Panthers sign kicker Chandler Catanzaro

The Huddle thinks every player or coach that makes a mistake should be cut immediately because a future Hall of Famer is sitting on their couch waiting to come play for the Panthers on a "team friendly" deal...lol.  

Gano has been one of the most accurate kickers on the NFL for the past two years until recently and he clearly has a case of the yips.  This happens to most kickers at some point in their career and he'll either get past it or be without a job.

We're well past "one mistake" with Gano.

Move is obviously terrible in hindsight, but wasn't it reported that Butker wasn't exactly impressing in camp? I thought I remember him struggling. 

I do remember Gano having a better camp but then Butker had the much better preseason.  Money should have overruled the little bit Gano might have been ahead at the time, but it does look much worse in hindsight now.

If you went solely by what you saw in practice, Jake Delhomme probably never would have started.

Gano was a known quantity. It would have made more sense to give Butker all the preseason kicking duties to see what you had in him 

But ya know, Rivera and veterans...

Another reminder of the Butker blunder.

I pounded the drum for butker so hard, tbf it was like a 70-30 split between wanting him and keeping gano. If the camp battle is a toss up, just go with the younger guy who has a dirt cheap salary, would be paying butker less in three years than gano in one. Just dumb poo and a good reason why Marty Hurney needs to go. Ill commend his effort this time around but we need a change.
