| I spoke with Bruce DeHaven about the kicking competition between Olindo Mare and Brandon Coutu. Here is the transcript of that interview:
All the really good kickers in the league have to have a sense of self-confidence, almost arrogance. So anybody that is good enough to win this job probably is petty confident they are better than the guy who was here before him.
One of the things I liked about Brandon was his confidence that he is mentally tough enough to kick them. Olindo is a very confident guy. He has a lot to base that on.
On whether other factors come into final decision besides just talent: I would really rather not address that. I really hope to evaluate them based on how they kick. At the end of camp, which one was the most accurate. Which had the strongest leg. Which performed better under pressure when we had them compete against each other. Now, at the end of that, if there is consideration for age money, experience, that is a decision somebody else would make. I am hoping to make the decision based on who is the better kicker.
