The kicker is the reason why we lost in 2009. We would have won if he made those easy FGs. In 2011 and 2012 we were rebuilding. We backed into the playoffs with a sub-par team. The team had very very little offensive weapons and the defense wasn't even close to as good as it was in future years. 2013 we had major injuries too. We only had 2 starters playing in the secondary and Geno Atkins was hurt too. Plus the offensive line was banged up and we had Eifert out too.
