Young man, I just need to be sure that when the chips are down, you can knock through a kick from grass 47 yards out, in a slight Tampa breeze...but absolutely no pressure! 

 

 

Thanks for posting this picture. Now I have a stomach ache.

I really hate you right now

I feel this pain too. That's why it's so important to get the K position right! 

[Big Turk]

I mean why now? Why not wait until you see if he has fully recovered from the hit last year?? Unnecessary and not smart IMO...

Not saying he won't be the same as he was but the timing is very Fitzy...way early.

Was going to be a UFA at the end of year...guessing the Vikings and Bears issues with kickers were a bit of a lesson.  Means Bills aren't interested in Carli Lloyd ?

 

 

 

yeah, kicker purgatory is real.  The Vikings, Bears, and even Steelers have lost important games when they lost good kickers.

Hauschka's 86.7% career field goal conversion rate ranks 7th all time in the NFL. He also holds the record for most consecutive made field goals from 50+ yards at 14.

Yeah, that's right: Stephen Hauschka is a top 10 all time kicker in the NFL. The Seahawks were silly to let him go after one down season, and their error has benefitted the Bills greatly.

Love the simple logic of, we got a good one, so just lock him in to a deal.

[Augie]

I hope he gets his mojo back!

House Money!!! 

 

So just for clarity, his nickname or whatever you want to call Murphy's bellowing after he makes a kick, is Haush money, right?

He should have aimed for the Malboro sign....

 

Apparently he aimed for the Target sign thinking that was his ?

this is all awesome.... but ignoring the fact that he has been inaccurate this preseason and it dates back to the end of last season is just sorta foolish IMO.

 

i'm all for giving him another year but lets not act like he's been trending in the right direction or even nearly as good as his first year in buffalo.

Probably. 

 

House money is how I call it.

Meh. He was admittedly bad at the end of last year, but it mostly came after the cheap shot when he was clearly dealing with injury.

This preseason, he's been rotating between two holders every other time he kicks the ball.

We'll see how things shake out come regular season. The fact that Hauschka says in the article that he had a really good spring and summer and the fact that the Bills re-signed him and Beane has full confidence leads me to believes the team is not at all worried.

and i'm all for that as well. but please don't state overall career stats and act like they paint a picture of how he's played LATELY..... its not an accurate portrayal.

I'm not sure where my original post stated anything about how he's played lately. I simply pointed out that he's a top all time kicker and it was nice that the Seahawks messed up and let him go. 

That being said...I get the Bills fans are nervous about him, but the worry is a bit overblown, in my opinion. If you want to see a kicking game that gives real cause for concern, go look at the Bears or the Jets.
