YoloinOhio Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) He hasn't done anything yet at camp. Jordan Gay has looked decent from what I have read. I'm worried about Money Man. Hopefully he gets cleared soon. We may not have a franchise QB, but we do have a franchise kicker. And we will need him.

Matt in KC Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I have thought one of the main reasons we have carried two kickers may be that Carpenters leg wears down after a full season of kicks. He was great when he could focus on just FGs. I wonder if he is being held out for that reason, if we might carry only him this year. Has anyone heard any specifics about the injury? It is only intuition at this point, but I think Rex let's vets sit in preseason if they aren't on the bubble. Does he have that reputation?

Tsaikotic Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I saw field goals being kicked the other day when I was @ camp, but didn't see who the kicker was...just assumed it was DC...was it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 DC will be fine. It's a long camp and he is a seasoned vet. It is important for him to take his time in order to save his leg for the playoff/Super Bowl run. Why not let Gay handle the camp reps and let DC come along at his own pace.

YoloinOhio Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 I saw field goals being kicked the other day when I was @ camp, but didn't see who the kicker was...just assumed it was DC...was it not?no, must have been the KOS Jordan Gay. Carpenter is still on NFI list. I have thought one of the main reasons we have carried two kickers may be that Carpenters leg wears down after a full season of kicks. He was great when he could focus on just FGs. I wonder if he is being held out for that reason, if we might carry only him this year. Has anyone heard any specifics about the injury?

Does he have that reputation? they said he "tweaked a hamstring" in the offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Camp is for guys who need to (1) make the team or (2) learn a new scheme. Carpenter's made the team and he knows how to kick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikie2times Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Carpenter will be fine and we sure as heck need him. For a kicker one of my favorite Bills. The way he ended the Lions game last year, very hard kick, had already been hit with the laser before. You could tell he felt nothing other than wanting to send 70,000 fans home in tears and he did.
