The Green Bay Packers are sticking with Crosby.|||||||
Crosby has missed seven of the 18 field goals he's attempted so far this season. His 61 percent accuracy rate is second-to-last in the NFL. He missed a 50-yarder and a 38-yarder against the Lions. He did connect on a 39-yarder with seconds left to give the Packers a four-point cushion. Crosby says he believes he has to correct his mechanics. He says he doesn't think he's dealing with any type of a mental block.
Crosby made all six extra points Thursday in a 42-34 win over the Saints.|||||||
With Aaron Rodgers leading a high-powered attack, don't expect Crosby to be lining up for field goals too often.
Crosby has agreed to terms on a five-year contract with the Green Bay Packers, agent Mike McCartney tells The Associated Press.|||||||
In four seasons with the Packers, Crosby has made 78.1 percent of his kicks and missed only one career extra point. Crobsy made 78.6 percent of his kicks last year and hit a career-high, 56-yard field goal in the season opener against Philadelphia.
