How about we go with this fact? He did enough to earn this shot. How about we wait until he fails to roast him?

 

You really have become a grumpy old man lately. Sorry to see that.

calling a spade a spade isn’t being grumpy or freaking out

I’m fine moving on from Slye.  Now go find someone with legit potential to be optimistic about.

Yeah, you ain't grumpy. They already brought in one Kicker. I guess you must believe they are done. Right? That these guys aren't willing to upgrade any position at any time? 

 

In the last 2 years the talent level on this team has improved more than any other 2 year span in our history. And we just replaced our Kicker. I think it's only fair to give these guys the benefit of the doubt while they finish building this team.

 

But hey, that may be just me.

We do know things about Santoso.  

He kicked at Minnesota.  He wasn’t a good FG kicker in college…they replaced him on FGs and he only punted and kicked off his last two seasons.  

He has bounced around the league for a half decade trying to kick.  Titans let him be a kickoff specialist for part of a season….and he had a very low TB %. 

why would anyone assume that he can be an efficient FG and KO guy for the Panthers based off that? 
 

He actually made a big improvement from year one of place kicking to year two. 81% FG's, 100% on XP's. I think Minnesota decided to move on because they had lost their punter and had another really good kicker on the roster(was a Groza award semi-finalist in his first season starting).

But this year he has Fitterer who seems to really like to wheel and deal.

Yeah, I think that is just about maybe getting something for basically nothing(Perryman, Little) or the ability to bring in a guy like Santoso in a pinch. Rhule was pretty ruthless last year with cutting people too.

So now you are arguing with me by suggesting they go out and do what I suggested? 

yeah, cutting Slye is fine.  Now go find a kicker. 

Carolina hasn’t earned the unquestioned optimism you run around the board demanding from fans on every topic.
