Not sure I would have pegged him a Pro Bowler. But I certainly remember being :poo: on pretty hard when i said he was the safer option over a rookie and that he has been more consistent over the course of several years than not. Look at him now. Proving me right and whatnot.

Gano is 1st in the league in field goal percentage (96.2%) and touchback percentage.

Since when do they count touchback% for pro bowl votes or kickers in general?

Either way Gould has made 36 FG ten more than Gano, and has actually made multiple 50 yard FG’s. Gano hasn’t made a single 50 yard FG this season

Wouldnt how many you kick be based on your team? Some teams score TD's instead of FG, some score FG's instead of TD's.

Graham Gano - 25/26 FGs, 0/1 FGs 50+, 32/34 XPs - salary $3,200,000 (contracted through 2017)

Harrison Butker - 31/34 FGs, 4/5 50+ FGs, 23/23 XPs - salary $465,000 (contracted through 2018)

Who here believes that Pro Bowler Graham Gano is going to be willing to take a pay-cut to sign a new contract with the Panthers after this season?  I don't.

Who here believes that Hurney/Rivera are going to be more than perfectly willing to pay him even more than he's making now in the future to retain him?  I do.

      I just mean it’s always offsetting in that situation.  I didn’t realize they called another penalty

      And as I asked this again before, what goes into PFF's man open %, as I know you've brought that stat up before. Is that just the number of routes he gets open at any point during the route, or is it calculated on targets and if he was open when the ball got to him. Because like I pointed out so many times in the lead up to the draft, a big reason it was harder for him to get separation against man was because he not only had his man on him, but he was double or triple teamed on the majority of his routes this past year.  Just because of that alone, it was easier for him to get open against zone coverage where he could find holes and sit in them. Also, again, as been discussed so many times, his QB's play this year was awful, and lots of times his contested catches were due to him not delivering the ball on time when T-Mac got open.  Or just times he got open but wasn't targeted for whatever reason. So just using that stat as a way to say he struggles to get open against man is more likely than not, disingenuous. Hell, it's a PFF stat that you're using against him, yet at the same time, PFF absolutely loves him, he was their 4th overall player.   I posted this clip on here a week or so ago of the T-Mac vs Hunter game in 2023, where the anti T-Mac guys like to say Hunter shut him down.  But numerous times in this video you see T-Mac create tons of separation from Hunter but the ball wasn't thrown his way, plus a clear PI that wasn't called (and the one that was). https://x.com/4MR_Fetti/status/1918262063660454227 The "he can't separate" narrative is way overblown and become something more myth than reality.  No, he's not an elite separator like some of the quick twitch WRs, but he's so much better than the haters here like to say.
