Is it time to trade for some draft capital? Expand I think its got to be a possibility Maybe they can trade Zay and McCoy for picks 2

If he can keep this up, things are going to be looking up. Expand Looked pretty damn good in that Miami game last year 1
The Bills Blog Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Couldn't agree more about the kicking. Very problematic.

I was really pulling for him to make the team but he just doesnt seem to have it and we could use the roster spot elsewhere. Expand There is no such thing really as the first set of cuts. They go from 90 to 53 all in one day now. Sometimes teams will release guys a couple days before the deadline but for the most part, there used to be a first set but now there is only one.

Expand I'm not sure I'd say he's "struggling". But he is definitely a notch or 2 down from his former position of "invincible." Hopefully he shakes this off and returns to his former form in the real season.
Virgil Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) In a preseason game on offense, I look for a QB to march down the field smoothly and take what the defense gives them, as they show a very vanilla scheme. I saw that tonight from Josh and was happy to see it. His first two throws were catchable, but off the mark. After that, he was solid. Oliver was double teamed every play and I was hoping. That would lead to more pressure as Hughes and Murphy got single coverage and was disappointed. We only got pressure when we sent 5. McKenzie had the play of the night for me on that screen pass. To have the patience for his blockers to catch up and let the play develop in front of him was beautiful. WR cuts are going to be very hard and I don’t envy the coaching staff. I see us running with 2 QB’s this year. I too am slightly concerned with Hausch-money Edited August 17, 2019 by Virgil 1 1

I don't know, he was money last season though. I believe he has a new holder this time if I'm not mistaken. Just a thought. Expand I don't hear other kickers using holders as an excuse. Hauschka has not been the same since the injury. Even when the kick goes in, it kind of flutters through like a wounded duck, with little power and unnerving accuracy. We need a new kicker with a strong leg ASAP, and McD/Beane need to look past any loyalty to Hauschka. 1
Nuncha Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Hausch hasn't been himself since he took that cheap shot last season. Ball just doesn't have the same pop.... 2
White Linen Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 The offensive line still looks like an issue to me against starting defenders. I realize it should certainly get better with Morse but he's a concern also. 4

I could see the Bills keeping him on the PS for his raw physical ability, but he is nowhere near ready for the NFL. If Josh Allen got hurt and Matt Barkley comes in to start a game or more, Buffalo will look for a free agent as insurance against Barkley getting hurt rather than calling up Tyree Jackson. 1

The missed fg the laces looked to be facing the right side line, not how you place a ball for a kick. It's hard to kick a football with the laces all akimbo. Carter was holding. They need to get Barkley holding for House-money, and then figure out the punting mess. Edited August 17, 2019 by RocCityRoller 2 1

DuckyBoys Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 he has looked like he's aiming and finessing kicks since he came back after the injury in 2017 he was just lining up and striking the ball 100% 1

Prickly Pete Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Beasley looks like the centerpiece of the passing game. Sweeney looks good. Wade must be kept. The defense is going to be very, very good. They should bring in another center after cuts are made. The kicking game is very troubling. The overall talent level on this team is finally in the top half of the league. 1

Ball just doesn't have the same pop.... Expand I agree with this very good observation. I was there at the game and was privy to seeing the FG attempt he missed from a side view. His ball no longer penetrates. It's like he's punching at the ball instead of kicking through it. His leg looks weak at this point.
