I believe he has 2 game winning FG's this year, both on OT. You think Suisham or Jeff Reed would have done that?

That winning kick would've been money from 55. Gano's numerous kickoffs for either touchbacks or pinning the return man on the sidelines were big in the field position game. Losing the OT coin toss was a blessing as we got to drive with the wind when we got the ball.

If we had Suisham,we would be 3-7

Gano haters suck
again,best kicker we've had since Chip

We may have found a new starting o-line. They get my vote. Also Williams ran the ball well and Santana was outstanding.

It's hard for me to figure someone who didn't play well.

SouperMeister · 11-21-2010, 09:17 PM

That was some of the guttiest O-line play we've seen in a long time. I thought that both tackles played a great game, and the interior held up well after Rabach and Dockery went down.

Ruhskins · 11-21-2010, 09:42 PM

Gano, since he scored 12 out of the 19 points. If don't like that, then tell the offense to score more TDs.

Huge props to the o-line though, and they overcame injuries...although I wonder that's why they did so well. Which brings the question...

What is it about our former and current coaching regime that they can't seem to figure out how to improve the o-line? And by that I mean....Rabach looks bad most of the time, yet they sing his praises. I really hope Montgomery keeps the job of starting center.

SmootSmack · 11-21-2010, 09:42 PM

Great job all around, but Montgomery had played C before and Leichtensteiger has played all along the interior, yet Heyer has never played G so props to him for stepping up. Keiland did great as well. Kyle called a strong game, and Galloway had a huge 20 yard catch plus got his 700th career reception, passing I believe Gary Clark on the all time list.

Keiland Williams...RB of the future? I know that a Shanahan defense doesn't have a feature back, but if this kid keeps playing the way he is playing, he might keep the starting job. I sill wish him or Torain had CP's pass blocking skills.

We still haven't seen Davis, I'm very curious about him.

With Chad Simpson out, he might be brought up from the PS.

I think it's a given, they should have brought him last week. Simpson seems to be made out of glass.

Not trying to argue but Williams left a lot of yards on the field on several of those runs. He did his job, don't get me wrong, but he is a placeholder and is not even close to being a bellcow.

I agree, but he's certainly proving his worth as valuable guy to have around for depth.

Fully agree. I'd really like to see a little more of Banks in the coming weeks. He barely played on offense and yet made a HUGE play.

The O-line scabs did a phenomenal job. I couldn't believe it. I'll never bench Santana (or Steve Johnson for that matter) for Wes Welker in fantasy again this year.

And in general I tip my hat to the entire team for their fight today. After being totally demoralized and emasculated on national TV just 6 days ago, they dealt with a short week and won a tough road game with tons of big injuries.

Definitely an important win. We got beat to shit last week, but we showed a lot of resiliency today.
