He'll miss a big kick at some point this season...Originally posted by Mitch20
But he will make every FG attempt inside the 30 to inflate his stats and make everyone believe he is a good kicker.Comment

Great... and what happened against Cleveland on Monday night. Choke.Originally posted by yordad
Lindell's stats are a product of Buffalo getting into the redzone often and not scoring. Makes for an easy chip shot.Comment

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
Look at Lindell's splits....
10/15 from 40-49 yards... that is horrible. 1/3 from 50+ .. bad.
He pads his stats with FGs between 30-39 which he went 11/11 and from 20-29 he was 7/8.. more padding.
Compare that to Nick Folk splits...
he only had 1 kick between 20-29 yards. 10/11 from 40-49.... 2/2 from 50+Last edited by Mahdi; 09-08-2009, 10:07 AM.Comment

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
because of the preseason?
I've hated on the guy for a while now. I think he's junk. They don't even use him outside of the 40. What kind of kicker can't be used in the 40-49 yard range. Absolute junk. And he misses a good amount of hte time. He might have a high percentage becauseof the chip shots that Mahdi mentioned, but with a low scoring team, every miss is magnified because its one of only a few chances we get. we need a kicker in the 90% range on this current team.Comment

He kicks badly in Buffalo. Get someone who kicks well in Buffalo.Originally posted by yordad
And I seem to remember Dawson kicking the game winner for Cleveland just moments after Lindell missed the game winner and from a farther distance.Comment

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
Yeah, it's a valid point, because quite frankly, the way this offense looks, we're going to have serious issues with scoring touchdowns again, and the only way we squeak out a couple more victories is with an awesome kicker.
Man, this season sucks already.Comment

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
OK, lets trade him to Cleveland for Dawson.
I mean, is someone suggesting we grab someone from the local grocery?Last edited by yordad; 09-08-2009, 10:18 AM."Heck, now I am glad his overrated arce made the pro bowl, else we would have only got a 3rd." ~ yordad

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
I think he's in the middle of the league, and I'm not sure there is anyone better out there at the moment.
And I think we have far bigger problems.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?

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
Its pretty obvious that Lindell is no stud kicker, but his long-distance stats are definitely not nearly as good as kickers who kick in domes consistently. We have one of the windiest, coldest stadiums in the NFL and it would be ridiculous to not admit that his affects long-distance kicks and the stats pertaining to them.Comment

Re: Anyone worried about Lindell?
actually, I changed my mind, I think Lindell will go 4 for 4 in the opener, so we'll only lose 56-12Comment
