Love what he's done for our team, but this team needs a fresh overhaul.
I betcha he looks at the calendar and signs with a team we will be playing this year - book it!Comment

Dude was way to full of himself. It's one thing to be that way, but then you go and blow it. It was time.Last edited by quoydogs; 05-23-2023, 11:08 AM.Comment

Couldn’t kick 64 yards at sea level in Seattle!

Interesting. This is a decision that can backfire just like the release of the punter last season. McManus' salary was ranked 8th among kickers and there is no clear replacement available, certainly not an upgrade. Mason Crosby probably is the most notorious kicker available and he only hit 1-of-4 from 50+ last season. What are they going to do? Sign 40-year old Robbie Gould? Brett Maher who missed 4 extra points in one game? I hope they know what they're doing.Comment

He was our offense last season.... it was fun guessing how many field goals we'd tally each week tho....Comment

Gotta admit, don’t like this moveComment

Seems weird. I don't understand the point. He had a $4.9 mil cap hit but a $2.4 mil dead cap?
Now you're looking for a kicker 🤷♂️Comment

Seems like he made a lot of long Field Goals. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know, I haven't gone back and checked his stats against other kickers. I don't see the need to do this.Comment

its always seems like a good idea to release an expensive kicker until you have to find another kicker. this is the same shit they did to sam martin.Comment

New rule changes means basically no more kick returns ever so no more kickers. I say go for two every time. Lets change the league.Comment

McManus was great in the SB 50 playoff run (10 for 10). I'll always thank him for that.
But he was no Prater and no Jason Elam (Brandon wasn't as consistent). His sideline outrage with Fangio when Vic wouldn't let him try a long field goal at the half of one game sealed his fate if Peyton knew about that.Comment

I still don't understand why we didn't go after a kicker after the draft. I wanted Dunn from NC St.
Oh well, he needed to be moved on from either way.Comment

McManus is at worst an average kicker. This move most likely means going with a below average kicker. If this team was tanking it would possibly make some sense to go cheap here, but with Wilson and the money they spent in FA they aren’t tanking. So unless they have someone they really like in mind, this seems dumb on the surface.Last edited by Mozzafiato; 05-23-2023, 12:02 PM.Comment
