They cared enough to say he was the most overrated.

I referenced 13 seconds as an example for the present. Who cares what a player would do years ago? That has nothing to do with making a kick this year.

Nobody is saying in 2022, we’re talking now. I don’t care if he could make it then, I care about the present. He had a chance this past January, whiffed big time.

That’s not the point though. The point is….Bass is not at all likely to make that kick or a kick ten yards closer than that kick. I’m not saying if he’s as good as Butker. Everyone knows he’s not, hence this is even a topic The point being, you need a kicker that won’t cost you a close game. And you need one that will help you win a game, not make a coach think….Well, normally I’d kick here….But Bass struggles. Now it impacts play calling, etc. Right now, this season. What is he doing right now? Put Bass in that situation, this year, no way. Not likely to make it all. Yeah, but that one kick. Ya know, the one.

Take 13 seconds for example. Do you believe Bass makes the kick that Butker made to send it to OT? Bass may have numbers that suggest he is able to make a kick, but zero confidence he’ll make a gotta have it kick. He’s destined to be Scott Norwood in the SB. They’re in a tough spot and probably stuck with him, for now. Hoping it finds his way, we need him too.

Division game, teams HATE each other (especially these two). I’m frustrated with the penalties (Brown and Dawkins), but I bet we don’t see that against most other teams. If (big if lately), Bass makes his field goal and extra point, the Jets still lose 27-26 assuming Mike Stratton makes the two field goals. Gotta call that both ways. To me the offense and defense looked “right”, with the exception of a few bad penalties and mental lapses on the personal fouls. Guys stepped up. For a normal Bills against Jets game, the offense was good (just gotta stop handcuffing themselves - Brown).

Derrick Henry’s old legs will wear as the season goes along.

Unfortunately we’ve been here before. Von Miller when traded to the Rams (Broncos) and Christian McCaffrey to the 49ers (Panthers). And I think they’ll go the same course. Obviously both made the SB and/or won it with said player. Buffalo will probably grab a defensive player nobody saw coming (Douglas last year).

He’s missed one preseason “game” kick, he’s missed enough/others during practice to feel less than confident in his ability to make any needed kick.

Tough to hear. I was fortunate enough to meet Coach D'Alessandris in Mobile immediately following a Senior Bowl game that then Bills coach, Chan Gailey, and his staff coached….Including Coach D. We chatted for a while, he actually gave me his personal cell phone with an offer to take me and my boys on a tour of the Bills facilities/stadium. We exchanged texts on a few occasions. Rest in peace, much prayer.

Bicep tendon? Lower, upper?

I don’t think so (Steelers game being an indicator of things to come). O Line and D Line looked bad in that game, the team looked disjointed, terrible. Fast forward to the season, both were polar opposites (with a healthy Daquan Jones and Matt Milano). Also lost White on the boundary. The mid season slide started with the mounting injuries. Guys like Dodson had to find their way, Poyer moved more into the box, etc.

And they finished the season as Division champs and had the SB champs on the ropes with a depleted defense in the playoffs. They “started” the season 3-1 followed by a slide with critical injuries on defense. Right?

They were down 27-0 against the Steelers after three quarters in the second preseason game (last year), both sides of the line were blown up, offense was sluggish, defense was ran through, etc. Preseason doesn’t reveal much, just stay healthy, move onto the real games.

You mean Worthy. Legette is massive and plays on the Panthers.

The clock starts for the next draft pick once the team picking turns in their card. Whatever is said, speech, no speech, whatever, doesn’t add to or speed up the draft process. You’ll still get your stuff done as you see fit 🤪

Seems to get interceptions in big games….Couple of playoff games, against KC in KC. He played on ankle injury last year.

This. Having a history of “giving” Mahomes to KC, unable to beat them in the playoffs, makes KC a team you just don’t do business with. Doesn’t matter what draft grades you have, who you think they’ll take, whatever. You just don’t do it. Reid will scheme a Worthy special in the playoffs and we’ll hear it over and over.

We don’t necessarily know if they did or didn’t. They may have reached out and were declined. We only know who they actually interviewed. Seeing Brady took over in less than ideal circumstances, he put his offense in position to score big on the AFC Champions, and was consistent that way against many others, I’m excited about Brady getting a full offseason to get the Offense ready for next year.

Partnerships with funeral homes, it’s uncharted territory.

Same here. He gave us some good moments, also the tough ones. But I hope the best for him.

I agree with you. Bass still sucked this season.

Should’ve been in four down mode, not going for the TD. That said, Bass has been shaky all year. Zero confidence in him during “gotta have it” kicks. And that was BEFORE the playoffs. After the playoffs, barring some undisclosed injury that impacted, I don’t see him making the much needed kicks.

I DO NOT WANT BELICHICK. All I‘m saying is that anyone pointing out his record without Brady is failing to acknowledge he would have Allen (which is far greater than any other QB he has had, aside from Brady). Belichick had NOT a single quality starter (please don’t say Bledsoe).
