won't make you happy: https://www.seahawks.com/news/six-observations-from-day-5-of-2019-seahawks-training-camp Quote A day ago, I pointed out how Jason Myers has been almost automatic during training camp, noting that I’d yet to see him miss. On Tuesday Myers did miss, barely, from 48 yards. Even so, it has been an outstanding camp for the kicker coming off a Pro-Bowl season in 2018. “He has been fabulous,” special teams coordinator Brian Schneider said. “I think he has missed one, I think he’s 22 for 23 so far. He has been really consistent, and just getting those three guys together (punter/holder Michael Dickson and long snapper Tyler Ott), the consistency of them working together and getting a good feel for each other has been really good and clean. It’s been good.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is easy in camp in shorts with everybody all buddy-buddy in the summer sun.

A missed extra point can upend your entire season and get every one of your coaches fired, but you're going to dump the guy who makes those kicks for wanting third-string QB money? 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could've paid him 10 mill a year and still be stable financially. The worst losses that a team faces is from inept kicking. Look at Blair Walsh, Zayne Gonzalez, and Cody Parkey. It's a position people like to gloss over and pretend it's easily replaceable when the difference between a great kicker and a bad kicker is winning and losing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Expecting playoffs is not necessarily realistic and an unfair bar considering how this team was basically shooting itself in the foot for the last 4 years and 5 offseason. Give the new regime a chance like we gave horrible Mac and Bowles a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly hope we all still feel this way, justifiably, in mid-season 2019. Let me put it this way: Gase was the best coach the Jets could have hired based on who would have taken the job, and simply by staging the coup and bringing in highly-regarded personnel execs (and getting them $$$PAID$$$) has brought about a massive and unexpected culture change. The alternative was having Matt Rhule quoting scripture here with Maccagnan walking the sidelines with his coffee cup and a few hundred headlines about how pissed Gregg Williams is that he's working for a relatively unaccomplished college guy. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made the pro bowl and missed a bunch of kicks at the end of the year after he was announced to the team. He sucked in 2017. He sucked at the end of 2018. How dare we not pay him!!!!! FWIW, I am not a big Catanzaro fan either. His career stats are very similar to Myers, but he is probably almost 5% better on extra points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good until you factor in that Macc did not have a Plan B. He let Myers walk but didn't target another competent kicker. Do you believe Catanzaro will put up similar numbers to Myers this year?
