It's not that simple. The question isn't simply "how many more times does he have to miss." The question is will Nick Novak (or any other chump kicker who is available) miss less often than John Hall? The answer is no in my mind. Novak kicks the ball too low, has too many blocked.

And blocks aren't just misses. Blocks have the potential for being run back for a TD.

Think about it man. Why would a kicker be available during Week 2 of the season if he was any good?

If one more miss by Hall means one more game in the loss column, it'll be too late. Hall showed that his range is 27 yards - barely. On Monday Night, if it comes to 4th down between Dallas' 15 and 40, we have to go for it.

The skins missed the boat on replacing Hall. Anyone they get now will be just as bad. They should have gone after Longwell, Vineteiri or Vanderjadgt. There has never been an offseason with so many good kickers available. Instead the skins chose to spend money on 2 WR's when they only needed 1 and a safety that was not a huge need either. The Redskins and every other team have no respect for the kicker position until they start losing games becasue of it. Look who jumped at top kickers in the offseason...Dallas & Indy...both of whom lost big games on field goal kicking last year. The Redskins will realize it eventually but there will not be the same level of kicker available as was there for them this year.
