What a Tuel

I just read through like 8 pages of this thread where you were trying to school people, its pretty convenient that now at this particular moment, you don't want to derail it. On another note, Diggs wasn't slow but he also got caught from behind on his long passes as well. Maybe it was just me, but I often wondered why we didn't see footrace td passes with him like we do with other top wrs.

The Chiefs had a bye week. Add in the Raiders next week which is basically a guaranteed win at this point and its basically even. So your argument doesn't really hold up. The arguments that "we haven't beat anyone with a winning record" is going to resurface again which is such a silly argument. You play who your schedule says you play. Bills 2-4 Cardinals 2-4 Dolphins 2-5 Jaguars 4-2 Ravens 5-2 Texans 2-5 Jets 1-5 Titans 18-27 Chiefs 4-2 Ravens 3-4 Bengals 4-3 Falcons 3-2 Chargers 2-5 Saints 3-4 49ers (without Deebo Samuel, Christian McCaffrey, Brandon Aiyuk) 19-20 2-6 Raiders 21-26

Ha, my bad 35-35 XPA, eyeballed the wrong line. He hit the game winner though so maybe right call for the Packers? Bass meanwhile went 100% yesterday so maybe the competition did him good.

So the Packers got rid of their kicker and are apparently signing Brandon McManus if that gives you any indication of the quality of free agent kickers. Brandon McManus was 30-37 (81.1%) FGA and 312/321 (97.2%) XPA in 2023. Their former kicker was Brayden Narveson who was 12-17 (70.5%) FGA and 16-16 (100%) XPA

I think they will.

Also the "uncatchable" ball that was "6 yards out of bounds" on the PI call for us. Like no, that ball was not 6 yards out of bounds if it hit the boundary Joe. On topic, it was clearly a fumble, I don't see how people are so adamant that his arm was going forward? He would've released it at the point of the extension if he actually planned to throw it, instead he pulled it back and held on. Clear fumble. Also didn't like our OPI call on Knox I think it was. Kelce does that every damn play and it infuriates me bc he never gets called.

Dudes already planning for 2025 when we are targeting 2024! There's planning ahead and then there's sacrificing now for the "whatifs" of the future.

It isnt, statistically that year he was basically the same in FG % and better in XP % than Butker which was the assertion. Now you shift to "overall" post season stats that includes his rookie season. Postseason Stats: 2020 - 7-9 FG (77%) 5-6 XP (83%) (Rookie) 2021 - 0-0 FG (NA) 9-11 XP (81%) 2022 - 3-3 FG (100%) 5-5 XP (100%) 2023 - 2-5 FG* (40%) 7-7 XP (100%) *Blocked FG Yeah he had a rough time last postseason and missed 2 field goals and 1 blocked. I dont think anyone disagrees that he needs to do better. But then the year before that he was 100% in both FG and XP in the post season. So clearly he can do it. Lets just be happy about Cooper and lay off Bass.

Eh we can go back and forth on his stats. I didnt say he was better than butker overall. I said that he was statistically as likely as butker that year to make that kick in 13 seconds.

Thats my problem. Like when does it become the players fault for not executing? I think it was johnson who fell down in front of Lazard leaving him wide open to catch the ball (with our guys on his back). Track the ball and knock it down ffs.

His percentage on FGs that year was 87.5% (28/32) and 100% for XPAs (51/51) and 2 of his 4 missed FGs that season were in the colts game where nothing was going right and we got annihilated 41-15. Butker that season was 89.3% (25/28) and 95.9% for XPAs (47-49). So in reality yeah going by stats, he probably would have made it that season too if Butker did. The constant berating him is probably not helping his confidence and we arent changing kickers so hold him accountable but maybe try building him up.

I didnt say it was good, but he can make kicks. You guys act like theres a 5% chance he will make a kick. As compared to the other top kickers, sure he is less accurate, but we are talking 1-2 kicks over 6 games. The amount of angst the fans have over this is crazy.

Seems to me he's made 9/12 FGs and 18/20 XPA - counting blocks/tips. So he can in fact make a kick.

Three game difference (Broncos and Steelers and Vikings) vs our (Chiefs, Ravens, Lions). They already lost two of them. To be fair im sure everyone has us penciled in to lose Chiefs and Lions and we already lost to the Ravens, but thats why we play the games, we will see.

2-4 but they are going to go and "probably" win 9 of next 10 or at worst 8 of next 10 😂 Meanwhile similar people are like, "I can't see the 4-2 Bills winning 6 more" 🙄
