1) Introduction: My my, what do we do with Mason Crosby. On one hand, Crosby had one of the biggest meltdowns for a kicker of late. On the other, fans tend to forget that Crosby was a good kicker during the beginning and end of the season and his problems really only manifest themselves during the middle of the season.
2) Profile:
Mason Walker Crosby
Age: 28
Born: 09/03/1984, in Lubbock, TX
Height: 6’1″
Weight: 207
College: Colorado
Rookie Year: 2007
NFL Experience: 6 years
Career Stats and more:
3) Expectations coming into the season: Crosby had perhaps his best season in 2011 with career high 85.7% success rate on field goals; however it could be said that Crosby was often never in much pressure to perform since the Packers that year were a offensive juggernaut. In 2012, with the offensive sputtering, the team turned to Crosby more to keep the game close and at least in the middle of the year, it definitely seemed to effect him.
4) Player’s highlights/low-lights: Crosby’s h...

1) Introduction: After the disasters that were Derrick Frost and Jeremy Kapinos, Tim Masthay was a godsend. While Masthay will probably never be known for his big leg, Masthay’s forte is his accuracy and his “Aussie style” punts. Much like long snapper Brett Goode and Mason Crosby, Masthay was also the recipient of a contract extension this year, a 5-year $6.005 million...

Jeff Saturday has spent 14 years on the NFL and this pro bowl will be his last. The center who snapped the ball to Peyton Manning for 12 of those 14 years plays in the NFC for his final season. In the Pro Bowl Saturday switched teams and lined up with the AFC team just so he could snap the football to Peyton Manning one last time. This is something I have never seen in the pro bowl...

According to the Green Bay Press-Gazette, the Packers will likely extend quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ contract this offseason, instead of waiting until his contract is up after the 2014 season.
The reason the Packers should get a deal done now instead of waiting is because once the Ravens extend Joe Flacco’s contract, it’s going to raise Rodgers’ price, since he’s a better...

Veteran kicker Mason Crosby missed a career-high 12 field goals this season
I was among Mason Crosby’s biggest defenders during his first four solid but unspectacular seasons, but after watching him Tom Birney the ball all over the place in 2012, I’ve had enough. It’s time for a change.
I thought Crosby finally jumped from average to elite in 2011. The former Colorado star...
