Fantasy football, Metromix style

K: Nate Kaeding (San Diego Chargers)

Amazing how much difference a great kicker can make. You figure they spend a disproportionate amount of game time either drinking Gatorade or calling up their stock broker, but when the special teams call comes down the line, it’s always do or die. Imagine a margin of error confined to the eighteen-and-a-half feet of space between those far-off yellow goalposts. Nate Kaeding excels in these kinds of situations—he even played last season’s final five games with a fractured leg. The Chargers are poised for greatness this year, and Kaeding will undoubtedly find his way into a number of nail-biting situations.
