Have Dan Bailey repeat his 2019 success
Bailey had a stellar 2019, but before that, he had looked shaky.
As I mentioned earlier, Bailey had a field goal percentage that dipped to 75% in 2017 with the Cowboys and in 2018, his first season with the Vikings.
His 2019 campaign looked different. He made a little over 93% of his field goals, in addition to over 90% of his extra points.
Bailey is now 32, and there are plenty of kickers who are older than him, but there are also plenty of players who hit walls at later ages. Was Bailey’s 2019 a sign of more to come or a bounce before a decline?
We’re going to have to see how 2020 plays out. If Bailey starts missing, it becomes imperative that Minnesota finds an adequate kicker to replace him. I don’t have to remind Vikings fans what can happen if a kicker misses an important field goal.
