Something is just "off" about the Bears releasing Gould, and pretty much immediately signing Barth. I did some looking. Gould is the 9th most accurate kicker in NFL history, is the Chicago Bears all time leading scorer. He missed 2 PATs this preseason. Seems like pretty harsh treatment, for a player of Gould's accolades. I'm wondering, what gives? I mean, is 34 the magic number where prolific NFL kickers suddenly fall off of the proverbial cliff?
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
