Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Should we sign him? He might be a turd, but he's going to be better than Novak, who is making less than 50% of his FG attempts.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

yes-we should sign my grandmother before we let Novak kick again

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

No shit, whos their kicker now........

Hell we could sign him to kick non pressure situations lol like a 41 yarder to tie a game in the 1rst quarter
otherwise i dont want him or need him

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Hell yeah.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

The Cowturds signed M. Grammatica to replace him.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

I'm not to sure about this one. He obviously had problems with the Dallas organization, we'll see. I guess I have problems with the Dallas organization as well...lol

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Signing him may come in handy for the NFC championship game this year. Wouldn't that be sweet to have him kick the game-winner after he has his kicked blocked by us to keep our playoff hopes alive earlier in the season. Sign him for vet minimum. Just do it! Don't analyze; go with the gut. Do it. Doooo iiiiiit!

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

how about we dont sign a choke artist?

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

If you can get him for vet minimum, hell yes sign his sorry ass up.....NOT!

I mean he is better than Novak, but dont you think he is gonna want more money?

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

No i think hes going to miss more field goals in situations where kickers have their chance to shine

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

I think we need to sign him...he'll come on the cheap...prob want to get back at the boys (but might not want to play for a 4-7 team)..but might not have a choice...

novack- god bless his UMD soul- ain't cuttin it.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

I say sign Vanderjagt then take Vanderjagt and Novak to the experimental wing at Johns Hopkins. With a little genetic manipulation we can create a new kicker called Mick Vandervak who will have a strong accurate leg that can kick in the clutch

sounds like a good idea.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

he couldn't be any worse than novak, and is probably better than him on kickoffs (i cant really remember), which we desperately need help on. our opponents are starting at the 35 constantly it seems

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

MV's kickoffs aren't that great either...

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

can vanderjagt get it past the 15?

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

yes sign this guy....for god sakes if you must pump out the money do IT NOW! Novak go home!

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

There is a reason Dallas cut Mike Vanderjact lets leave it at that, we dont want their trash anyways

That and mother fin special teams isnt freaking hitting....I say we pick up some pro soccer player...they are the best kickers... wait wait....How bout the ageless andersons what are they up to cause they kick better than these guys!

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

13/18 isnt THAT bad, thats vanderjagt's record this year. novak is 5/10...

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

HELL YES WE SHOULD SIGN HIM!!
He's had an off year and he's still better than anything weve had since Lohmiller

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Novak is horrible.

Sign Vandy and have Frost kick off.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

hope we neve rneed him to hit a clutch kick

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

[quote=Redskin;251755]hope we neve rneed him to hit a clutch kick[/quote]

True, but he's still much better than Novak.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

If you can get him for a decent price, pick him up NOW. Let's not forget how great this guy was. A coach like Parcells isn't exactly the type of guy to get a kicker back on his game. I think Gibbs will help him out a bit and he has always been accurate before.

Exactly! Fg kickers are like starting pitchers, the can get hot and cold. Does anyone remember David Akers when he was here? He wasn't terrible but he wasn't the probowler he his now.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

we already let go of an over priced, injured kicker. why pick up another?

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

You should sing him this is the dumbest move I've ever seen drop the best kicker in NFL history yes his in a slump but drop him for GRAMATICA come on you sing Gramatica as a backup and keep both for insurance you don't drop him

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

just rotate him and novak depending how clutch the situation is >_<

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

I think wee should pick him up, I would love to see him come in and make dallas pay by being a great kicker for us.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

He is the most accurate kicker in history, yes he missed vs New England in the playoffs and didnt do well in Dallas, but who cares, he didnt like the situation, whatever. Hes better then what we have and he can kick to ball to the goal line. We havent had a touch back in ten years it seems...

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

what cap hit did the cowboys take my cutting him? couldnt have been cheap

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

1.6 mill

best ever? um, no - he played in a dome and he ain't clutch. vinetari is ten times the kicker vandy is, and he can kick off himself.


that said, it would be a very good signing, considering.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

ok man the Second best kicker there

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

i'd still take akers or longwell or possibly rackers or wilkins over him. maybe he has nice stats, but best ever doesn't matter, it's who's the best right now.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Most of Novak's field goals are never down the center. I don't think he's that accurate. Another thing, his kickoff is pretty short...always on around 5 or 10 yard line. I can't recall a single kickoff into an endzone by Novak. Whether it's Vanderjagt or someone else, I think he should be replaced.

Re: Cowboys Release Vanderjagt
 

Sign him in a second. Novak is killing us.
