I like the move, I think the Carney/Kundiff experiment showed alot in the playoffs. I think Mare is great to have, he is ONE guy that can kick the field goals and kick the kickoffs into the endzone everytime. Plus that frees up another active roster spot on sunday.

I thought Carney was retiring... apparently not.

To the Faithful of New Orleans:

My time of wearing the Fleur de Lis has come to a close. For six seasons, I have been blessed and privileged to represent the most faithful, loyal fans that the NFL has to offer. This was never so evident than during this magical season of 2006. Monday night football will never reach the pitch and purpose it met on the night of September 25th.

New Orleans is a city regaining its strength and swagger, and the Saints are proud to be leading the way. My family and I have been forever imprinted with the style, culture and kindness of the South. Through triumphs and tragedies, the perseverance and integrity of the New Orleans' people is far stronger than politics and hurricanes.

I leave New Orleans a far better man, looking for a team in need of a wrinkled foot, sure to soon be missing great friends of the South, with the knowledge that my taste buds will always yearn for one more Drago's charbroiled oyster!

May God bless the city of New Orleans. Thank ya'll for the support and class you showed me during my Saint's career. Best wishes and God speed,

John Carney

That letter was kinda sad to read. Much like Horn, I hate to see Carney go. I saw Horn's departure coming a mile away. I can't say I saw this one coming. I wish John Carney all the best.
