Panthers cut kicker Santoso

Kind of feel bad for the guy since he didn't really get a chance but with him missing that extra point and a 7th round pick being on the line we couldn't afford to keep him around. That pick might not seem like much but sometimes that can be the difference between making a trade in the draft to move up or for trading for a person you want.

Yeah, cutting Gano without a legit replacement or even fuging plan was a huge botch job.

It was a major botch job, For all the flank people here want to give Gano he's a good kicker and it is just salt in the wound that we drafted a guy that is a top two kicker to replace him and lost out by trying to stash him.

Yeah, it was beyond dumb. The decision to try and stash Butker when he was our future plan, rather than just biting the bullet and cutting Gano then was just beyond idiotic. They tried to have their cake and eat it too and ended up with no cake at all.

A young kicker would have gave us more options, but because we snagged Zane G. from a practice squad we have to use a roster spot on him for at least 3 weeks, even if we cut him prior to 3 weeks- he takes up a spot. So most likely he's our guy for a while.

You can bench him but you can't cut him prior to 3 weeks on the roster.  Same difference I know but just wanted to clarify for those new to football.

    • I don't really care as much about athleticism and arm strength.  While Murray might be better in that regard, I think Bryce has enough of both to do well in the NFL. The main reason this trade reference is silly is the money and the fact that Murray has been around a long while and hasn't proven that he can perform consistently when the game is on the line.  Bryce has shown that he can play well in the clutch (in the few opportunities he has had).  
    • If Bryce can continue the level of play he showed after the benching, then there's a good shot we at least compete to win the division. Tampa is a solid team but even last year in our week division they went 10-7 and will be on their 4th OC in as many years. The Saints are a mess and are in a mist of a half rebuild half still trying to compete mode and will probably be starting a rookie QB. The Falcons are a wild card as they have a really good offense but are we really crowning Michael Penix as a franchise QB after just 3 games?  The only thing I want out of this season is for Bryce to come out and without a shadow of a doubt prove he's our franchise QB. If that happens then most of the fanbase would be happy and I believe we'd be in a good place record wise at the end of the season. Maybe falling just short of winning the division with a chance to sneak in as a wild card team.
