Anyone else doesn't fully trust Gano?

[IceWhiteice]

Just dont know with Gano is my saying

i was pissed because this miss was on him and 50 yards in Denver is basically 40 yards elsewhere. but last year he was pretty much automatic, it was our OL on FG's that let him down.

I haven't trusted him in a while.  He is below 50% from beyond 50 yards.  He has also proven to be unreliable in big game situations.  For someone making over 3 million a year, I expect better.  

He's now 10 out of 16 from 50 yards in the last 2 seasons.

Just in comparison, other kickers have been missing easier kicks all day today. Folk and Walsh in particular.

I really try not to be a negative fan (think everything is going to go wrong)

but I really didn't expect him to make that FG- he seems to get in his own head

I think we've been spoiled by some hall of fame level kicking when we had Kasay. If you'll remember back to the days of Gramatica, you'll appreciate Graham Gano's league average boot a little more. Field goals over 50 yards are supposed to be a coin flip for most kickers in the league. You can't be elite at every position. I'm comfortable with Gano inside 40 yards. Plus, there's special teams value in his ability to kick away from returners with as bad as our special teams coverage has been historically.

The more and more I think about it, the more I hope we start looking into the position.  Maybe he'll grow into a clutch kicker, but he's not there yet.  That is the precise kind of kick we needed out of him.  But he continually fails to barely even get the goddamn thing off.  Sure when the whistle was blown WELL before the kick, he booted it through when no one was lunging at him.  But on the real attempt, he rushed it, and was off.  He's just not clutch right now.  But maybe there is an overall plan for him to get that experience and grow into that roll.

All I know is I hope the panthers consider going after a much younger kicker with major potential in the draft next year.. it's time they did so.

[Raskle]

Oh for fug's sake... the snap was high, which threw off the timing. Gano is fine, he missed mostly due to that, as he MADE the one that was.. ahem.. iced by the very late TO called. But I digress... 

 

Leave the guy alone. Everything about that kick was against him, and as a fan, I don't want to be too.

[General_Purr]

I do trust him to get us points on the board during the game. I also think a part of it is the blocking, once they get in his vision or break down the side is when it seems to happen.

All Noles kickers are chokers, and I'm an FSU fan. I didn't trust him Thursday on that kick, i knew he'd miss it, he chokes in pressure situations.

[Carl Spackler]

I'm going for it on every fourth down now in Madden just to stick it to Gano

That'll show the bastard

[Nick_81]

I can't give him too much flack for that kick.  Everything has to be damn near perfect, and it has to happen so quickly.  It's damn tough, and the further away you get, the more perfect it needs to be.  A bad snap throws everything off, so I'd be more inclined to put blame on J.J., although I'm not going to.  The snap was high, and to the inside though.  Similar to last night's game, where the snap was low and away.  Timing and placement is everything.

I have a hard time trusting anyone I don't have any relationship with or know on any level.  That being said he's no Vinitari or Gostkoski
