Process Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Between FGs and XPs. Only miss was a 50+ yd FG. I know he gets a lot of love already but can we take a second to further recognize how insanely good this kid is? The definition of automatic. You can make a case for Tucker obviously because he has been so good for so long, but other than that there isn't a better kicker in the league. 15 1 7 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLTbills Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Bass-o-matic. it's insane seeing your kicker trot out for a 48 yard field goal and I'll hop up and go to the bathroom or grab a beer because you know there's absolutely no way he's going to miss. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it’s 57 yards, and I’m thinking “yeah, we got this”, you know you have something special! I can’t tell you how glad I am that he got over his obsession with the left upright. Having said all that, kicking is much like golf, which is largely played between the ears. Let’s NOT jinx anything! .

BADOLBILZ Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Their FG unit.......snapper, holder, kicker.........have been great. Bills have kicked too many FG's though...........those FG's in the redzone to begin games have been a harbinger of defeat............go for it and trust your great defense to make something happen with the opponent pinned back rather than trotting Bass out there for a feeble 3 pointer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syhuang Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I still remember someone claiming Bills should have kept Stephen Hauschka and Bass was a waste of a pick. There were lots of stats cited between Hauschka’s 2019 and Bass’ early 2020 numbers attempting to prove his point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubes Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Just remember, we used the pick acquired from the trade of Wyatt Teller to the Browns to get Bass. so when you’re feeling blue about losing Teller…just remember the Bass-o-matic. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Watching other games makes me more thankful for Bass. Just some abysmal kicking in some games.

Eh, I'm happy for Teller. Good for him. I have no regrets. He was a 5th round draft pick. It's not like we let a 1st rounder go. And I don't remember him doing anything particularly spectacular in a Bills uniform. Sometimes guys move to a new team and the scheme and personnel work well for them and everything clicks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 He's also money on kickoffs. He can kick it high and get it within a few yards of the one yard line if you think you can pin the other team behind their 25. He'll blast it through the endzone for a touchback if you don't think the reward is worth the risk. Thank you Brandon for drafting him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Swaggy Bass is definitely elite. I saw a video of him in college hitting a no step 50 yarder. Unreal leg on that kid.

Most 6th rounders fail to even make an NFL roster. Meanwhile a K, if he succeeds, is a huge addition to the team. And good job by the Bills' scouting department, seeing something they could correct or that caused his FG% to drop so much in his senior season. And then some, considering he's kicking better now than anytime in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
