Kelly the Dog Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 He had a tremendous game. The wind was really playing tricks with the ball. Lindell, too, finally hit a long important kick, which was into a swirling wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime he was back there to catch a punt or a kickoff, I was pretty nervous he would fumble and he almost did at one point which would've really changed the game. Roscoe - come back soon.

Roscoe - come back soon. 471244[/snapback] He made that one fumble that he luckily recovered but the wind was really bad today for the return men on punts sometimes. The second one that he fair caught was actually a nice play not to drop it, the ball was moving all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saudi Arabia Rob Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 It was nice to see Lindell make a long kick with some pressure. If I had a choice, I'd still take Scott Norwood over Lindell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarthur31 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Teams played well today. Nice to see McGee return one a long way. It's too bad we couldn't do anything with it tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had a choice, I'd still take Scott Norwood over Lindell! 471257[/snapback] Norwood was money ....he just missed that one ....he won alot of games....the jury is still out on lindell in that department..........

MadBuffaloDisease Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Shows what a top-notch long-snapper can do for you, once everyone gets comfortable with him. Dorenbos was a nice story, but wasn't ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Moormans problems haven't been so much kicking long it's try to place the ball on shorter kicks. It remains to be seen if tht is corrected as he really didn't have to do that yesterday. Lets see when he is kicking from an oppoenents 40 or 45 what happens, and he needs to get it inside the 10.

He usually doesnt do that. Yesterday, he was really tremendous, as the wind was a lot worse than expected or probably looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsWatch Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 He had a tremendous game. The wind was really playing tricks with the ball. Lindell, too, finally hit a long important kick, which was into a swirling wind. 471238[/snapback] Yes he did. Last year he was only consistant player and when he was not doing well this year I thought "Oh no. We fixed out kicking problem just to mess up our DESERVINGLY All Pro punter." Looks like he has his mojo back. Lindell has been doing very well including kickoffs. Looks like that off-season work pays off. Shows what a top-notch long-snapper can do for you, once everyone gets comfortable with him. Dorenbos was a nice story, but wasn't ideal. 471483[/snapback] Ethan Albright was an ideal long snapper but we lost him when Bills decided (some say had to) go to bare bones to get out of cap hell. Dorenbos was a snapper who could snap with trememedous speed but for a FG kicker was not ideal. Glad it finally worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
