Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
I dont feel bad. Suisham has had more opportunities here than most kickers would get from one team to wrap up a job, permanently. He is a streaky kicker and that is what a team does not need. You need consistency and stability. Hopefully, Gano can also boom the kickoffs better.

The bottom line is, we may have won the last three games in a row if Suisham makes some kicks. Many kickers in this league are on a week-to-week basis as far as job security, and apparently Suisham is one of them.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
Thank Goodness. Suisham had his chance, hopefully the new guy is adept at making chip shots.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
Suisham got paid for that missed kick.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker

I can think of a couple of game checks he should not have been allowed to collect |

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
I feel bad in the sense that if your going to get rid of one person who made a mistake "supposedly" costing the game then you might as well be fair and get rid of the others as well.
Other then that....Suish was a decent kicker not a great kicker. Basically he was a band aid. If this guy works out and can crush the ball good. Maybe we've solved one problem we won't need to fix for a long time. Hopefully we will be able to spend more quality time looking into OL, QB, RB, and LB. |

Like that safety that got burned not once but twice for TDs...but you can't get rid of someone you pay all that money for. Seriously though, #30 needs to pick it up and quit throwing himself around recklessly and biting on every double move. |

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
He'll be fine until he misses, when he does he'll get the bus too. Feel bad for Suisham, the guy was perfect for twelve weeks straight, but in this league you're paid to make um.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
I'd rather this guy be trying out right now since we're so far out of the playoffs it isn't funny...

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
A3-9 football team releasing it's kicker with four games remaining in the season may be a first. I don't know that I remember anything like that happening before. Could have, I just don't remember.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker
Well if he lives up to his hype then we have a steal. He has a few actual live games to get a customed to the NFL and for us to evaluate him prior to next season. Like I said already if he works out then maybe our PK spot is set for several yrs and all we have to worry about is OL, QB, RB, and LB.
