Mason Crosby: Our own Jason Perone brought up the topic of Mason Crosby earlier this week. Mason and I have a long history, starting with my 2010 piece "Mason Crosby - Mediocrity Rewarded" and a year later, my "Mason Manifesto." Ah yes, good times...
I loved proving to people why Crosby was being overrated by the Packers. They kept giving him raises & new contracts and handing him the job when his field goal average was firmly in the 70s percentage wise. To this day, people still throw "Crosby!" in my face when he makes a field goal and still accuse me of having hated on him and wanting him cut, but all I ever said was that he should have competition for the job.
