Dan Carpenter must be thrilled that his new team (Bills) beat us in both meetings this years; especially the first game where his field goal sealed it for them.

I like Carp. I would not have drafted a kicker in the 5th and gone with a rookie.
Carp cost us games both as a Phin and a Bill! Regardless of Sturgis output, Carp had to go. Also he is not a Pirate!

Carp was awful for us last year and guess what, Sturgis has sucked this year, too.
Figures that our GM, the former kicker, can't get a decent ****ing kicker in here.

Carp cost us 2 games last season with poor kicking. Now this year he had a good season, but based on 2012 it appeared that he was losing his accuracy.
Sturgis hit a rough patch but came through it. By cutting Carp, it motivated him to improve his accuracy. Good luck to Buffalo on picking up a decent player but I'm still comfortable with the Ireland decision. Nobody knows kickers like the Irish...

BTW J David Wannyheimer - If you are the official driver of the move Mike Pouncey to guard bandwagon, I volunteer to be the official navi-Gator.
Better watch your speed on those icy mountain roads in that nice Viper...(not as nice as the mustang though)

I am on that bus. Pouncey is a good fill in at center, but he is better off at guard. The tea should make a serious run for Alex Mack...a much better..proven...player.
OK Langer72, we welcome you on board the bandwagon - you can make the tea.

He also mustve liked being kicked out of the playoffs by week 10
Good point - but in the words of the iconic and modest chick magnet/ legend, Chris Berman "Nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills"

Neither Carp nor Sturgis is satisfactory. Carp turned bad after a good start to his career, but I'm terrified every time Sturgis steps up. Let's face it, Sturgis doesn't even look like an athlete. He looks like he needs directions to a chess club meeting.
My favorite Miami kicker was Pete Stoyanovich. Pete was money and consistent.
We need to keep looking for a kicker. There are some great kickers out there. The Rams', Broncos' and Ravens' kickers to name three without trying. Sturgis is not quality.
