Nick Folk, Jets –
With the defense they have, the Jets can afford to play for field goals; witness the Monday night win over Minnesota as proof. No kicker has more field goal attempts, and Cowboy fans have to wonder where the accuracy came from.
Stephen Gostkowski, Patriots –
Shayne Graham and Scott Suisham stopped by Patriots' camp last week, and it wasn't to help Randy Moss pack. The only kicker with an accuracy rate as shaky as Gosty's 57% is Garrett Hartley, and he's already been replaced once. You can stick with Gostkowski now that New England's bye is behind them, but be ready to hit the free agent pool if the shanks continue.
