Robby Gould, we can't lose this guy

Has his price gone down yet?

It's damn scary to go into the season knowing you have a playoff ready team and have to trout out a rookie kicker who's been missing kicks throughout Preseason. I swear I thought Shanahan was smarter than that. The one thing I applauded Shanahan for the year he was hired was figuring out the Kicking game. If they don't bring back Gould and I don't see how they can. I'd be fine going into the season with Zane Gonzales.

There was no reason to get rid of Gould, absolutely none. "He was 40" ya, I don't give a 💩 about that. He was 🔥. I really didn't like this move at all

Well there was one reason: money. That's the reason

If not Robbie Gould I'd be keeping an eye out for Dustin Hopkins of the Chargers. Mason Crosby is also out there who's two years younger than Gould.

Torn between this. Robbie will want more $ but he's been consistent with his FG's. Just tired of his lack of leg strength, especially on kickoff's. Dustin damn near booted it in the stands on his kickoff at our field.

I agree with you on Gould he is money on Xtra point, not to mention he has kicked some game winners for the 9ers. And I kinda put Mason Crosby in the same category, money on xtra point but not that strong of leg anymore. Hopkins he's been pretty decent on xtra points at 84.8% and has a 73.7% on touchbacks, both Gould and Crosby are in the 30 percentile range for touchbacks.

I'll tell you right now I would much rather go into the season with Hopkins than I would with Moody or Zane who can't also stay healthy.
We don't have the cap room and he is getting older now.

Kicking the ball inside the 5 yard line > bombing it out of the endzone

Not with our kickoff coverage luck. EDIT: especially now that this season you can fair catch those and move on up.
