Get Rid of Dan Carpenter???

[alnilla]

He has done one hell of a job IMO. To lose his job to unproven rookie is gonna be hard to stomach I believe. Once Hopkins gets well

[TacklingDummy]

He should lead the league in field goes with this offense.

[Owen DeBoard]

Yeah he has been solid so far and he hit a 50 yard field goal last night. I dont remember the last time a Bills kicker has made one of those.

The offense wasnt all bad last night at times they looked like they were clicking then other times looked like they could be stopped by a pee wee team. But that goes for the whole team last night.

I think you meant to say get rid of Powell.

He SUCKS. Bring back Moorman.

[The King]

Although if you're going to suck, might as well get the rookie kicker some experience.

Bills should just IR Hopkins this year and go with Carpenter and have an open competition next year.

Dan Carpenter has earned the starting job as our kicker. Dustin Hopkins needs to be placed on the practice squad, sent to IR or simply cut. We need the roster spot for a QB or CB.

Carpenter been consistent in hitting field goals. He's shown the ability to nail long kicks over 50. He's done a good job at sending kickoffs into the end zone. Exactly what you want out of your kicker.

Hopkins has a big leg, but was VERY inconsistent in the preseason - both in field goals and in keeping kickoffs from going out of bounds.

Agreed.

Through 5 games, I've seen enough of Powell. He needs to be replaced ASAP.

He basically cost us the game against Cleveland.

Or... an ace ST player, preferably a punt gunner.

Has anyone seen how awful Lindell has been?

I agree. They are tying up a useful player spot with two kickers. Could use another DB.

Has anyone seen how awful Lindell has been?

YES, I have. So happy he is no longer a Bill.

Good guy, but he needs to retire.

[paladin warrior]

BIlls did Shawn Powell cut after disastrous Buffalo Bills' game

[Buffalogic]

Carpenter has missed 3 fgs through 5 games.....

[mayotm]

Carpenter has missed 3 fgs through 5 games.....That's incorrect. He is 11 for 12 with 2 50+ yarders.

[better days]

That's incorrect. He is 11 for 12 with 2 50+ yarders.

And he consistently gets the ball into the endzone on kickoffs.
