Gano

It is my impression that on the second attempt by Kam to jump the line that Gano whiffed that kick on purpose and took the hit from him. He easily could have kicked it as usual and had it blocked but instead he stepped into the kick to make sure it didn't touch Kam and took the fall.

 

That is a brilliant flop if I've ever seen one. Someone tweet JJ Jansen and find out if this is a fair assumption. Everyone was wondering how we could let him do this twice and I think that is why.

Gano missed the FG because......

A. He has been missing FG's all season.

Or

B. A safety is nearly on his d**k as he's approaching the ball.

I can't see that ever being designed or on purpose.

It was a nice flop and I'm glad we got the penalty but how did we not make an adjustment after the first block attempt?

That WAS the adjustment. While it seems improbable, he could've have known it was possibly going to happen again and had decided if it did happen that he needed to shank it. I just don't see how he possible could've missed the ball had Gano actually attempted to truly kick the ball. Therefor, I think it was trickeration.

Richard Rodgers - the same coach that didn't make adjustments when we had the first punt blocked in Minnesota. The same coach that other teams admitted they saw weaknesses on film that he failed to correct. The same coach that didn't realize the wedge is not allowed in the NFL. 

 

It is time to hire a REAL Special Teams Coach. Not just a "special" coach.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
