Looks like the vaunted Steve Gostkowski has the job, unless St. Tedious Brusci puts aside his efforts on behalf of world peace, walks across the Charles River, and becomes the greatest placekicker in NFL history.

Martin got hurt at one point also though and he has never been the same.

He didn't hurt himself celebrating a kick, that was his brother Bill. Bill blew out his knee after jumping to celebrate a FG while he played for Arizona.

Martin Grammatica suffered an injury to the muscles in his abdomen that went undiagnosed. He kicked through it, but was awful. He has surgery a year ago and is now healthy.

Grammatica kicked well in camp and was neck-in-neck with Gostkowski, who also has kicked well. I wish him well, but the kid has shown a very strong leg and looks good, so the Pats kept the 4th round pick over the vet.

According to them, Steve Gostkowski has been looking pretty good, and apparently he hasn't missed a field goal or point after in the preseason so far.

I know, it's not the same as a real game, but the kid has been doing well so far, and they are giving him the chance...

If there's one person who's decisions deserves the benefit of a doubt, that would be BB. Us bills fans should know best of all. Remember Drew and Milloy? :ill:

Milloy had a couple of very good years for the Bills, not sure what you are talking about there.

But they were all good, and I'll take that.

The kid has a monster leg. He will at least make a big difference on kickoffs, which should help the defense because opponents won't start with good field position after scores.
