Getting rid of Joey Slye was a bad idea as well.

Letting Butker go and keeping Gano only to replace him with Slye was moronic.  Why waste a pick, even a 7th rounder if you weren't going to give him a legitimate chance.     

We let a big leg go so we could keep an accurate kicker only to replace him with a big leg only to replace him with an Accurate (not so Accurate) kicker and replace him with a questionable kicker.

Who is you favorite Panthers kicker?

Kasay, but the data bears out that he sucked in the clutch too. And he did have the worst day for a kicker I've ever seen in the first Panthers game I attended live. We lost to the Eagles that day by 9 and Kasay left 10 on the field missing three FGs and an XP. We did go to the SB though... where as we all know he proceeded to miss the entire field.

The data does suggest Kasay was worse than Gano in that one simple exercise undertaken by Football Outsiders...

...that said, the data-set is laughable and the exercise has holes in it large enough to drive a Mack truck through.

It operates off of an arbitrary definition of a fairly vague term but you have to have firm definitions to create a data set. I don't have an issue with it. I suspect your issue with it is that it shoots big holes in your preconceived ideas.

    • True, they still have to prove themselves all over again.  Some could have bad years or get injured.  However, the Panthers just signed the lone first round QB in the worst QB class in a decade plus.  So calling the '27 class mid at the moment is the face of the Kenny Pickett signing is like convincing yourself the 2am last chick in the bar is just as good as the model your buddy took home hours ago.
    • Half my section was obnoxious Pittsburgh fans last nite. I'm not sure I would have held it together if the Canes lost. You're in someone else's house, they gave you a free bobblehead- regardless of your jersey- just sit down and watch the game and don't talk sh!t.  "Go back to Connecticut, you Whalers!" is as imaginative as it got. "You can't call a penalty on Sid the Kid!" It was a challenge.  In a relative sense, the blue line was excellent last night. Kept the puck in the O-zone and the Canes owned the offensive end of the ice thru 2 periods. Slavin gave up a breakaway, Nikishin turned the puck over once or twice, but it was a far better effort than what we've seen recently. Sure, it should have been a 2-3 goal differential, but Freddie stopped nothing in the 3rd period. But he was a wall in OT- Pittsburgh had their shots in OT.  And, it goes without saying, the officiating sucked. Malkin took a dive and slid halfway down the ice until a whistle was blown and Svech catching an extra 2 minutes was complete bullsh!t. The refs did everything they could to keep Pittsburgh in the game. A good way to start vacation. Headed to the Caribbean for a solid week of nothing but beach time and good food & drink for a week. Will be back at the NJ game on the 28th.
