Sestak4ever Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 With the ability to flip the field anytime during the season is huge if you can do it consistently. It also helps in situations where penalties set you back, but the punter bails you out. This draft is checking all the boxes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddyjj Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 1 minute ago, LABILLBACKER said: I don't get the obsession with punters holding kicks. Qbs spin the ball off shotgun snaps constantly. Just train Case Keenum. It’s a practice time constraint as QBs are focused on game plan and backup takes reps too. And per current NFLPA contract very limited practice time. I doubt Case Keenan or Barkley eve held too so same learning curve. Will make sense to train the punter then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 13 minutes ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: the bills should just have Barkley hold full time and activate him on game days in that role. I don’t want any punter messing up Bass again. If the Bills are going to have to activate a 3rd QB, they might as well just keep Haack to hold & keep Barkley on the practice squad. We've had 2 kickers before, why not 2 punters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
