I've never been a huge fan but just heard Waddle and Silvy interview him and he gave a clinic on how to be gracious and appreciative on the way out . No bitterness despite being told at 10pm on a Sunday night that he was being cut. Didn't act like a whiny little bitch like Urlacher. I wish him well.

Hub had the inside scoop on Robbie.
During the last scrimmage before the KC game,Gould hooked 6 FG's
to the right. That's where Hub thought his fate was sealed.

Still better than Barth.

Fox is living in some Denver elevated air delusion with Barth. He hits about 50% of his FG over 40 yards. Think about that in a league where 45 yards is considered automatic

Hub is an idiot. If the Bears were strongly considering a change in kicker way back then, there would have been another guy in camp and in the remaining preseason games.

Hub said that,too. He couldn't figure out why nobody was brought in from game 1 this year.

Career stats don't agree with you.

I believe they thought Gould's last season was an anomaly and he'd turn it around this year..he didn't, way overpaid and a big mouth to boot.. Should have been cut last season.

You aren't cutting the best kicker in your history because he had a bad scrimmage.

Barth better hit pretty much every field goal this year.

With the Bears offense, he might be lucky to get 11 attempts.

Heard LoHo play a Fox clip yesterday in which he referenced how good Barth good was inside 35 yards or something. Shouldn't every NFL kicker be the same within 35 or so? Ridiculous that they're praising him for his chip (Lohmiller) shots.

Should I also rely on Gould's career stats?

That would mean he kicked left-footed.

Stop listening to Hub.

Pretty well spoken guy. Whether you agree or disagree with what he says, he seems to carry himself and communicate pretty good. If he doesn't get on with another team, I look to see him being a regular contributor to a local media outlet in the near future.

I liked Paul Edinger but fell in love with Gould. Kinda sad to see him go.

GO BEARS!!!

maybe the Bears will steal a page from Trestman's playbook and start kicking 50 yard FG's on 2nd down.

He's no Carlos Huerta.

Butthead was better than both.
