Dopey Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I seem to remember some FSU fans saying he was strong at directional punting (Ramius maybe?) anyway here is a link that kinda confirms that became a proficient rugby-style punter, improving his directional accuracy while limiting returning opportunities Maybe it was Ramius, but I live in Tallahassee and watched him punt for the Noles and thought he was pretty good at the directional punt. Hope it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 This sums it up perfectly Captain.. unless you feel differently and somehow more confident with DeHaven calling the shots? That 80 TD by Mckelvin and 32 yarder on sunday sure did suck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Wow! I did not see this coming at all. Moorman is getting up there and getting a new punter seemed likely in another year or two, but not like this. So long Brian. You were our MVP for one of the worst decades in Bills history. Sorry we couldn't get you to the post season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Wheels Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Performance trumps sentimentality in the NFL. I'm glad the Bills aren't willing to stay married to their mistakes, but they would have saved money by cutting him in the preseason while giving Moorman the chance to hook up with another team before the season started.

AC4 IN ATL Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Could this move possibly be injury related, and we just dont know about it yet? It's strange timing and Moorman was punting very well in the Preseason and then for some reason, the last few games has really struggled. Has a team ever put a punter on IR? Just trying to make some sense of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Syracuse Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I wonder if there wasn't something more to the punt in the Jets game that was returned for a TD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 If Powell is the guy, I'm all for it. I think he's going to be a good punter for a long time. Thanks for the great years Moorman. You'll go down in Bills Lore as a fan favorite and will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) NFL.com story is still tied to La Canforna's twitt. Where's Shifty Schefter? His rumors are pretty solid. Edited September 25, 2012 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumbalaya Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Powell has a much better future and it was wrong to risk him by cutting him in the preseason. I was surprised this did not happen four weeks ago. This is also Lindell's last year, IMO. Younger more lively legs will beat out old more expensive legs. That being said, Moorman gave it everything he had for a long time. Edited September 25, 2012 by jumbalaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 This may only be me, but I have very little confidence in DeHaven. Even putting aside the Music City Miracle, he doesn't seem to be in the same league as Bobby April. I only say this because I wonder if DeHaven had a say in Moorman getting cut, or if Moorman's failure to execute DeHaven's calls (e.g., directional kicks) influenced the decision. My hunch is that this is probably closer to the truth. The two never had a great relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
