STEPHEN GOSTKOWSKI RUMORS

Sebastian Janikowski Named Top Placekicker on Bleacher Report's Top 1,000 List, Stephen Gostkowski Ranked at No. 6

While quarterbacks are praised for their ability to deliver in clutch situations, that's nothing compared to the pressure that is placed upon field goal kickers. Whether it's an extra point, or a game winning 50-yard field goal, a good kicker can be the difference between a glorious victory and devastating heartbreak, just ask the New England Patriots and the Baltimore Ravens...

Stephen Gostkowski Looms Large Considering Patriots' History of Close Super Bowls

When Stephen Gostkowski walks onto the field during Super Bowl XLVI, he won't just be walking under the weight of his 6-foot-1, 215 pound frame. He may very well be carrying the entire weight of Patriots Nation on his right foot, the hopes and dreams of a franchise and fan base waiting and watching his every move. Every Super Bowl of the Bill Belichick-Tom Brady era in New England...

Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski on being the potential hero or goat: “It’s something that you sign up for”

It’d be hard to understate the importance of having a competent kicker come playoff time, especially when you’re the New England Patriots. Twice did Adam Vinatieri kick a game winning field goal in the Super Bowl. His first came in Super Bowl XXXVI to lift the Patriots over the St. Louis Rams and again in Super Bowl XXXVIII, two years later, to left the Patriots over the Carolina...

Patriots K Stephen Gostkowski looks back on his game-saving “oh crap moment” … and links!

The way he is pictured here is usually how we see Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski. Ya know, kicking. But he was in a little bit of a different light yesterday in the 27-24 win over the Dolphins. In fact, Gostkowski may have saved the game. Down 17-3 in the third quarter — before anyone knew a comeback was coming — Gostkowski kicked off to Dolphins returner Clyde Gates...

Patriots K Stephen Gostkowski describes “the worst feeling”

One of the under-the-radar failings by the Patriots came at the end of the first half. Kicker Stephen Gostkowski flubbed a 27-yard field goal attempt, just his fourth miss from between 20 and 29 yards in his career. Afterward, as a true professional, he talked about it. “Bad kick,” the former Pro Bowler told me. “Don’t know what else to say. Not a very good job...

Gostkowski slump continues

By Jim Donaldson Patriots kicker Stephen Gostkowski, who had a bad game last Sunday in Pittsburgh, continues to struggle, pulling an almost-automatic, 27-yard, field goal attempt wide left just before halftime.

The Pats, after driving from their own 9-yard line, had a first down at the New York 11 with 55 seconds left in the half and appeared about to break...

Patriots K Stephen Gostkowski says of the on-sides kick: “I wish I could have it back” … and links!

Late in the loss to the Steelers, the Patriots attempted an on-sides kick. There was 2:35 left, they were down six, and kicker Stephen Gostkowski attempted the dribbling kick, not the one where it bounces high. And the result was a disaster. Not only was CB Devin McCourty off-sides, but the kick didn’t travel 10 yards. It was our play of the game. Yesterday, I talked with Gostkowski...
