While Gano has stuggled as of late, I'd rather give him a chance to prosper as a Redskin than let him get away ala David Akers. He's still young and seeing how he bounces back over the next 3 games will go a long way in projecting his future.
Mark Moseley, 1982 NFL MVP, is regarded as one of the best kickers in Redskins history. His career FG percentage? 65.6%. Chip Lohmiller, kicker during the back half of the Gibbs I era has a 71.8% career FG percentage. And while the kicking game has evolved over the last 30 years, the Redskins have gone through their fair share of mishaps and shoddy kickers (Ola Kimrin, Jose Cortez, James Tuthill). The Redskins kicker with the best career FG percentage? Shaun Suisham.
All I'm saying is give the young kid a chance. Gano has a booming leg and will get better and tougher with experience.
