from 20-29 chase is 4-4
30-39 3-3
40-49 Chase is 5-9. Yes 5-9
50-59 1-1 Too small of a sample to say he's consistent from long range.
From 20-39 Hauschka is 3-3
30-39 4-5
40-49 7-8
50-59 1-5 Yes 1-5
My point here is Chase isn't any better that Hauschka. In fact where it really counts(40-49), he's been inconsistent. Hauschka doesn't have the leg Chase does, but he's a lot better in the 40-49 situations. Chase isn't any better than Hauschka, so I doubt the staff will let emotions get the better of them. If they can find a better kicker, fine, but Chase isn't it. It was really amusing how this board wanted Chase after kicking a FG in the Seahawks game only to lose that game with a shank. Did Hauschka miss in the Browns game? Sure, but Chase lost a game the same week and isn't any better. I'll take the consistency in the 40-49 range over Chase's shaky showing. IMO Chase isn't any better than what we already have.
