Well, technically Lawrence Tynes is the worst. Gano is 31 of 32 in terms of accuracy.

FedEx is a tough place to kick in. We may never find someone that everyone is 100% happy with.

speaking of kickers, i have a hunch cundiff is on hgh. since when did he consistently boom them for touchbacks.

imo gano has done enough with his long kickoffs and has made some decent pressure/length kicks to have some sense of job security. Also, at least to me it seemed we had consistent kinda off-target snaps at the beginning of the season.

gano has done just enough imo for us to not be having a kicker debate, but one bad game or kick and i think it is ripe for discussion.

at least gano has a strong enough leg to go 50/50 on fgs 50 yds or longer. i remember with suisham, gibbs would either go for it on 4th or punt rather than trot suisham out for anything 50 or longer.

it is what it is at this point, subject to change at any time. not great but better than most other options.

I mentioned only one was worse than him earlier, but hell 31 out of 32, pretty much is the worst in the league. If FedEx is tough to kick in, then he better step up the game because he kicks there 8 times a year, maybe more if we make the playoffs. hell, even the guy that kicks in pittsburg is better than gano, and Pittsburg is like the worst place in the NFL to be a kicker.

Reed in Pittsburgh is just 1 percentage point higher than Gano at 73%.

Plus that guy is the only one not named Mike Vanderjagt to earn the honored distinction of being called an idiot kicker. He was the true originator of sending girls the cock shot, unlike that copycat Brett Favre. He even has a douchebag haircut and a reputation for being a cocky asshole, despite not even being an elite kicker!

C'mon now, give the guy a break. He is the best we have had in a long time, and a young guy to boot. Do you really want to pay top $ for an aging vet kicker, when we have so many depth issues to address to make this team a true contender? You have to give him a whole season of work to evaluate him anyway. What if he goes like 11-13 in FGs the rest of the way? Are you going to still call for his head on a silver platter?

He'll have to show some signs of consistency later in the year because I'm about to die if he misses more of those critical FGs that could have cost us the game.
