i didn't see the bears game, i was curious if we brought in someone to push lindell. i know his stats say he's not that bad, yet somehow i never have faith in the guy. is there anyone else we are looking at or are we only looking at kicks from inside the 40 for another full year?
is there another kicker in camp?

Re: is there another kicker in camp?
My concern isnt about somebody pushing Lindell but the fact that he and Moorman have to play an extra preseason game and handle all the kickoff and punting duties. Im concerned about leg fatigue late in the year.
Moorman has avg of 4.5 punts a game so far, that's just under 20 punts for the preseason. That's a lot imo.COMING SOON...

Really, I believe I saw a story of how they were using a juggs machine to simulate the punts in camp, so he doesn't have to do that.
And Lindell shouldn't have more than four kickoffs a game when the regular season starts.

Originally posted by Typ0we don't need anyone to challenge Lindell. Lindell has been hitting things outside 50 yards when we need them and that's the reason you let him play.

Originally posted by chernobylwraithsAs long as he isn't burned out in camp activity, there shouldn't be a problem. I mean really? Leg fatigue after a half a dozen kicks a week?

The Bills will have spent roughly three weeks at St. John Fisher, so just basic calculation tells us that each kicker will have kicked the ball at least 252 times before their 3rd preseason game even. So yes I think leg fatigue late in the season is something to be concerned about.
Teams use the juggs machine to work out the return men not to sub for a punter who still has to get his work in everyday.COMING SOON...

Re: is there another kicker in camp?
Seems they usually do bring in someone else for camp, just to kick so the others can practice. I was kind of surprised they didn't myself.
I remember Moormans first year here. We scooped him up from a different league that just ended. As the season wore on, his average dropped because he had been kicking for months longer then anyone else.
The next year he sustained a high marks for the duration."Heck, now I am glad his overrated arce made the pro bowl, else we would have only got a 3rd." ~ yordad

Re: is there another kicker in camp?
We had a place kicker, Danny Urrego, in camp earlier this year, but we cut him. We have had kickers and punters in the preseason several times in recent years, and I don't know why we don't have them now. I worry about Moorman specifically, because he hasn't been himself the last two seasons.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
