Phil Hansen Forever Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 If Lindell can't play, and provided 4 points this past game, what are we going to do in Big D without him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeMonkey Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 They probably sign someone for the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandemonium Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Norwood is probably still in town. Maybe they'll bring him in for a tryout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eSJayDee Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Moorman is fine for KOs. He handled them early in his career. His one KO this game was fine & I defy any ANY kicker to have as an effective onsides as he did (I was very surprised by that; I doubt it's something he practices much.) However, I think we do need to sign a FG kicker if for no other reason than Moorman is our regular holder as well. (Though I suppose if you're using a new kicker, ~75% of the reason to retain the old/regular holder is gone.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want him lining up for a game-tying/winning FG, though. Â GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 He is a kicker, and the injury seems to be to his hand. Â last time I checked, a place kicker didn't really need to use his hands much. Put a nice cast on the hand and send him out on the field! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see how a hurt shoulder could effect a kicker's ability. Â GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) It could effect his follow through. I hope its nothing serious Edited November 7, 2011 by figoferreira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebug Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 How about replacing him with someone who can actually kick the ball far enough to get some touch-backs. Then, when he comes back from injury, he can just kick field goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drey Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Who do they cut to make room for the new kicker if they sign one? (assuming they don't put him on IR). Edited November 7, 2011 by Drey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 How about replacing him with someone who can actually kick the ball far enough to get some touch-backs. Then, when he comes back from injury, he can just kick field goals. Lindell has a strong leg. The Bills like to kick deep and to the corner of the endzone and tackle the returner before the 20 yd line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
