Kicker?

Gano might actually be washed if his knee inst right. What a predicament.

It's going to be hard for a kicker to compete with the ghost of Kasay in this fan base.  In the minds of many he had only 1 bad kick(what a fuging bad kick tho).  Gano is what most kickers are and why most fan bases are nervous as hell when they attempt FGs and XPs.  I agree that he is paid too much, I also wish we had kept Butker for the contract alone.  Its obvious Hurney/Rivera feel more comfortable with a vet, this is where we are right now and the past can't be changed.

it can’t be understated how valuable it is to have a kicker who can attempt 60+ yard field goals in games and actually have a chance as well as consistently kicking the ball out of the end zone on kickoffs. 

The contract is a mess but we could do a lot worse. Let’s hope his leg is ok.

Agreed, Frank Beamer could win a lot of games..... until they played a ranked team.

They did win a lot of games under Frank, which is why they have the longest bowl game streak in the nation. Are they an elite team? No. Are they a solid program with good college prospects? Yes. 

Oh, and Ohio State won the national championship in 2014 with just one loss. To Virginia Tech. At home in Ohio.

To that point Slye hit a 55 yarder with plenty of room to spare.

Agreed and it’s more impressive that it was done in Chicago. Hard field to kick in. Slye was definitely impressive last night.

What's not to like about your backup kicker performing well, and on the road no less?

I'm going to be extremely blunt about this, but only losing franchise fanbases Stan for an overpaid kicker. Some of you need to maybe reflect and reevaluate priorities. This isn't Jerry Richardson's Panthers anymore. Ya'll can ride off into the sunset right along with Gano if you like him so much. Deuces.

I'd say your job on the line and any future opportunities is about as much pressure as there is

For a camp body kicker who's a total long shot to make the team that's as much pressure as he's probably ever had to kick under. That's him creating film for another team if not ours.

I say keep the new guy. So far he looks good enough to me. Trade Gano to the Bears.

Gano slumped a bit after the NYG game last year, and isn't worth that money.

I don't really care for Gano on a personal level, either.

[TheRed]

Gano's first order of business after a bad game is to go around blocking fans on Twitter.

That really says all you need to know.

More Joey S please.
