If Rhule cuts him, and I like Slye as a person but Rhule will gain major major points. 

And pick up who exactly?  I love everyone calling for Slye's head, buy top tier kickers are not just out there waiting to be signed. 

No kicker is 100%. I personally love his power. 

Butler > Gano. Hurney messed up.

Slye > Gano+ high salary

He misses one out of every three kicks. Even gano was not that bad. Seriously almost any other option would be better.

Slye did NOT look good today.   At the point I'm worried that the PAT is going to hit the upright,  that's a problem.  I think one of his FG was a gift from the refs.  

We need to keep our options open, because I'm beginning to wonder if Slye is the guy.

 

he never looks good

btw...he is obviously capable of making those 60+ ones, but he never does in games

i say he is a gagger...hope he proves me wrong

Gano missed 1 FG last season for the Giants. just saying.  I agree about Gano being overpaid though.

FYI, Crosby and Myers were both 100%.

Off the top of their heads, can anyone account for how many games we lost due to Slye's misses?  I'm not talking about just potential game winners, but also ones he missed throughout the game that would have accounted for overcoming the point differential in the losses?

Half the kickers in the league make $3,000,000 or more...

...seems like people expect something for nothing at the highest scoring position on the field.🤦‍♂️

Injury concerns and a cheaper option is why he was let go.  It is what it is.  The healthier, cheaper option was not the best option though.

Like a golfer with the shanks, his mental state in-game appears vulnerable and weak.  That gives me no confidence when games come down to kicks.

And therefore opponents know exactly what it takes to rattle him, execute it ............ and it works. That is a very big liability.

Don’t kid yourself it was 100% money. 

Yes. Tepper may have tons of miney, but the salary cap is still a thing. The dollars saved releasing Gano went to other free agents.

People seem to forget Gano was also injured a bunch the last couple of seasons

      I'd say or believe the RB room has or will improve. Rico > inches. Then 3rd RB is 4th rounder Trevor Etienne, who we don't know what he bring, should be more than last year and I heard he's got good hands.  All the TEs are young, even back issue Tremble is 24. Evans is a worker and Sanders has been getting props on his body. Sighlt edge points up here too, imo. OL everyone but Motown should be better too, they are mostly OL "young" and that was the first season with the OL coaches. Did you know they have a personal coach for C, IOL, and OTs?? They got three OL coaches on this staff, I don't believe any other team has this method.  You know about the talent added to WR room.  It does come down to BY. If I say BY wins the MVP award, how would that look team-wise??

      The sad part is Panthers SM team was once in tune and godlike with the SM handling.... The only team I can think of that could pull this " leave your mark " is the chiefs. They are in the middle of a dynasty run and win 12 games on a bad year....... terrible move by Panthers. I mean even during the 7-9 years I was able and ready to talk trash with all other teams fan base...... 5-12s, 2-15, 6 new HCs, poor drafting...... I have been locked in a library and my best line is " no comment "..... God dam its been a rough 6 years and now the Panthers gave other teams this "leave your mark" ammo..... They better God dam win.
