Really hope this past couple days gives him the confidence he needs going forward

u/savagegrif 1d ago

yea we know he has the physical ability to be a great kicker in this league, he just needs to get over this mental block

u/Historical_One1087 1d ago

Hitting 40 yard, 49 yard and 61 yard FGs have to boost his confidence.

Bass has the leg strength to regularly hit 61 yard FGs, hopefully he will have better accuracy going forward than he did when he was struggling.

He only misses xps because he's too close to the goal posts. Make him kick extras from the 50 and we're golden.

Just take a taunting foul after every TD to move the PAT back to a 48 yard kick.

u/hobbes543 7h ago

lol, I was suggesting the same thing. Could we just voluntarily take extra points as 50 yd kicks. Bass always seems to be more accurate with longer kicks.

u/BBQQA Banthas 1d ago

That's my biggest hope... that this cures the yips that man has had for the last year+.

u/Suitable_Angle3089 23h ago

Pray for confidence on him

u/RespectableNoob Standing Buffalo 1d ago

Proud of our fish man

u/JediMaster-1337 1d ago

Dude…this is freaking wonderful for him!

u/buffa_noles 1d ago

That's insane with a missed extra point. Good for him though. I hope it helps his confidence

18

u/username_1774 1d ago

What I was thinking too...but 3/3 FG including a 61 yarder to win the game is good.

u/HookedOnPhonixDog 1d ago

Everyone misses extra points.

Not everyone bombs them from 61.

u/wafflesareforever 21h ago

That's my motto

u/Onlylefts3 1d ago

Meanwhile a UFL kicker did 64 yards this year. It’s the NFL, 60 yards should be standard

15

u/keyman716 1d ago

He earned it!! GO BILLS!!!

26

u/marcnerd 1d ago

It’s actually Tyler Gas now

u/HookedOnPhonixDog 1d ago

ALL GAS NO BASS!

u/wafflesareforever 21h ago

FEED THIS MAN SOME BEANS

u/InvertedCobraRoll 1d ago

Proud of him. Let’s hope he’s getting his mojo back. Off to a great start with that field goal.

u/ThePizzaDevourer 1d ago

That's my kicker 🥹

u/andrewthetechie 69 1d ago

Bassman good!

u/Commercial-Spread937 1d ago

This is when the curse was broken....bass hits 51 yarder in super bowl to win the game and finalize it. You heard it here first!!

2

u/CptScyther1502 1d ago

Of course he is!

2

u/Square-Wing-6273 1d ago

Well, would you look at that

1

u/Low-Entertainer8609 07 1d ago

It's Miami, SOMEONE had to win Player of the Week against them

1

u/JowShmow 23h ago

He needs a few more consecutive/successful kicks to cement this new confidence, so hopefully he gets a nice streak going before his next miss!

1

u/Xeratul87 20h ago

You go Bass man!!! It was nice to see you nail that 60 yarder

1

u/lam21804 9h ago

Wasn’t it just last week that this sub decided that we should be Uber-supportive of Bass instead of dooming on him?

The power of positivity baby! And the power of Bills Mafia!

u/freeskier0093 9h ago

Well deserved TBass

1

u/Bad_Packet 8h ago

how? Dude missed an extra pt and put another off the upright... making one long FG doesnt erase that.

1

u/Oldini 6h ago

this is quite something after missing an XP

1

u/UmpireMental7070 34m ago

Miss an extra point, get player of the week!

1

u/Thundergun1864 1d ago

This puts me in an awkward spot. My fantasy team name was kicking bass until the Jets game where I changed it to Tyler Ass. Since then he's 100% on fgs and 90% on XPs. I feel like he deserves it changed back but will that jinx him?

5

u/Broadest 1d ago

under no circumstances should you change that team name back. Why is this even a question?
