Evidently most of you aren't paying attention to kickers league wide, as they are all.missing some kicks. 

And what does that have to do with us finding better?

So if you and others have the same car with the same problems, means you shouldnt get a new car?

Is Gano the best in the League? 

Nope. 

He is better than most around give credit for. 

Good luck funding an upgrade without paying through the nose.

Edit: sorry i got distracted before i finished my post. laugg all you want.

Lets take the number 12. 12 for FGA

23 kickers that have attempted 12 FG attempts or more have a better percentage than Gano

I'm really laughing at you thinking we can't find better

What were the distances involved on those made kicks? The reason I ask is that only three kickers in the league have attempted more field goals from 40-49 yards than Gano (he has made 6 of 8, ranking him middle of the pack percentage wise).  Not great, not bad. All of Gano's misses have come from forty plus, and 2 of the 4 from 50 plus, one of those after a bad snap.



 



Don't get me wrong, I would love to get someone better, but there its much easier said than done.

He also missed 2 extra points so don't make it sound like he is only missing the long ones.

Here is the problem with "Kickers are bad across the league" argument.  Rivera, like Fox, will play to win with the field goal.  They put way more emphasis on it than most teams.  That's bad for us, because when you have a inconsistent kicker like Gano, you shouldn't be playing to win with field goals.

This. Our Gameplan is made is such a way were either our offense has to be flawless or we need  Top 3 FG Kicker and Punter and right now we only have one of those.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
