Buffalo is a tough place to make 50+ yd FG. On the other hand he was 39/44 (89%) inside 50 yards the last 2 years. 

Right, but for comparison purposes, Heinz Field is even tougher, yet middling Kicker Chris Boswell is 8/11 from 50+ in his career to date.

At 35, Hauschka is close to being toast.  Still an upgrade over Maher/Ficken, however. 

And Hauschka being cut is not purely a performance-based decision; the Bills just used a 6th round pick on a Kicker in April.

8/11 isn’t that much better 5/12.  Yes Pittsburgh isn’t like playing in a dome but Buffalo has the worst elements in the nfl hands down

 

Hauschka was also good in Seattle and kicked in big games

72% vs 42%.  Pretty big difference.

 

is Maher not our guy now?  Would have thought he could take the job. EDIT:  looked up his stats - was AWFUL last year.

We have Ficken who was not bad last year which was essentially his rookie season

  I like egg rolls. This Thread is so unimportant I would just like to take the time to let you know that I like egg rolls. Do you guys like egg rolls?

If last year taught us anything it's that kickers are not important...oh wait
