Marv's Neighbor Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 OK, he didn't cost us the game, but is he really an upgrade over Colton Schmidt?

wppete Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 He made a mistake on the hold. But he has been great punting the ball. Great pick up by Bean. He has a bright future. 1

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 I think he may end up being better than schmidt. yesterday was a miscommunication, it happens. so far this season...

Expand He's a rookie and he had a screw up. He is punting well. If he crumbles Colton is on his couch waiting for a phone call. Special Teams got a lot of other things to concern themselves about before Corey IMO.
wnysteel Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 he's made 2 critical mistakes so far. sorry, but that's an unacceptable level for someone who only plays maybe 10 snaps a game. let's put it this way. if he was on the Pats*, do you think Belicheat would cut him? 1

Kelly the Dog Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 It's funny but on the game-winning FG, I was much more worried that the snap would be dropped or the hold not be good, than House Money missing the kick. Never had that feeling before. He had to be nervous on that, but he got it down clean. I think we give him the whole season and see what happens. He could become a very good punter.
NewEra Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 He screwed up and almost cost us a game. He’s better than Colton Schmidt. I’ll take him. Hope he’s not seriously injured.

Expand Belicheat will never be in position where he has to choose from Schmidt or Bojorquez. Thinking about what he’d do in that situation is a waste of time. We’ll never know. I think he’d keep the best punter. Imo, that’s bojorquez

Imo, that’s bojorquez Expand we aren't talking about QB or all-star linebacker. we are talking about the punter. not even a kicker. we had the best punter in the league for a few years and what did that get us?

Expand What are you talking about? What does this have to do with Belicheat? My point it......it doesn’t matter “what we think belicheat would do”. Are you trying to say that if we keep a punter that screwed up 2 times in 5 games, McBeane will probably fail because Belicheat would cut him (meanwhile you have zero clue what belicheat would do)? ......again. I have no idea what belicheat has to do with any of this......and it’s the basis of you entire arguement for or against keeping this kid,
jjstelljj Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 Random thought, but on that busted play wasn't it roughing the passer in terms of the new rules? When he got hit, that defender totally put ALL of his bodyweight on him. Exactly what the rule was written for. In that situation, he was the quarterback trying to complete a pass, right?
