His name is....Harrison Butker and it still makes no sense to me that Gano and his salary was kept. Harry-But is only the 2nd most accurate kicker in NFL HISTORY!! 

there was a thought at the time that he just didn't have the body to survive in the nfl; that a strong breeze would kill him

and i mean i get it. he's a lanky dude. i saw him kick at georgia tech and he looks weird as hell out there

Anybody with a brain knew what the right call was.  Unfortunately, we had Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney at the helm.

When you mismanage a team for years and years and years...this kinda thing is just part of it.

My read is that it was intentional. It seems like Slye has a confidence issue, so I think they were trying to give him a confidence boost that he was going into the season unchallenged as the starter to see if taking the pressure off would help cure his case of the shanks.

And by all accounts it did not seem to have that effect.

If Rhule, and the Panthers brain trust, really did this, they are dumb as rocks, seriously 

the nfl is always about pressure, performance under pressure, who can withstand it and perform at high level and who can’t 

there aren’t any ‘participation awards…not for kickers or for second year head coaches

We will stick with Slye which is dumb as hell. Pinero definitely isn’t the answer, there is a reason he keeps getting cut.

Coach TempleBaylor will sit tight

 Rhule did not sound vey happy with him after the last game. Sounded  rather ominous.

    • Okay then. To me that means Russell Wilson was Coryell. Because I see the proposition completely in the Russell Wilson punt/pass put it up for grabs mold. Count on the receiver to catch it or knock it down.    And the reason I thought that was the intent with Legette is the abysmal downfield game from 2023. As in, there was barely any.   I look at it as if… the result of a deep attempt isn’t as important as the opponent understanding they have to defend it. So I was all for some 50/50s. Coryell, Walsh whoever.  I do favor the Coryell approach personally but also very much value versatility, it doesn’t have to be strict. Just make the defense defend the whole field, however you do it. It has to include downfield throws.     
    • Sold, or in the process of being sold. Could be either way. Consider this for a second... Last season, our defensive coordinator steered what many have called the worst defense in NFL history.  Canales would absolutely have been justified in firing him, and no one would have blamed him if he had.  But what did he do? He gave Evero another chance to come back and prove he could be better. Does that tell us something about Canales? I think it does. Now apply that to Bryce 😕
    • Canales has never been part of big YAC offenses in the NFL.  That’s not his tree.  Not in Seattle, Tampa or here.  Every O he has been associated with basically has been bottom half of the league in YAC.  That’s what Bryce needs to happen though  2 very different things….and very much gets into why the middle school QB doesn’t fit
