dave mcbride Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I don't remember Moorman putting one inside the ten all year. I thought he stunk this season. That is an important part of the job. He never even tried to put one out of bounds either. Dehavens failings? 27.8 percent of his punts ended up inside the 20 this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) 27.8 percent of his punts ended up inside the 20 this season. Here's the punting stats for 2011. http://www.nfl.com/s...&seasonType=REG Unfortunately they don't break it down to % of punts inside the 20… or even how many were attempted. That should be a readily-available stat, IMO. Regardless, my impression of Moorman's season in terms of pinning the opponents back was one of disappointment.

It's here: http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/2797/brian-moorman. His rate this year was 27.8 percent, and his lifetime rate is 28.2 percent. His touchback rate was 13.9 percent, which is over his lifetime rate of 9.1 percent. Edited January 10, 2012 by dave mcbride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowery4 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) This didn't seem to be an issue a few years ago, I find those stats a bit hard to believe (I remember a few seasons when Jaroun was coach that the inside the 20 thing Moorman was league leader, sorry don't have a link for it). I was a bit disappointed with Bruce Dehaven this year, I know he is a hero in some ways with this franchise but STs were bad at getting us anything at all this year. Anybody agree? Denver is the only game I remember that they flat out did great. I realize as I type this that stupid rule change has something to do with it. I know he has a philosophy of letting the other team have a KO and trying to get them behind the 20 also, which seemed to work well most of the time but on the receiving side of things and punts we have done better. BTW you do bring in competition at camp but it is Moorman's job to lose, he has been a good punter and a great Bill.

I wish there was one chart which compared all punters in every category. I've actually always thought that there could be a different set of punting stats for any punt attempted on the opponents side of the 50-yard line. I don't know why this area of stats is so undeveloped as of right now. I'm sure the info is somewhere but it's not readily available.
