Just a gut feeling. 

 

Tyler Bass will break Adam Vinatieri's record of 44 straight field goals.

Josh Allen will break Norm Van Brocklin's record of most passing yards in a game (554). 

 

He would need over 70 attempts in a game.

That’s it, you just put the kibosh on Bass-o-Matic. The first rule of kicking streak club is you don’t talk about kicking streak club.

Van Brocklin had 41 attempts. The most was Jarred Goff (68)

Just one mention wouldn't jinx him. And once he gets close, more will be talking about it.

How many has Bass made in a row as of now?  I think it's highly unlikely, since McDermott trusts him to attempt some really long kicks, and he kicks in the Buffalo winds.  Still, he's an amazing kicker, so there's a chance.

 

Not sure Allen breaks that record, but I do expect him to have a couple of 450ish yard games this year.

That’d be fun to watch. It’d be cool if Josh does that tomorrow against the Dolphins.

 

Go Bills!

I highly doubt either of those will happen for the Bills, or any other team, for that matter. Bass particularly is at a disadvantage kicking in an outdoor stadium. And the outdoor stadium he kicks in is one of the worst for kickers in the NFL because of the swirling winds and the amount of snow it gets annually.

 

Allen is a threat with his legs, which takes away from his passing yards somewhat.

Amazing that the passing record has stood for 60 years.  Someone will break that record soon.  Why not Josh and the Bills. 

 

Looked at the box score for that game, what a  but-kicking by the Rams.   NY was totally overmatched.  They returned a punt and a fumble for TDs and still lost by 40.   

 

LA Rams outgained NY Yanks 735 yds - 168 yds overall, and in net passing 541 - 8!
