RuntheDamnBall Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) As for Lindell, I wish him well. He is a good guy & a solid kicker. But I never completely trusted him in the clutch. And it will be nice to have a kicker who can kick past 40 yards. It's a weapon the Bills have been missing for years. This is about how I felt. No hard feelings for the guy - he was a solid if unspectacular contributor and the letter is a really nice gesture and measure of the man. But you need an edge and if Hopkins can provide that by extending the team's FG range, they have to take it.

thefootballexpert Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 He was a class act and will be missed. Great kicker who holds many Buffalo records. It's a shame football is the type of business you can't play when you are old. Every player gets replaced eventually. Wish him the best and hope he catches on with another team.

stevestojan Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Says a ton that we root for a team who's two biggest losses for the fans in the last few years have been our punter and our PK. That said, Lindell is a stand up Buffalonian. It goes both ways. Do you think Lindell was hated the second he was drafted like Whitner (Peters is a different story)? Why should players be classy when fans aren't? As for Lindell, I wish him well. He is a good guy & a solid kicker. But I never completely trusted him in the clutch. And it will be nice to have a kicker who can kick past 40 yards. It's a weapon the Bills have been missing for years. Specifically the year known as January 27, 1991. Year? Hell, that day has lasted over a couple decades in my brain. I apologize for bringing it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
