Butker and Tucker both play on super bowl contending teams while Gano is with the Giants who are so offensively limited they can barely compete in the East.

Do you think there is a difference in the pressure of kicks between those teams?

Absolutely, you are 100% spot on.

Chiefs kicker has ZERO pressure because everyone knows Mahommes can come out and score massive points in no time just like he did against the Browns where he stacked up 2 touchdowns in 3 minutes of clock time last week...

...Giants NEED every point because they suck -- Gano faces MAX pressure...

...Buttkisser faces NO pressure 😆

But they're not. It's only about kicks that can tie or create a lead. Regardless of the actual points scored, those kicks are basically equal. 

3-pt kicks count more.

I get a kick out of the dolts who sweat the occasionally missed extra point...

...me personally, would rather see them miss the 1-pointers!

It doesn't matter when the data set is only considering kicks that are to tie or for the lead. For all intents and purposes, those kicks are essentially equal. You're trying or winning if they're made, you're losing if they're not.

69-for-70 from inside 50yds in last 48-games...

...is that good enough for you?

Yeah, all but one season his team sucked. Par for the course. I'm not saying he's a bad overall kicker. He's a GREAT kicker on kicks that aren't clutch. He's one of the worst of the past three decades on kicks that are clutch. The data bears it out.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
