Is Nick Novak (or anyone else available right now) really any better than John Hall? Even if Hall continues to hit at a rate of only 70%, he's still better than Nick Novak or anybody else available in the free agent market. You don't just go cutting a guy just because he's been missing. You replace him if you can find somebody better. I don't know that we can.

We should have gone after Ryan Longwell in the offseason when we had the chance. He's appreciably better than Hall. But trying to replace him now would be pointless. We'd end up with an equally substandard kicker, if not worse.
