BuffaloSol Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 If you have watched the games every week you would bot be calling for this kids head. That blunder last week can not happen more than once or twice a season sure but the kid is a rookie. He has noticeably gotten better every week and given us a chance to pin teams inside their own ten a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 The bigger question was the poor tackling from the other ten players covering both punts and kickoffs. They need to clean it up. I’m hoping they work on it this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Fischer Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I assume this is troll job or someone looking for attention but here's a reply: The two long punt returns were due to poor tackling not because the runners had a clear lane. The first game muff is excusable and had little/no bearing on the outcome and the muffed FG is a rookie mistake. IMO, he will be a long-time, better than average punter.

Success Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 He’s been great - one bad play. It’s awesome to finally have a guy who can boom it over 50 fairly often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 23 hours ago, DabillsDaBillsDaBills said: It bothered me when the announcers said Bojorquez has the most punts inside the 20 and is doing a great job yesterday. My personal opinion is that he has been pretty bad so far this season. Bojorquez is a little below average in terms of yards on punts (18th) and is perfectly average on net yards per punt (16th). After week 5 he has the 2nd most punts inside the 20. How could a punter with stats like that be bad? Simply put: hang-time, turnovers, and the Bills dreadful offense. He is dead last in hang time. That speaks for itself. A 48 yard punt with no hang time that gets returned 50 yards is not a good punt. We've given up 2 huge punt returns due to a lack of hang time that's resulted in FG's each time (Ravens and Titans game) He's also directly responsible for 2 turnovers. The fumble against the Ravens in week 1 in the rain has been mostly forgotten (the game was laughable by that point anyway). The "fake" FG yesterday is the dumbest thing I've seen a punter do in quite some time. He pulls up to throw the ball and quickly realizes that he's the only guy on the Bills that thought the call was for a fake and puts the ball back down to try and have Hauschka kick it (who cannot kick at this point as his timing is screwed). How does Bojorquez realize it's not a fake in <1 second and react that quickly to put the ball back down? I think he just completely panicked on that play. Lastly, the Bills dreadful offense. It's really easy to have a lot of punt yards when your offense is 31st in yards for (much longer field to work with). He has the 31 punt attempts (2nd most) in the league including 7 from the opponent's side of midfield. A punt from the opponents 47 yd line that goes out of bounds at the 19 is not a good punt, even it counts as an inside the 20. Found this little gem in a PFF article grading special team units through week 4: SPECIAL TEAMS RANK: 18 Special teams was a big reason they played above their metrics last year, and their regression there hasn’t helped much this season. New punter Corey Bojorquez has the lowest grade at his position group so far, accompanied by the lowest average hang time. He is a Punter. Want a Solution. PLAY BETTER OFFENSE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing that happened to Coleman, the WR they traded for from the Browns. They gave him 1 or 2 games then dropped him for someone else.

Then signed to the Pats PS. Then eventually released. Then he either worked out for or got signed to another PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Apparently we worked out Brad Nortman and Drew Kaser...so maybe they are looking to upgrade or light a fire. Or maybe his shoulder is screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch his punts against Seattle on MNF, legit cost us the game. It is possible for players to improve over time. Kid never got to punt in preseason and is still figuring out his coverage team here. Rex's last year - when that Seattle game was - was Schmidt's worst season. And he was still better than this clown. 12 hours ago, Klaista2k said: Didn't we sign that punter from Seattle John Ryan?
