Norwood was kicker of year at age 28 (1988) by 1990 he was washed. Bass is 26, but seems to have lost his leg. The ball doesn’t pop off it no more. 1 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he is in a groove it was high and fading it in. not sure how to get his confidence back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 He’s got the weirdest hook angle kick I’ve ever seen. A competent ST coach might do wonders but I don’t expect that under Sean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st pete gogolak Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Second miss was huge. Maybe the turning point. He makes it and it’s 20 - 7, with the Bills looking dominant. Eagles immediately move down the field for a touchdown and now it’s a brand new game. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 There's nothing wrong with him. I agree, he's not having his best season, but today he had one blocked and missed a 48 yarder in a downpour. That's not something I'd panic or worry about moving forward. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 In same weather I believe opposing kickers have missed 1 kick all year. Bass has missed 4. It’s costing us games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisplacedBillsFan Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 His stats are essentially the same as every other season he’s been on the team. Slight variations which will likely even out by the end of the year, putting him exactly where he’s been the past three years when everyone loved him.

buffblue Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) To be honest, the notion that Bass was automatic prior to this year has always been flawed. His career fg accuracy of 85.3% ranks in the bottom half of kickers since entering the league. He's never really been "Bassomatic" imo, but this year he seems to have really lost confidence Edited November 27, 2023 by buffblue 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 1 minute ago, Dr.Sack said: Bass is being out kicked like McD is being out coached. A 95% FG conversion rate would be right in line with the best three to five kickers in the league each year. For that to be the total against the Bills this far into the season is very likely a statistical abberation. It doesn't necessarily say anything about Bass, though again, this hasn't been his best year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
