Bears just made it to the playoffs last year with a wack kicker.
Every team doesn't have a bomb kicker. Sorry no a kicker doesn't determine how far a team goes, especially teams that put up bunch of TDs like KC or the Rams. Of course you want one that can get the win in tight situations. But there are too many teams that made the playoffs and won the super bowl not depending on a kicker. You are probably too young but the old 49ers were one of those teams.
Dude doesn't want to be here, so you would rather kiss his ass and beg him to stay?
Even though he is willing not to come in at all? It's best to move on.
