LOL.. 
I know you must have meant Eddie Pineiro, not Gonzales
Anyway, I agree with you. Pineiro is a VERY accurate kicker. Always has been. I'm not sure about his current contract, but I know he's not being paid like a top kicker. Maybe that's by design. Maybe the business side doesn't believe a kicker should be paid. If Eddie could add another 5-7 yards of effective distance, I don't think anyone would argue with paying him. He's just a smaller guy and doesn't have the leg strength to kick from 55+ yds. If he could hit a couple from 58-60, it would eliminate most of the doubters.
