I hate kickers almost as much as I hate QBs not named Mahomes. However, it should be pointed out that Gould missed one, too.

Call me when he ****s up a playoff spot or causes us to lose a post season game because he missed an XP. I'd take him over anyone, because he's clutch as **** and eats pussys like Red Dawg for breakfast.

Reluctantly Janski but even he let us down in double OT.

If the two point conversion rate is 50 percent or higher than go for it almost every time. More points over the course of a season.

Modern kickers should be more accurate than ever. All the stadiums have about perfect turf or indoors now.

It’s not the same as back in the Jan Stenarud days when they kicked in the dirt and mud.

If our OL proves to be elite in run blocking, then I’m all for it.

If our offense has the threat of the run in that situation, I’ll take our offense to pick up a few yards all day.

My history as a Chiefs fan makes me leery, but I generally trust Butker.

That said, in all fairness to Butker, I don’t want games coming down to him either. When we have a QB like Mahomes and the offense that we have, I would much rather they decide the game on their own and not leave it up to Butker. But, obviously, part of that comes down to coaching and play calling. So that part, at least, is out of Butker’s control.

Xp's are important. Big difference between a 3 and 4 point lead late in the 4th. With that said, Butker is awesome. Glad he's a Chief.

(Call your golf doctor. -Mitch Holtus after failed XP)

Happy to have him!

According to NL's Youth Foundation website, "Nick was inducted into the Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Fame in 2009 as the most accurate kicker in NFL History, the Chiefs All-Time leading Scorer, with the most field goals in NFL History when he retired from the NFL."

So, if Nick was the most accurate kicker in NFL History in 2009, then ol' Janners wouldn't be the most accurate in team history, right?

:rolleyes:
Yes, they are so important that the Chiefs should cut Butker because he missed a handful of XPs last season, none of which directly impacted the outcome of any game. That way KC can go after a PK that statistically is significantly worse than Butker when kicking FGs (because literally that's all that's left out there) because that guy MIGHT kick 3-4 more XPs per season.

Pure genius.

Glad you nitwits don't have a say in how they run the team . . . :clap:

There’s no way that’s true. Nick Lowery was an 80% FG kicker for his career. That means he missed one out of every 5 FG’s he tried for the Chiefs.

Surely, the Chiefs have had someone over 80% for their career in KC? You would think, anyway. Stoyo, maybe? Although short lived. I guess it did say ‘as of 2009’. Pretty sure Succop, Santos and obviously Butker, have all surpassed that % in their time with the Chiefs.

But no way was he the ‘most accurate kicker in NFL history’ as of 2009. That’s misinformed.

Ol Nick was accurate till you needed one really bad:thumb:

Lol. I am glad we have him. I just don't like kickers in general. They **** up in terrible times. Ask the Vikes back in the day. Ask the Bears from a few years ago. Ask Bill's fans. I don't want games coming down to Butkers leg. He has missed in big games.

Every ****ing time.

I'll never forget the one in Miami. I was...STUNNED.
