GREAT nfl kicker. From Lock Haven, PA.

I think he was 29-29 in playoff FG's in his career. He also gave no ****'s. There are videos of him pre-game practicing amongst the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, kicking over opposing team's warm-ups, etc.

Shame that he’s retiring. It’s one of those free agency catch-22s He’s so reliable that he feels like he deserves big $$$, and that’s certainly understandable. And yet his age and salary demands meant no takers among NFL teams. I can guarantee one thing... the first team that loses a playoff game due to a missed field goal will have fans screaming, “They should have picked up Robbie Gould!”

No doubt, one of the worst moves EVER by the Chicago Bears was letting Robbie Gould go.

Glad he was so successful afterwards. No doubt, hall of famer. IMO of course.

I remember that game. I'm a Green Bay Packers fan (despite living in HELLINOIS) and was really torn when Gould kicked the field goal and won it for the 49'ers.

Really happy for Robbie Gould, in part because that field goal was rubbing Bears fans noses in their teams stupidity in letting him go. Very sad for my Packers because they lost.

I remember him in Chicago. He did a great job for the Bears.
I hope he enjoys retirement.
