Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

[quote=Mattyk72;636732]18 of 21 on the year is pretty damn good, however the 3 misses were killer, I understand that. The timing is just odd. The team is going nowhere, why not cut him after the season? Maybe this Gano kid is a find... but I have a feeling we can add kicker to the offseason wish list. It just feels like a scapegoat kind of move is all.[/quote]

When all you do is get paid to make a kick during a football game then you better well make them. Defense and Offense players battle all game and sometimes it comes down to a game winning kick to decide after both teams played their butts off while the kicker gets to watch them. If he can't make the pressure kicks than he has to go now. Next season we can not continue to have a kicker that chokes under pressure and short kickoffs. He blew 2 kicks against Dallas and 1 against the Saints which would have been enough to win the game.

The answer to your question is 4 and considering that Florida, California and Texas are where the best football players come from, one would think it would be a good thing to have players from the sunshine state.

The U: Portis, Moss & McIntosth

FSU: Gano

How about Gano. Booming kickoff's and successful FG attempts is a good way to impress your new team.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

good showing from him, kickoffs were great, field goals were good from 40 +

I heard the coaches were upset with him, because they were calling for short kickoffs and he kept booming them.

My Rolaid consumption has been reduced dramatically.

GANO MUST STAY...Kids bank ok?

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

[B]Kickoffs were beautiful. Inside the 2-goaline/endzone and inside the leftside numbers. Left no room for the returner to run.[/B]

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

Gano looked good, he's got a really strong leg. Let's hope he can keep it going.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

Yes, Gano did well. He'll have some more "pressure" kicks in the next couple weeks.

We tried too many Gators a decade ago...learned our lesson. :D

[B]Gano=Won[/B] in spanish. I like the meaning and see good things with him.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

Looked great, FGs were right down the middle, kickoffs were great. Goes to show you that these guys are interchangeable - and you don't need to think about them too much. Drop them when they suck.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

wanted to draft this kid bad as hell ...

thankfully we eventually got him and i hope the best for his future, glad the chance he got was with us

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

I love our new kicker. It feels good to have a kicker with some hang time that can boot it into the endzone who also happens to be able to not only kick 23 yard field goals but 46 yard field goals.

Suisham = Good riddance!

Awesome.

I never understood why there was something like 4+ other kicker/punters taken over him in the draft.

Oh well. We got him now.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

booming kickoffs and making his first 2 fgs=damn good job.Especially the first fg,46 yrds in the rain.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
 

So far so good. Now, on the the #1 move that needs to be made by the team....getting Randall Fail of punt returns.
