I think I'd much rather have thier "Idiot Liqoured up kicker", rather than keep our "Idiot Liqoured Up Kicker."

I still remember this....

"Here we are," Manning said. "I'm out at my third Pro Bowl, I'm about to go in and throw a touchdown to Jerry Rice, we're honoring the Hall of Fame, and we're talking about our idiot kicker who got liquored up and ran his mouth off.

"The sad thing is, he's a good kicker. He's a good kicker. But he's an idiot."

-Peyton Manning-

Keep Seb..... Let him pop a pill and take a shot of JD before each game, and he'll have a great year....

Vand +50-66%, +40-79%, +30-91%, +20-97%, +10-100%

Listen I was thrilled when we got him. But maybe we can bring him in to give Jano some serious competition. To say hey your about to go out the door.

romeo13 I agree. Jano should be kicking off and the ball go through the uprights. Something isn't jiving.

hes better but why work ourselves up to get him over Jano?? theres no reason for it

It's not a bad idea, but I'd hate to get into the vicious cycle of hiring and firing unemployed kickers. I hope Jano can get back on track.

Well I'm not getting too worked up over it. I just happen to see it and thought I'd throw it out there. Its just that anything over 40yrds I hate to cross my fingers its not wide right.

**bambino2678** · 01-10-2006, 06:42 PM

why not

**MasterShake2388** · 01-10-2006, 06:45 PM

ive never had low faith in Jano as a kicker, but this year I lost complete faith in him! I was very disappointed in him this season... but im a man of 2nd chances, im hoping that Jano can rebuild my trust in him as a kicker next season if not I say get rid of him!

**coloradoraider** · 01-11-2006, 08:24 AM

Lets cut Jano, and forget about Vanderjack. The guy we need to get is Ryan Longwell, who will be a free agent this offseason.

a guy who missed 11 FGs when he was at Jano's stage in HIS career! makes no sense, Longwell bounced back and now we want him so why cant Jano bounce back?

Im sorry, but a lot of Janos kicks werent far kicks. He had a ****ty year, but he has a horrible attitude and a bad work ethic.

Agreed.
