Dodged a bullet there. While Beane would never state this, I'm sure part of the reason they wouldn't give him the money he wanted was because of the holding issues that he had last season. I will not be at all surprised to see the Bills draft a punter in around the 5th or 6th round as I'm sure they aren't to happy with the punting, but are very thrilled with him as a holder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, he took a risky interceptable pass to a double-covered WR over a much safer crossing route to a guy who had miles of turf (relatively speaking) around him. So maybe Rodgers risk-aversion is being mis-stated and mis-remembered here 9 minutes ago, Ed_Formerly_of_Roch said: While Beane would never state this, I'm sure part of the reason they wouldn't give him the money he wanted was because of the holding issues that he had last season.

He was not so great on pinning people deep vs touchbacks, and he was dodgy as a holder, but he didn’t consider that. He wound up signing with LA and wagering he’d outduel Hekker, only to be traded to the “Frozen Tundra” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take away was that Bojo wanted a 1 year deal. Runor had it his gal wanted to go out west...before he got traded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he didn't return. And ultimately, they paid Haack less than they would have had to pay Bojo, the Bills did just fine and both had punts blocked, but one was at the beginning of the season and the other was at the end...

The Frankish Reich Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 5 hours ago, WhoTom said: While Bojo had a ton of bad holds over the season, the one last night wasn't one of them. A defender came in nearly unabated. On the punt, it did look like he hesitated or took an extra step, but again, a defender broke the line pretty easily. But yeah, I'm glad he refused the Bills' offer, based solely on the regular season. Correct. The blocking of the special teams unit was atrocious. And it seems that we're not the only Great Lakes team that needs a dome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 6 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Did Rodgers actually say this? Did he actually blame Bojo? Because he should apportion blame with a mirror if so. It's not all on AR, but he is the star, and he needs to own his share. He didn't blame Bojo specifically, but special teams on the whole.

MPT Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Bass had two extra points blocked by the Pats. That's not on him or Haack, and the Packers getting a couple blocked kicks isn't on the kickers either. Their lines just let guys run straight through.
