If Martin Gramatica can kick like he did before he went into that slump, I don't see much of a dropoff in the Patriots kicking game.

     I remember when both of the Gramatica brothers used to be known as "Automatica."  Bill, I can understand with that absolutely laughable injury to the knee while dancing over an extra point.  Bill was never the same after that, now he's in the Arena League.  Martin's slump I never quite understood how it happened, I don't recall him ever getting injured.  I guess one season he just started sucking for no apparent reason.

Martin just had a bad year. He missed a few key kicks for the Bucs, so they decided to pin things on him. Honestly, things on sepcial teams were very messed up that year. Two kicks were blocked in one game I believe (I think it was the Panthers). He still can be automatic. It's just that no other team took him.

I remember Bill Gramatica's season ending ACL tear injury very vivdly.

It was against the Giants, @ the meadowlands.  He kicks either an XP or a chip-shot FG, and starts going nuts.  The fans start immediately booing the antics.  Then he jumped up in the air to celebrate, and when he landed, he dropped to the ground, rithing in pain while holding his knee, to an outburst of laughter from the capacity crowd.

That's what that POS gets for jumping up and down as if he won the Super Bowl.

It's funny how Martin started slumping the same time his brother did.  Although his brother had an excuse (the knee injury). 

Let's hope he can break out of it.
