Just because an experienced, consistent PK cannot kickoff anymore, doesn't call for 40ish Matt Stover to be released. The true test should be whether or not he is not making as many FGs as in previous years. In that regard he is still doing fine. I seem to recall George Blanda kicking FGs at the age of 44 for the then Oakland Raiders. Big mistake!
