Not any longer.

Take a hike Jeff...and take Randel El with you.

Another disgraceful performance against the Patriots.

Not quite to that point with Reed, really frustrated with him, but he has been very actuate in past years. The lease is getting very short with me though...

I agree with Randell El, I was excited when they signed him, but all hes done is drop passes.

You forgot to add a name to that list and that's Gay. He was the factor for giving up 3 TD's and just shits the bed every season.

Nothing to lose now.

Im a big Reed fan. Many fans kept telling me that he sucks this and that , now Im starting to beleive it. Can you imagine if he did that in the playoffs ??

But, but.......he is clutch. Clutch kickers are worth millions. What about not caring that he cant kickoff deep or that he likes to be a tough guy to the cops when drunk??

I never wanted to tag a kicker and was hopeful that Leigh Tiffin or Brett Swenson were gonna be brought in to compete with him in camp. See ya later Jeff.

I have never bashed Jeff Reed ever, not after baltimore, not after New Orleans, not after last year's terrible games, but after 2nite I can no longer sit here and defend him. He's the Shayne Grahm of the Steelers.

Reed has definitely kicked his way out of a job next year. If the Rooneys weren't such loyalists, they'd cut him tomorrow. Kickers have been cut in mid-season for far less than Reed has done.

I'd be bringing in kickers ( and punters) by the busload tommorow for tryouts. Probably wont find one that's any good and worth gambling a season on, but maybe it would light a fuse under our two kickers asses!

I've been one of Reed's biggest defenders, mainly because of his ability to kick at Heinz. But I've seen enough. It's time for him to go. Mainly because of his beard. I didn't think it was possible for him to find a worse look than this:

I always liked tiffin in college, but with reed being reed I never even entertained the thought of wanting him to be a steeler

I would love it now!

sorry jeff, but your time has come

supposed to be kicking to get big money, glad they didn't give in on a big payday for him

Yea sorry skippy ... thanks for the memories but being clutch at Heinz was pretty much what made you. You are not that anymore. Cutting him now probably isn't realistic. Not many teams have luck with Garbage pile kickers.

This basically sums up Gay's season. Actually, his career.

Yeah, we're not having luck with the non-garbage pile kicker either, though.

Amazing that Shayne Graham was unsigned until last week. Gee, did I ever mention him as a guy who was better than average who could kick at Heinz and could be had for cheap? Nah, I must not have.

Be that as it may, that scenario doesn't exist anymore. Besides, at least Skippy can kick extra points ... well so far anyway.:pray:

On a side note, Shayne Graham may have kicked the ugliest non-bad weather field goal I have ever seen. That ball should have been euthanized after the game for humane reasons.

It is hard to believe how his kicking has turned around this year he really sucks. I don't see him getting a new contract with us next year.

It's the beard!!! It's gotta be the beard, or possibly that for a kicker he's just lost it.

And I'm sorry but once the kicker loses it, it's difficult very difficult to get it back.

At least he didnt miss an XP :chuckle:


But seriously jeff needs to leave...2/6 from 40+ and 15/22 total (68.2% which btw is 32nd or LAST in the league) just isnt cutting it

He's the worst kicker in the NFL right now and should be cut. Thanks for the good years Skippy but we can no longer count on you to do your job.

Nothing against him he has done great with the Steelers over the years, but sometime you have to move on and the Steelers as well as Reed surely are ready to go their separate ways.
