Change a constant in the kicking game

Green Bay — Five years into his run as the Green Bay Packers general manager, Ted Thompson has yet to fully solve the kicking game. One reason is the Packers have never had the same kicker and punter for consecutive seasons under Thompson's watch. Back in 2005, kicker Ryan Longwell and punter B.J. Sander handled things. The Packers went with Dave Rayner and Jon Ryan in 2006, Mason Crosby and Ryan in 2007 and then Crosby teamed mostly with Derrick Frost in 2008. Do Thompson and the Packers finally have it figured out?
