Chargers should at least bring him in for a workout Sturgis choked when the game was on the line even though the Chargers would have had to do an onside kick & recover to stay in the game still we need a money kicker if Bailey is healthy? They need to sign him period I can't believe I haven't really seen this on any Chargers forum

We have one member that is pulling for that, but realistically, Sturgis has a 2 yr contract, and the Chargers are loathe to paying out. Bailey might be the 2nd most accurate kicker, but the Cowboys lost a couple of games that might have had something to do with kicking last season. Bailey is going to get signed, by someone, but probably not the Chargers if he hasn't been in to tryout by now.

There was a reason he was released:
Dan Bailey's FG% dropped from 93.8% in 2015 (best season) to 84.4% in 2016, then dropped to 75% in 2017.
Evidently they did not believe he was automatic any more. Not sure about Sturges yet, but while it was a tough kick, it was disappointing to miss it.

I know were all wringing our hands over the kicking situation, but I'm not going to drop a guy after 1 48 yard missed kick. That's hardly an automatic for any kicker.
The game was not lost because of that missed kick.The instant reaction to drop him seems to have more to do with our anxiety as fans.
The more logical reaction is to drop the trash that is Travis Benjamin haha
