I really like this decision. They give Cundiff a chance to try out for another team (hopefully in Canada, eh?) and give Tucker the chance to gain more game experience in the last preseason game. The stadium erupted in cheers for Tucker on Thursday night. Surely, the fans are behind him 100%.

Cundiff won't be in Canada. He will be playing in the NFL.

I'm sorry you don't like me, but you are delusional if you think Billy is a "great" player. That term is reserved for those who earn it. Billy is a "great" guy and an OK kicker. Period.

You do the man no service by saying things that are just not true. Peace.

Too bad the Steelers don't have a need for a Kicker. Would be awesome to see Cundiff miss chip shots for them!

I actually saw a Steelers fan on NBCsports.com's messages board asking for just that. Lets hope he gets his wish.

*Does the river dance* Awesome! Welcome aboard, Tucker. I'd tell Billy to kick rocks, but he'd probably miss those too. I'd wish him luck, but not after his comments in the locker room after the Jacksonville game.

Well if the Steelers signed him, he would probably be an upgrade for them. Is that what you want?

What great news! I am surprised it happened so early, that really shows a boost of confidence in Tucker by the coaching staff. good tough decision by staff!

I hope not, because revenge can be one helluva motivator.

[RavensAllTheWay]

For the record, he won't [i]just[/i] be remembered for that miss. At least not by us Ravens fans. After a pro bowl season in 2010, he struggled mightly last year, and his numbers from the 11 season are more of a telling story of what his career has been as a kicker: rocky.

Tucker simply beat him out for the job. Congrats, Josh and good luck, Billy.

I heard the Steelers are going to sign Billy to play Right Guard

Cundiff doesent need swag. He has a baby face. Did you know he played QB in high school!? He was a lady's man I tell ya.
[/quote]

I'm sorry but a baby face is not attractive... at least Billy's lol

[BigMike]

I must say, it will be a little scary having a rookie kicker. Hopefully, that fear goes away after he hits a fewkey kicks during the regular season. That all said, I think the front office got it right again. No looking back now.

Welcome aboard Tucker!!

[SunnySkies]

Tucker will get the job done!

Glad to see the better kicker got the chance to start. I feel bad for Billy, he must think about that kick everyday. It started a snowball effect that has changed his life forever.. If you think about it, it all comes back to the kick. He didn't get cut for having a bad training camp.. the coaches just trust Tuck more

Fast fact: Steve Haushka signed my ball and I didn't hesitate to call for his release. lol

[RavFan01]

I am so glad Tucker won the job. I feel like Cundiff doesnt realize that kick in the AFC Championship game was bigger then he thought. You dont miss a 32 yarder in high stakes like that and then cry to the press like a child about not playing in a preseason game and get away with it. Cundiff will be on another team within a week, so I wish him the best. Tucker looks awesome. Go Ravens!!!!!

[baltravens]

Now Justin, just consistently hit your field goals.
Hurray, he beat Cundiff out!!!

[jimmypowder]

i guess Billy "I'll take my services elsewhere" is
gonna take his services elsewhere. Hopefully to the Steelers.
LOL! 56% field goal sucess in away games last year.
