Redskins Sign K Billy Cundiff, Release Gano

those Gano jerseys probably half price now, pick yourself up a couple

:FIREdevil


:cheeky-sm


Bought 5 already!



Funny as it may, it's not even that I'm a huge Gano supporter, but I just don't like blaming people for things they can't control (blocked kicks) or when the talent they bring in is not really any better. My issues still center around the ST coach.

Gano's development was stunted by the lack of a Red Snapper on the roster.

word, I think Danny has done a decent job...his punt/kick coverages are very solid, I dont think he has had great kickers or punters talent wise to work with in his tenure. Id say he has had below average returners as well. I still think Banks can be special, even after last year. Sav is the best punter we've had in a long time and last year had a really good year.

Cundiff is the right choice in my opinion because of his consistancy within 45 yards. 3 points in our offense is extremely important and we need something we can count on.

I'm on page 4, old man.

Achsually I r was just holding back. I haz whole forum on one page. lolololloolllloolllol. COME AT ME BRO> BRO COME AT ME!

Cundiff=Suisham

Shanahan will find out real quick when Cundiff can't make 50 yard or longer FG which Gano could.

simple solution to our kicking situation:

i think cundiff stays as our extra point specialist
we sign rackers for field goals ≤ 49 yards
we sign gano for kickoffs + fgs > 49 yards

HATE this move. I'm not doing any work today.

God help Cundiff if he misses some of those <50 "layups". I will smack him down over and over in the smackdown thread.

B.Cundiff 46 yard field goal is No Good, Wide Right, Center-N.Sundberg, Holder-S.Rocca.

Stats, numbers, percents, etc... can be manipulated any way to either sound good or bad.

Look her it is manipulated to sound like Cundiff is good:

6. The best kicking leg in the league: whacked. You can look it up. Over the past two years, Billy Cundiff is a 90 percent field goal kicker inside the 50 (53 of 59), and no other kicker averaged more yards per kickoff (69.5) or had more touchbacks than his 84. But the Ravens, bugged more by his 1-of-7 from 50-plus in the last two seasons than his crucial miss in the AFC title game last January, cut him Sunday. They prefer to save $1.5 million on the cap and go with a four-year kickoff man from the University of Texas, Justin Tucker. Risky move for a Super Bowl contender.


Bottom line; Redskins said we need more accuracy inside 50 yards then we do outside of 50 yards. They are rolling the dice. They want to make sure they make the layups and take a chance of on their 3PT percentage. That is what Cundiff gives them over Gano.

0-1 as a Redskin

B.Cundiff 46 yard field goal is No Good, Wide Right, Center-N.Sundberg, Holder-S.Rocca.

I can already see Cundiff is going to have no slack here eh?

Who says Gano would have made it? Or Rackers?

Gano and Rackers would have both made kicking backwards and launching the ball with the back heel of their weakside foot.
