Is Jon Kasay

Eeehh no, that's still John Kasay.

Gano is capable of hitting from 60 and missing from 40.  Luckily we got the good side of the coin today.

At this point all of Gano's stats are better, both regular season and playoffs, and he's been just as clutch if not moreso. Kasay deserves his honors, particularly for his role in Smitty's maturation, but Gano has earned the nod.

No he hasn't. Gano usually chokes under clutch situations where Kasay usually was money. Kasay is one of the best kickers in NFL history. Without him in 2003, we wouldn't have been in the Super Bowl. Gano has cost us playoff games. Kasay has also made 43 50 plus FGs while Gano has only made 19.

The best asset a kicker can have it to be clutch. Kasay was one of the best in league with the game on line. And in his prime he was hitting 50 yarders all the time.  

If I remember right Kasay didn't start out as an exceptional kicker. He grew into it and I think it may be what we are seeing with Gano. He's had a great year. He's got a bigger leg than Kasay but I still think John is better right now.

I didn't take anything away from Kasay and Kasay choked sometimes too... are you forgetting that same Super Bowl? Does Carolina get to the Super Bowl in 2015 without Gano and his multiple game-winners?

I'm not a Gano fan and I'd have to say he's a better kicker than Kasay was while here.

 

We had to waste an active roster spot to f'ing field two kickers. Kasay also lost us the Super Bowl.

You're a moron if you think he lost us the Super Bowl

      Anyone else think we’re getting too hyped

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster.

      Say what you want, but last year Bryce gave Carolina the best QB-play we've seen a very long time. A very long time. Often with rookies at WR and TE, and a RB not known for his receiving abilities. There is much reason for optimism with added weapons, and consistency/ chemistry on the offensive line and coaching staff. Now if the defense can get to average instead of a heaping lump of dog doo, this team should win a lot more games. This season is a turn the corner season. Next season is the year to press the accelerator to the floor.

      I hope after last preseason our 1st team offense sees at least a few more snaps.
