Robbie Gould

(09-05-2016, 07:38 PM)SunsetBengal Wrote: 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?

I found this from today's Chicago Tribune : "Gould had a rough patch last season after starting on a tear by making his first 15 field-goal attempts. Gould missed a 36-yarder wide left as regulation time expired in a 26-20 overtime loss to the 49ers at Soldier Field on Dec. 20. A week later, his 50-yard try with 1 minute, 40 seconds remaining was wide right in a 24-21 loss to the Redskins, also at home.

Gould finished the season right near his career average by making 84.6 percent of his field goals, but he did miss six of his final 24."

Some say you can place your ear next to his, and hear the ocean ....
