Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
I'm confused. I think there has to be another move coming. I'd have thought if they would have cut Carpenter, not Gay."'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"
"Eh, Phil. That's one I happen to agree with." -

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
I thought that they were kind of stashing Gay to become the full time kicker later on. Hes been kicking the ball through the endzone (which is all hes been asked to do), so you cut him and sign a 35 year old? Doesnt make sense that they cut the kicker whos been doing his job over carpenter who hasntComment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
They got a roster exemption to keep IK practice eligible but he can't play until they clear a roster space. Expect Carpenter gone to make room for him.
Also, how did we make room for Boom?Comment

We put MarQueis Gray on the IR. He broke some bone (wrist/forearm maybe?) and he's getting surgery todayOriginally posted by OpIv37 View PostComment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
Carpenter I think will be given the chance this week to keep his job. Having Cundiff gives the Bills a second guy who can be a place-kicker while also being able to get touchbacks.Comment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
Carpenter is on the injury report, so it seems like they wanted another kicker to make FG and PAT, in case Carpenter can't kick.
Releasing Gay means they don't trust him to do anything but kick off, and they didn't want to release Carpenter to bring in a backup.Comment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
How awful is Gay as a place kicker? He must really terrible.Comment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
He's really not though. He made a 50+ yarder with the wind in his face against me in college, and he was the best kicker in our conference for a few years. Not sure how that doesnt translate to the NFL, maybe he's just not accurate enough.Originally posted by kingJofNYC View PostComment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
It's so strange that Carpenter's wife was just on John Murphy Show talking about hosting this annual community event, and next thing you know they may be out of the job already.
Cruel world.Comment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
Cundiff is plan B in case DC has another **** week.
This is it for Carpenter. If he ****s the bed vs the Titans he's gonna get the axe.
Lets hope the Cundiff signing lights a fire under his ass and he goes back to his pre 2015 form.
As for Gay its a tough situation. He sure did his job well. But roster spots are limited and having a guy that only kicks off is a luxury.
Thigpen also got cut. Another guy that does ONE thing. I remember saying right after the Fred cut that I couldn't understand why those 2 dudes made the team above Fred. ****ing Whaley is so inept that it took 2 injuries to our RB's and DC struggling for him to realize this.Comment

Re: Cundiff signed. Gay released
This is the only rational explanation-Carpenter is not gone. If he doesn't get better he'll go on IR. Cundiff is so bad that all the teams who have cut their kickers in recent weeks didn't sign him. Relax-Carpenter's phone would be ringing off the hook if the Bills were stupid enough to release him-give the team more credit than that.Originally posted by GingerP View Post
Thigpen deserved to get cut after fair catching inside the 10 at least 3 times.Last edited by Albany,n.y.; 10-07-2015, 08:29 AM.Comment
