dubs Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I honestly have thought CS has been pretty poor since he came back and most of last season. He’s been good at the pooch punts inside the 20 I think, but for some reason the it doesn’t seem like he gets much air and distance on the other punts. Just my impression. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see any other teams in the league switching their punter who averaged 45 yards a punt for a guy that has even a worse average? Players do wonder when coaches and GM's bring in guys who are not very good. Matt Darr is not a good punter and he has not punted in an NFL game since 2016. Move makes no sense. Well, when he was cut the first time...nobody picked him up. He had to wait until a few weeks ago to find work again after we put our last punter on IR. Hes doing something wrong. We as fans won’t always know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was strong pinning opponents back when punting from up the field a bit (say like our 35 or 40) but was not able to flip the field if the offense sputtered out deep. Without hangtime distance means nothing. If you kick it 60 yards but your coverage guys aren't there because it was on a rope, you've accomplished nothing.

JoeF Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Darr hasn't punted in an NFL game for 22 months. I am sure they had him in for a workout and were favorably impressed but I see a lot of things that could go bad here....like.. Bills have arguably the best kicker in the league and they keep changing his holder If this is more than one week in the sun in Miami, this guy has little experience punting in bad weather. He was Tennessee's punter in college. However, he did put 2 inside the 20 (on three kicks) in the November 2015 game at the Ralph and 3 inside the 20 with a great average on 5 kicks in 2016 (December 24) Bills home game. So what the hell do I know? I hope the tryout included some outside kicks in the weather today or yesterday. ☃️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 No hang time and big returns because of it. How about we get a proven punter, like, I don't know, Shane Lechler? I know, old, but dude can still kick it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very inconsistent with several shorter punts that were returnable. He did have 2 punts that ended up inside the 5, but the booming punts when we were backed up just do not happen. That was why they replaced him before the season and the only reason he was back was the injury. That is my opinion on what is going on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 If the Bills could have, they probably would have signed the guy who bounced the beer can off Fournette.

transient Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Maybe the Bills have gone through so many punters this season because they're wearing out their legs... did you ever think of that? They needed someone with a fresh leg for the stretch run now that they don't have NP throwing to the other team 3-5 times per game instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
