To be fair to Gould, his percentage the last couple of years hasn't been all that far below his career average. The problem is we paid him based off two incredible years when he kicked well into the 90+ % area.
So for me it's his value that bothers me more than anything else. Definitely on the decline though.

Yes fully GTD, either we'd get him to take a pay cut, or release him, but save nothing.

The team picked him up I can't fault a guy for missing a kick as long as we get the dub it's all good

Along with Wish. Neither very good.
False I believe some of Bengals special teams problems is because the Aussie juice Mitch puts on the ball.

This is a great point.

All the kicks and punts looked really funky today. Was there some kind of wind issue? I don't get it. Regardless, Gould is only 11/14 this year, less than 80% -- that might've been good in the old days, but unacceptable now.
STs has been a disaster this year. Hightower needs to go, but I hate to say it.. but if they can find a better guy, Gould may need to go too.

Been watching him for a while and he's either hurt or gives back momentum. Said it last week guy seems to be on the take. Find someone else ASAP!

we don''t need to pay someone 5M to miss important field goals. Could have saved a lot of drama Robbie.

I want to look at that kick again -- it looked right on target at first and then seem to just whip wide suddenly. Anyone else notice that?
Look at this: inside the left post then just drifts out of the blue all the way right.

Flags on the post weren't moving at all, so it doesn't look like there was wind. But it seemed like both kickers and punters had the ball spinning in weird ways.
