Just stop kicking FGs and XPs.

The Steelers convert 60% (6 of 10) of 4th downs. Boz makes 62.5% (10 of 16) of FGs. If we just go for it on 4th down instead of kicking, and end up with half as many TDs, we'll end up with more points in the end.

Same with XPs. If we convert 50% vs Boz's 88% accuracy on XPs, we'll score more points.

We don't have to go get another kicker. Just stop kicking. It's an easy fix. And we'll end up with more points.

The season is pretty much in shambles. It's certainly worth a try. There's really nothing to lose. But with the way our luck is running, our 2 pt conversions and 4th down conversion will likely plummet to a 5% success rate.

Highly possible that we lose-out.
