With Kern saying no, who would people want next if Martin doesn't work out?

 

Someone not named Matt!

I thought the Bills not having a punter one week before the season opener was strange.  But then i saw Jacksonville released both place kickers on their roster yesterday.  They brought in a K today from the waiver wire.

Having a solid kicker is more important than a punter.

OK, so he can putt.  I want to know if he can drive the football deep when punting from his 5 yard line.

 

Because the Bills might do that once all year.

Did anybody get a fix on Sam Martin's plane yet?

I think it deserves its own thread

Dude that was funny.  Refresh, refresh, refresh.  Wash, rinse, repeat.

I am sure he has an F16 fighter escort

I hope whoever in the FO that was in charge of vetting punters sat this one out.

Has Martin attended any off-campus parties within the last year or so?

[Boatdrinks]

He’s 32 so I’d sure as hell hope not!

Curious why Kern said no given that he's a Grand Island native. Must have been the money?

Maybe the Bills didn’t make him an offer.

Can't be the money if he's not making any...

Probably wants to stay in Nashville for family reasons. Was supposedly considering retirement

He's made a lot of money and he's played in one place for a long time. He has a life there with kids. He probably didn't want to uproot all of that, particularly knowing that the door wasn't completely closed with the Titans.

His father said today on the radio that he doesn’t want to  move his family and will simply retire unless he gets a call back from Tennessee at some point.

Checks out, I might do the same in his position

[BillsFanSD]

Maybe this is just our way of credibly committing to four downs of offense every drive, every game, all season.  I've always wondered what would happen if a team did that.  It worked for the Rams that one game.

His net return was better in away games last year than at home.

I don't believe Kern said no, I haven't seen anywhere that he was offered the job.
