Funny thing is Rivera has seen this up close and personal with the Chargers. Nate kaeding had an 87% FG make rate and a 99.4% EP make rate during the regular season over 8 yearss with the Bolts. Put Kaeding in a Playoff game and he is lifetime 8 of 15 and definitely cost his team Playoff wins. Now you'd think a guy with those regular season numbers would get signed somewhere else when the Chargers finally blew him out for his clutch kick failures.

Nope, League wouldn't touch him with even a 1 year contract. Come on Ron, remember what a bad kicker can do to you and your team.

Great point.  I too remember that debacle.

Gano got the yips.  Some baseball catchers suddenly can't throw the ball to the mound.  Knoblauch got 'em.  This guy got 'em.  Once you get it, you can't get rid of it.  Gano got to go.

Knoblauch was a 2B who had the yips throwing to 1B.  Same with Steve Sax.

Hey guess what? We lost by a field goal. Guess who missed it? Gano. That's never happened before :D

Cutting Gano will be poetic justice in light of tonights events . Missed kick off the right side upright just like game 1 vs Denver. If nothing else that will fug with his mind everytime he takes a long kick in a pressure situation.

Mark Wohlers, Rick Ankiel, etc.

Gano MUST go

I'm a Cards fan (baseball). I ended up in STL one night and was able to catch a game. Happened to be Ankiel's first game back but as an outfielder. He went yard on his third AB. I was exited for him.

I honestly dont know anything about his previous history before the Panthers. Please elaborate. 

Gano had a history of missed field goals in DC. If you goggle it youtube shows them. They cut him for the same reason the fans here want him gone now. Maybe more so as kicking into the endzone on kick offs not so important now

Yes - we all know that. Gano sucks. I'm referencing your false "Ron didn't want a completion" comment. Because even though you "don't care about practice" Butker also sucks.

Still hasn't missed in the preseason and made 88% of his kicks at GT last season. Seems like when the kicks actually count he makes them. Pretty much the polar opposite of Graham Gano.

I'm just pissed that they didn't give Butker the chance on that one. How can he compete for the job if they won't let him?

That's my main beef. Why does Gano have five field goal attempts in the preseason to Butker's two. Why did he not kick a field goal in either of the last two games. I mean, if you're gonna preach competition, don't stack the deck in Gano's favor.
