Graham Gano has to Go !!

skinsguy · 12-30-2010, 11:50 AM

Mark Mosley wasn't exactly Mr. Automatic in the early going either. No reason not to bring in other kickers and let them push Gano, but no reason to cut him either. Apparently he's going to have plenty of chances to kick game winners in the coming season.

I think we're going to keep him around. His leg has won us 3 games in OT this year. That's a pretty big deal.

Yeah, young and full of confidence. We might have something here maybe the next great one, he might be ours for the next 20.

Yea I was reading some of the early post by our Redskins fan experts who wanted to fire Gano. I'm not surprised Redskins fans are so impatient and always looking for the quick fix to win. Wake up haven't we learned that there is no quick fix and short cuts to success. Gano is young and has potental let him learn on the job so when we do improve we have a solid vet kicker.

Funny how the Gano haters are pretty silent whenever he hits a game winner. For those who say that he didn't do much, his 48 yarder against the Jags was with a stiff cross breeze where he had to practically hit the ball wide right, and let the wind draw the ball back in. Not an easy kick, especially from that distance, and Gano executed it perfectly.

Another bad miss. 30 yard straight on shot, difference in the game. Would be nice the way we through money around on crap players like Fat Albert we would try to find a punter and kicker in the offseason.

htownskinfan · 01-02-2011, 07:20 PM

damn,cant believe no ones hit this thread yet,Gano with another miss,easy one too
well I was late,somebody did.
Bad thing is,I dont really want to cut Gano unless we can sign Adam Vinateri or someone like that.
This team just has so many needs where to start

I was watching some college football the other day and they were talking about a kicker thats good enough to go early. I'm not saying take a kicker in the first two rounds, but if he's that good, I would in the 3rd.

Bingo.

Keeping him was just another stupid coaching decision in a pretty long list.

mooby · 01-02-2011, 07:29 PM

Yeah sorry Gano but those 3 points from that chip shot really would've helped when we were down by 3 at the end of the game. We left points on the field, not just because of the missed field goal but also because of the turnovers. We could've won today, the defense stepped it up in the second half other than Hall whiffing on the Manningham touchdown and we could've had this one.

Not really. I mean it was a meaningless game and thanks to Gano's galf the team was able to keep it's pride while not moving to far back in the draft. Of course it's safe to say that he's gone.
