Also, who is a better option? The Chargers are using Novak after their kicker got hurt. Do you actually think Novak is better than Gano?

Like I have said, Gano is horrible. And yes, I would take Novak in an instant over Gano, no questions. The guy just cannot be counted on, not even in the simplest of kicks. Dependability is a paramount trait when you kick the ball. He isnt dependable. When your whole team is on edge when you go to kick a 35 yarder, or just a 29 yarder, there is something wrong. He isnt an NFL caliber kicker, sorry. You can defend the guy all u want, but if his ass would have gotten the 2nd blocked fg up today, as well as if he didnt shank the first attempt, then we wouldnt of needed a chip shot game winner. Win the game he did not. He was just very very lucky that we didnt come out of the contest with a Loss in spite of his horrid play. And yes, his play so far this season has been absolutley atrocious. I cannot believe people want this bum retained on this team after the way he has been playing at the end of last year and so far this year. Seriously, I cannot believe there is ONE person defending this bum.
Cut him, likle I said before, there has to be one person on the waiver wire with just as much upside, well, id take an unknown at this point. Gano simply cannot be trusted.
