I can't believe this isn't a thread yet... seeing how it has been one of several positions that has eluded us as of late...
Blake Haubeil vs Tucker McCann.
Who do you believe is our starting kicker -- or do we kick the tires on signing another ex Patriot ST'er lol....

I find it hard to believe it’s McCann, given the kickers brought in during Gotmilksie’s injury time. Hopefully, they are waiting for a decent guy to get cut in camp. Otherwise, “No, not again!”I can't believe this isn't a thread yet... seeing how it has been one of several positions that has eluded us as of late...

Wow. I must have missed that gostkowski was gone.
Hopefully one shows up then. I’m also pretty alright with just going for it all the time.

It was so fun when we didn’t have a kicker the 2nd half of 2019. I’m all for it.
He would be a good signing, only 26 years old, and experiencedZane Gonzolas is available.

Certainly worth brining in to compete. I'm sure there will be some cuts as well but taking a look before that happens would be nice.
Really wish we would've drafted Evan McPherson from Florida. Guy is going to be a stud.
Kicker and stud don’t really go togetherReally wish we would've drafted Evan McPherson from Florida. Guy is going to be a stud.
Kickers aren’t real people
I mean... if we had a consistent kicker, then we're probably 13-3 last yr..... most definitely 12-4.
:headbang:Just go for it on 4th down
Give a young guy a chance. No retreads. We should have gotten the Kentucky kid last year. Not a huge leg, but money from 50 and in.

Nope, because Arthur I likely would have trusted with that....... Downing? - yea, I'll sit this one out at least for now.
How do you know Downing isn't going to be as good as Arthur? We had no idea how good Arthur would be when he took over and he was taking over for the great Lefluer and was better than him. Plus with our skill people and OL we could run a Madden playbook and have success.

Just sign Jose Borregales when the Bucs cut him. They just gave Succop a 3 year extension.
“Prior to the draft, Borregales was considered a possible Day Three selection after his excellent 2020 season with the Hurricanes. After he instead went undrafted, it was a surprise to some that he chose to sign with the Buccaneers, who appear to have all the confidence in the world in their current veteran kicker. Of course, Borregales can audition for all 32 teams in Tampa Bay's camp, and Special Teams Coordinator Keith Armstrong believes Succop's presence was actually part of the draw in Tampa for the rookie hopeful.
"I think that's probably why he came," said Armstrong. "What better way to learn than to come in and kick behind a guy that's done well for years. And then you have Chris Boniol here who kicked in the league and was an established kicker for years. You've got two guys there that he can learn from, so if you're going to go to camp you might as well go to camp somewhere where you can learn."
