Einstein Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Bass is now 78% for the year (5th worst in NFL) and we haven’t let him attempt a field goal over 50 yards in 3 months. He also just missed a 20-some yard field goal. Can we trust him to make a game winning Playoff/Super Bowl kick at this point? 5 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 He's not good. I watch other games and the team gets to the 40 and they are kicking the FG. We get to the 40 and punt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBear Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Obviously, yes!!! WTH happened to the kid? He used to have a strong reliable leg. Now he looks completely washed up. And he's only 26. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetou Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Just now, BuffaloRebound said: Yes. Not sure how mcdermott has any confidence in him Sometimes I feel like they get too focused situationally on strategy to get the 3 points once the possibility arises. Didn't get that sense at all tonight other than the 3rd and long before the make. It's mostly a negative but it is one slight consolation prize that they may be more aggressive without a trustworthy kicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 The short miss was because his non-kicking foot slipped when he planted it. Why it was so horrible. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It’s no accident that teams who go deep into the playoffs all have outstanding kickers. This is a big problem for the Bills moving forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyo321 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I would rather have the Cowboys kicker at this point. He was a soccer player and he had a better year as rookie than Bass has had ever as a Pro !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SydneyBillsFan Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Never really rated him as an elite kicker and this years efforts have just reinforced that belief. It's almost hard to believe that Sam Martin has overtaken him on the trust-o-meter. We must draft a new kicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
