Carpenter made 91.7 percent of his field goals and finished the season by converting 29 straight from inside 50-yards. Brian Moorman has spent much of his career with the Bills, but things have been rocky recently. He was released in 2012 but brought back in 2013 to replace his successor. Moorman finished the season with one of the worst average yards per punt of his career, but he has out-kicked his training camp competition to keep a spot on the team, for now. The Bills return game also struggled last year. Both their kick and punt return teams were ranked near the bottom of the league. Leodis McKelvin and Marquise Goodwin shared the duties, but the Bills will be on the lookout for other options. Prediction The Buffalo Bills are talented, but they’ve finished under .500 for nine consecutive years. If EJ Manuel can stay healthy, they have the ability to surprise some teams. In a crowded AFC, it will likely take another year before the Bills can consider themselves a legitimate threat to the better teams in the league. GEORGE GOJKOVICH/GETTY IMAGES SPORT
