Well if Gano hadn't of missed that Extra Point, Cam could have been kneeling for the win on that final possession. 

Yeah. Or Brady could have marched down the field anyway and converted to tie the game.

I’m sorry but am I the only person on here that isn’t super petty or clingy with ex-Panthers players?

why does an ex-practice squad kicker even matter?? They don’t 

please quit being childish, thanks!

Has little to do with an ex Panther. Has everything to do with know it all fans. Clearly you missed some of the conversation.

I know...you are supporting Gano....who I hope is great this year.  Bet he does not miss another extra point.

I certainly hope not. He has some redemption to achieve most certainly but I know he has been more clutch than not in his previous years. Some folks have a short memory and the awareness of such was the intention of this thread.

did you not pay attention to how bad he did last year?

the guy missed 8 last year and we lost 6 games by three points or less.

he's been pretty far from money the past few years, even in 2015.

the team wasn't comfortable going into this season to the point they actually drafted another guy and even then couldn't really commit to him until after the season had started and even then it was a tentative and tepid commitment wanting to keep butker around on the practice squad.

you can't blame fans for being, shall i say, less than enthusiastic about keeping this guy around, especially considering the cost...he's the third highest paid kicker this year. sure, he's 10/10 so far this year, but don't go saying "i knew he was going to be this good" when there was absolutely no indication that he would be anything close to this kind of reliable based on past performance.

And if he proves his worth by season’s end? Crow then?

if he goes the whole season without costing us a game? maybe. if he goes through the whole season not missing a FG or an XP, sure. but less than that, probably not.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
