Graham Gano is becoming a problem

[csx]

Gang is what he has always been. Nothing has really changed.

Remember we resodded the field. Also it was raining a bit. Graham will be fine.

Graham isnt a problem when he kicks touchbacks on most all his kickoffs though.

With some of our epic collapses  in the second half of the game, they need all the points they can get. Can't leave any points on the field (this includes wide open td's also). Seems that Gano misses one for everyone he makes lately 

No, he's at 80%  (16/20) and 3 of his 4 missed attempts were in our 1st two games when there were several blocked kicks.  He'd been perfect on FGs ever since until last night.

Here are the FG stats for us and all our opponents so far this season:

And as for PATs, Gano is 24 of 26 for a rate of 92%.  Our opponents are 13 of 16 for 81%.

Oh and Kickoffs for Touchbacks. 

Gano led the league in 2014 with a 74% touchback %.  He's currently 13th in the league this season at 62%

So, no, his stats are not leading the league this season, but they're average to above average, and I'm fine with that now.  You take away those blocked FGs early in the season, and Gano would be 18 of 20 on his FGs (90%)

We're in the top 10 in average FGs made per game - an average of 2 made per game.

We're 25th in overall FG conversion %

But, excluding blocks, Gano is 13th.

He's becoming a problem literally barely a week after he nailed two big FG's in the rain, in overtime, in primetime?
