Never thought I'd say this after last year but we have a deep WR corps. Even feels weird just saying it."we have a deep receiving corps"...but I love it! Aside from Stefon giving me a near stroke the other day when he fell...i effing LOVE watching him run routes, with his crazy lightning quickness, the absolutely SICK moves he puts on DBs, and the effortless fluidity of his route-running....and please forgive me y'all for being honest right here, but I hold my breath every time I watch him run, because of how quickly he's able to stop and change directions. It scares the living dookie out of me... But DAMN am I ready to see this offense take the field!!! Edited August 26, 2020 by smuvtalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally over the course of camp I think he has missed 5 or 6 times from inside 50. You can't have that. Those kicks HAVE to be routine. He needs to finish strong to be sure of winning the job IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A slight advantage in % but he's also a day behind. Interested to see where it shakes out whenever he gets to have his shot at round 4 of this matchup in the next couple days. I will say hearing about him come up short on 2 straight 50 yd attempts the other day is sort of cringe worthy. BTW both of those percentages would workout to about dead last among kickers last season.... thats slightly unsettling. EDIT: Wrong about ranking. 80% would place a kicker who played most of the season last year at about #20 Edited August 26, 2020 by Stank_Nasty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't miss from under 50. You just can't. I don't think this competition has gone anywhere yet. Bass is slightly better from 50+ but he is less reliable from inside 50.

You make most kickers kick that many from 40+, the percentages are gonna take a drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshAllenHasBigHands Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Just now, Stank_Nasty said: good point. they really arent letting them attempt and chip shots. The question boils down to: do you want someone who is almost guaranteed from under 50; or do you want someone that is gonna miss some under 50, but hit a bunch from over 50? If it were just about this year, I would want Hauschka. But its also about the future. We drafted Bass, we should play Bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have predicted that day 1 of camp and the dial hasn't been moved by either. I'll go back to what I said previously...I don't think all days of the "competition" are equal. When both kickers had to perform in the stadium last week, where the wind and atmosphere are different, Bass was clearly better and Hauschka was short from 50+ three times. I think the scrimmage in the stadium tomorrow plays a very large part in deciding this, and my gut still tells me they go with the rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pretty much trust Haush with my life to make a clutch kick from under 50.

I think limiting our range with Hauschka at 50 directly impacts us in game plans. Now we are most likely punting or having to go for it. I go with the big leg. Just my opinion .

That said, if Allen develops, we will have a much better chance next year. I think the Bills will be good this year, but I don't think they are going to the Super Bowl. Next year, maybe. Either way, we will need a kicker that is reliable. Haush will be another year down the road, and we may very well end up cutting Dustin Hopkins again. 2 minutes ago, loveorhatembillsfan4life said: I think limiting our range with Hauschka at 50 directly impacts us in game plans.

Where would his percentage on kicks under 50 put him last year is the question? Not sure that is easy to find out without taking everyone's 50+ kicks off. My thinking is he is still one of the most reliable kickers in the NFL below 50 yards. I'm not sure I am willing to trade that in for an unreliable big leg. I would rather go for more 4th downs in that 50-55 yard range if it comes to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stank corrected me it is actually three times from inside 50.... but Haush is 100% from under 50. We have to have a kicker who is borderline automatic from inside 50 yards in my mind.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 WRT Hausch inside the 50 Look at the film. From the Right hash 45 and under - he was very BAD. From the Left hash and middle of the field he was much much better. Every time the ball was placed on the right I knew he'd miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
