Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 1 minute ago, LTF said: There are 6 games left and the Bills are getting rid of a punter who had 7 punts and an average punt of 44.9 yards this past weekend? Those are not great stats, but changing a punter now is ridiculous. This accomplishes what exactly? Could be a one week type of move? Maybe he's a really good punter in miami? Who knows...?
Logic Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 At least I'll have someone fun to tailgate with against the Jets! 1
GG Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Teach this guy the proper signals for a fake FG in the red zone 1
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 maybe that return was like... entirely schmidts fault? Not enough hangtime or somethin.
eball Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Shouldn't really be a surprise that they cut the same guy they cut before the season started in favor of an undrafted rookie. Schmidt just hasn't been good -- don't let the two bouncing punts misplayed by Jacksonville on Sunday fool you. 4
Roundybout Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 I noticed from the stands Sunday that, while he had those great punts to pin the Jags deep, overall he was pretty crappy. Even people around me noticed a lot of the punts wobbled and didn't go very deep. 7 minutes ago, LTF said: There are 6 games left and the Bills are getting rid of a punter who had 7 punts and an average punt of 44.9 yards this past weekend?

Guys are going to begin wondering if this GM and Coach have any idea what they are doing. I highly doubt this. 2
dollars 2 donuts Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Like I said in the Dolphins thread, the Bills with punters is like Spinal Tap with drummers. 1 1

You see any other teams in the league switching their punter who averaged 45 yards a punt for a guy that has even a worse average? Players do wonder when coaches and GM's bring in guys who are not very good. Matt Darr is not a good punter and he has not punted in an NFL game since 2016. Move makes no sense.
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 That carter kid in preseason was punting it real well. It sucks that he got hurt in a meaningless preseason game on a meaningless play. Would have probably only needed 1punter all year if he didn’t get rolled up on 3
I'm Spartacus Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 It's off to Colton RV for Schmidt now - I hear they are hiring.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Schmidt will be back next week after the Dolphin's playbook has been copied. 1

Told the forum earlier this season...this staff seems like a kid down to the convenience store, blowing his/her allowance on wax packs. Next allowance, new wax packs. 1

I thought the punts into the wind were low trajectory by design, and the results on those kicks were good. Otherwise, he was brutal. 2

BillsfaninChicago Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 I can see the headline now. “BILLS DARR TO BE DIFFERENT AT PUNTING” 1
