Hilarious---Bills do not have a "qualifying player" for punting statistics

Maybe...would have preferred to see him aim outside the upright and let it blow back in, but he has kicked there a lot more than I have so maybe that doesn't work well. 

 

Second mishit ball he has had in 5 games...that 38 yarder against Miami would have missed to the left even it wasn't partially blocked.

The wind was doing kinda strange things in Miami that day.  Deceiving...

The one against the Steelers was only blocked because it never even got above the lineman...that was a God Awful kick...the kind of kick that you have happen when you are transitioning from playing soccer to kicking footballs(ask me how I know) and don't understand where you have to kick the ball to get height, and one that you almost never see an NFL kicker make.

 

I think he was trying to lowball it to keep it under the wind.  It was bad, but I understand the thought process.  I still can't believe we didn't win 41-3 😜

I guess we will survive with a punt deity. 🤷‍♂️

my first thought when we took Araiza was “it’ll be exciting to see this guy boom some punts, but we’re not going to need him much at all”.

The first team offense has had 47 possessions in 5 games, here are the results:

Touchdowns: 17

Field Goals: 8 made, 2 missed 

Interceptions: 4 

Lost Fumbles: 5

Punts: 5

Turnover on Downs: 2

Kneel downs: 2

Time ran out in half: 2

Seems like a lifetime ago that Araiza was a thing

So basically we either score a TD or attempt a FG about 63%(27/43) of our non-kneeldown/EOH possessions?  That is absurd!

Josh just won’t allow drives to die.

 

The 10 other guys do not matter....it's Josh and Josh only right?

Didn't notice that but I guess it's possible. Just something to keep on eye on with Bass moving forward.

[JÂy RÛßeÒ]

I keep saying - most teams have a punter who also holds.  We have a holder who also punts.

Of course they matter… Josh just makes them look A LOT better than they are… specifically the offensive line…. He is the best player in the game at the moment. 

 

Just like every great QB in the game....

What's a punter?

 

The punter is the player who holds for point after touchdowns.

ESPN only shows 31 players since Sam Martin doesn't have enough attempts to qualify 😂🤣

 

Bills might also be the only team in NFL history that has fans boo their team for punting while up 35 points in the 4th quarter with the backups in.  It's just not acceptable to punt, ever, we don't care who is out there.

Not sure what your arguing?
 

Josh is the best in the business and the only one close is Mahomes…. 

 

My point has been the Bills offensive line is not very good and the lack receiver depth. You think that’s wrong? 

 

I will agree that the line isn't very good right now.  Our WR depth has shown it's been pretty good.  Davis, Crowder and McKenzie have all missed time....we haven't skipped a beat.

Allen has been pressured at the second lowest rate in the NFL at 12.3%, second only to the Bucs 12.1% and lead the NFL in explosive plays with 20 20+ yard passes and 6 40+ yard passes.  Additionally, Allen has only been sacked 8 times all year with a sack percentage of 3.7%, 7th lowest in the NFL.

 

The pass protection by definition CANNOT be bad.

 

Run blocking...that's another story. But Pass Pro, has been very good.

Not that there's anything wrong with that .

[MJS]

Let's hope that holds up after this week. No punts against the Chiefs (and no turnovers, please).

Can I see that link?  I want to take a look at all the rankings.

We suffered through having our punter be the best player on the team. You'll have to forgive us for booing punts.
