Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Pshaw. They're kicking 47 yarders in Little Loop Leagues nowadays. It's usually the 6'3" kid that weighs 240 lbs. and plays LB, or that kid whose parents are from Brazil, and is the 11 year old soccer style kicker on the high school team. 😁 Quote
Augie Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Never crosses my mind. Are you also obsessed when there are 13 seconds left? I’ve moved on, it’s the healthy way to live I believe. 3 1 2 Quote

stevestojan Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Wow. Lots of folks saying they don’t think of it. I must be a weirdo too. Every single FG I hear at 47 yards makes me think of Wide Right. 3 2 Quote

Maybe we can get a group rate on counseling. 😂 I get it, a 47 yard FG was a big deal in Bills history. But it’s somewhat ancient history at this point. I’m not saying anyone else is wrong, because it’s your life to live. I just choose not to dwell on negative things. I don’t see how that helps anything in any way. Just different ways of life, I guess. We lost a game, a REALLY BIG game, but still a GAME. Believe me, if I want things to bring me down, this is nowhere near the top of the list from my life. You can also flip the coin here. The way Bills fans supported Norwood at the ceremony downtown made me even more proud to be a Bills fan. Sometimes losing shows true character. I didn’t cry when he missed, but I may have shed a tear when he got that support. . . Edited October 7, 2023 by Augie 1 Quote
Another Fan Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) 2 hours ago, LabattBlue said: NFL or NCAA, is there ever a 47 yd FG attempt that doesn’t make you think… Wide Right It does make me marvel sometimes how hitting 60 yard field goals today isn’t really outside the norm anymore. A reason why I have Steve Christie as my avatar. It was exciting in those days as a kid to see him drill 50 plus yard field goals consistently. I want to say he was one of the first field goals kickers who was consistent at that distance Edited October 7, 2023 by Another Fan 1 Quote

longtimebillsfan Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 2 hours ago, LabattBlue said: NFL or NCAA, is there ever a 47 yd FG attempt that doesn’t make you think… Wide Right Every time I see a 47 yarder I do think of wide write. Don't mind the poster that are obstinate and want to make you feel foolish. That is their problem. 1 Quote
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 The Four Falls of Buffalo 30/30 episode from ESPN also goes into exhaustive detail about the kick, it helped me to process the whole thing 🫣. An excellent documentary, imho. 1 Quote
