Another game, another miss for Gano

Recommended Posts

Gano actually had a pretty decent game today. Missed one 49 yard kick, but made 2 out of three.

But just out of curiosity, who would you replace him with? I mean its great to say get rid of him, but you actually have to bring in someone to replace him who is better. I would have loved to get Gould, but he is no longer an option. So who?

66% on the day. That should up his FG% on the season.

Oh wait. nvm.

$4m kicker. 

11 kickers are paid 600k or less. 6 are for playoff contenders. 7 of them are more productive than Gano.

The three top paid kickers are Gano, Janikowski, and Gostkowski. They are all below 80%, and they are lucky if they have a season in the 90% range in 1 of every 3 seasons.

A 600k kicker has the same chance/rate at a 90% season as any of the top paid kickers.

Use that $3.5m wasted on a kicker for say a player with greater impact like a CB at the top of the league.

True. We somehow snagged Andy MVP from the Browns, would like to see at least an attempt made instead of Ron chastising everyone saying he's fine despite the opposite.

I've defended Gano for a long time. But we need to explore options moving forward.

Also, it wouldn't be the huddle without someone steadfastly defending blatant mediocrity. It's like some people never learned after the 2010 season. Fug you, and your mediocrity right in the ear. Enough of this settling bullshit.

    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
    • poo I doubt any Bucs fan would trade Baker for BY either lol.
