Your wrong and thats the big problem. He is missing short kicks.
Gano
24 of 35
20 to 29 yards
8 of 10
30 to 39 yards
4 of 7
40 to 49 yards
11 of 14
50+
0 of 3
As you can see he sucks from 20 to 39 yards which are the ones he should be making just about 100% of the time. I'd give him a break on the 0 of 3 from 50 plus if he was making the shorter kick but he is not even making them. I bet SS is saying "You Miss Me Now". By the way when we let him go his average was around 87% and he has made 13 of 14 this year. The same people that wanted him gone have let Gano slide on his god awful kicking because he is young. I don't get the young part because its not like kicking is different in the NFL from college. If anything kicking in college can be harder because of the wider hash markers.
In his defense someone said he has kicked several KO out of bounds but that has only happend once and he is ranked 15th in those stats.
