Gano to start on Sunday

Of course.  Me too.  If the game is on the line, I root for the Panthers to win, for sure!

I don't really want to root against Gano.  Would like to see him succeed somewhere else.  But at this point, I'm ready to move on, and don't like this kicker drama dragging out.  Don't think it is good for the team.

Agree completely. I'm not going to root for him to miss a critical kick or anything, but I'd prefer an inconsequential miss and a pink slip then to hold my breath for the rest of the year every time he goes up.

Coaches do not want to go into the year with a rookie but have no confidence in gano

if we really want him gone, one missed kick is all it's gonna take....then we have the rookie

kickers have to live with pressure...big part of their game...look at Bryant down in atl....one of the best in the NFL 

Yeah, can you imagine the pressure on the Rookie Kicker if they said he was the one that was going to play week 1. It would be for sure failure. I can't root against a Panther player to fail, but lets say the Panthers are up by 10 late in the 4th Quarter and they are trying to extend the lead to 13 with a 40 some yard FG and Gano misses it I won't throw my shoe at the Television. :)

At worst we still have a roster spot open when one of them are gone

coaches have the same confidence level in gano that we do

one missed kick Sunday and he is gone

So is that cap space that could've been used for DB help, Norwell, or Star.  Dadfugginggummit!!!!!!!

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
