Lloyd's as FG Kicker


Recommended Posts

I was looking at the pics from the Observer and notice one picture with Baker holding and Lloyds kicking a field goal. The thought of him kicking FG's for us is very intriguing. We have John Kasay arguable one of the greatest kickers ever to play the game. But even John cannot kick forever. It would seem to me that Lloyd could learn from the master himself. Has anyone been watching this action? Does Lloyd have what it takes to be accurate like Kasay.

Sometimes instead of walking off the field outside of Kasay's range. Why not give Lloyd a chance to nail one from 55-65 yds. Granted we would have to prevent a run back if he missed. But I don't see thunderfoot leaving too many kicks inbound to play. Make sure time will expire during the kick so the opposing team cannot do a hail mary and reverse the strategy.

I think he has the foot to break the NFL record. With the Master teaching him.. WHY NOT?

i haven't seen it myself CBD, but a lot of the people doin camp updates have said that Lloyd has been kicking some FGs, and that he has been putting them right down the middle.

then he must have made some MAJOR adjustments since I watched him this past spring in OTA's...

I am one who saw him kick 10 in a row through the uprights from 45 or 50 yards with no problem on Friday. Obviously it isn't even close to seeing him kick in a game with the added pressure, but they definitely weren't knuckling and some would have been good from 60 yards. Now last year I would totally agree his field goal kicking was not good at all.

Seriously....Down by 2 at the end of the game. Within 60 -70 yds. Do you throw the Hail Mary? or Do you give Lloyd a chance to win it? The chances of it getting blocked are high as the trajectory would have to be a drive. But He has the power to it.

I would think this percentage is higher then throwing a Hail Mary.

Agreed?

    • Arm is weak? Another useless complaint who gives a flying f… if he makes all the throws accurately idgaf about arm strength. Let’s dive deeper into your complaint no zip on the ball show me a play where his lack of zip cost us anything. Show me a play where his weak arm cost us a completion or because he doesn’t have a Josh Allen cannon he didn’t make the play he needed to make. His 40 yarder down the field to XL two weeks ago was a got d…. dime his throw to AT in the end zone was a dime, his throw to XL 3 weeks ago that the man pulled out his hand was a dime about 30+ yards. What about the one handed grab to AT was a rocket arm needed? You’re logic is so self absorbed your judging the man off what you want him to have and that’s just outright goofy, not judging him off performance not off the talent he’s going against not even the situation he’s facing ex..(4th quarter down by 4 needed a TD) in which he’s outperformed all expectations vs KC vs Giants vs Tampa nobody Gives a f…. about him not having a rocket he’s noodle arm in the last 4-5 weeks has him rated as top 3 QB I think that’s way more Important then satisfying fans need for our QB to possess a cannon these complaints are getting too notch outlandish and quite embarrassing go be a dam Bills fan so your QB can have the strongest arm in the league yet he’s won nothing significant since he’s been in the dam league besides your heart he’s won your heart by having a rocket arm we gotta see what’s his consolation prize for winning arm of the year award. This is just dumb they benched him to help him because he has all the tools but wasn’t playing up to par benched him he  focused on his technique and came back and started doing what was expected what crow would they even be eating this is ignorant.
    • https://x.com/avl_mike/status/1863950938467189041 Incredible job by Brandt Tilis. Maybe Tepper has finally hired the right group and will stay out of the way. For reference, Dead Money for the past few seasons: 2021: $53.9M 2022: $52.4M 2023: $62.1M 2024: $69.3M 2025: $1.9M All that waste and ineptitude for 17 wins over the past 63 games... Fitterer deserves to be extradited back to CLT to stand trial for war crimes against this franchise. The one caveat is we'll never know how much meddling Tepper actually did, but the results speak for themselves... one of the worst GM tenures in NFL history. Look at this nonsense from this season alone in dead money: Von Bell: $9.9M Hayden Hurst: $9.8M Donte Jackson: $9.7M Diontae Johnson: $9.4M Bradley Bozeman: $7.2M Justin Houston: $3.8M DJ Chark: $3.1M Just such organizational dysfunction, from top to bottom. These weren't even good players. That 2025 dead money number will go up some with the probable release of Miles Sanders, Ian Thomas, etc., but nothing even remotely close to the sheer recklessness and stupidity of the Fitterer Era. Hopefully, we will look back in a few years and see this as the moment where we started to reemerge from the abyss... One can hope... Keep Pounding!!
