The All-Pro-Knox Gallery Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I’d like us to take a look at Dee Stroyer to replace Bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakout Squad Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Carlson is decent. I like Bass he’s been reliable so far other than his slipped missed kick. He has a really strong leg. Maybe Bass would be better with a dome team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UFL/USFL kickers intrigue me. There's a few that look worthy of a tryout. For instance, Matt Coghlin, Memphis Showboats. I don't see where he's on an NFL team. 2024: 16/17 FG, Long of 57 2023: 18/19 FG, Long of 55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigpen65 Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 No reason to think anything was going to change over the off-season. Bass is washed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Bass has to have no confidence. I bet this is a “motivating” move and they tell him them they believe in him. But he’s definitely on thin ice. might be time to add the other eye black so he can see straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2Moulds Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 (edited) What makes this even more disheartening, is knowing that all the other contenders have absolute studs as kicker. KC - Butker Cincy - McPherson Houston - Fairburn Balt - Tucker Although Tucker is starting to get old, and showing signs of regression finally. But still better than Bass Edited September 18 by Allen2Moulds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 (edited) 3 hours ago, Punching Bag said: That field was terrible and NFL needs to do something about it. York and Carlson both have been worse than Bass and are only suitable for emergency kickers. Yeah apparently the University of Miami game that was played there Saturday was a disaster too for that. 24 minutes ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: Unfortunately, Bass didn’t slip Yes he did. Almost impossible to hit a ball that poorly unless you slip, and it had the same trajectory and direction as a slip would.

I also watched the live replay several times and it was clear it wasn't blocked. The other view shows he didn't slip, is the hop normal? It seems like kickers just keep getting better and a 50+ is sorta commonplace. It is not good to have a kicker who is questionable even from 40+.

buffblue Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 4 hours ago, Logic said: They want a kicker for the practice squad, so that if Bass keeps wildly shanking kicks like the one he shanked in Miami, they'll have someone who's had a bit of time in their operation waiting in the wings. GOSH I hope Bass gets over his Yips. Kicker psychology is such a weird and inexplicable thing. There's not many instances of that happening. What makes it worse is that Bass was not very good to begin with. But generally, when a kicker loses his confidence it almost never comes back.

Snappysnackcakes Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 3 hours ago, Sojourner said: youre right. and during those 2 years he kicked at that percent was when he got his money. distance doesn’t seem much different… 2021: 40-49yards, 4/5. 50+yards, 2/4 2022: 40-49yards, 10/11. 50+yards, 2/3 2023: 40-49yards, 4/6. 50+yards, 4/6 2021: 20-39yards 22/23 2022: 20-39yards 15/17 2023: 20-39yards 16/17 again, I’d argue that if he kicks 5-10 more FGs a year, the % will be in that average success range (84-93%). the reason he’s coming under more criticism than years prior is the magnitude of the kicking he’s missed. statistically he’s pretty much been on par with where he was the first 3 years, 2020-22. You understand statistics. I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 5 hours ago, Big Turk said: I don't think the Bills could even waive Bass if they wanted to...his cap hit would put them over the cap. Cap hit would be $7.4 million plus the cost to sign another kicker. Not really. Spotrac has his post June cut as saving $100k this year with a $4.3M dead cap this year. His current cap is $4.4M. The rest goes on next year's dead money. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/47784/tyler-bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Young guys who want to make it in the NFL: become a great kicker because there aren't very many. Potential solid 15- 20 year career with low chance of traumatic injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
