26CornerBlitz Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 McDermott loves punting. He went for a 4th down conversion in yesterday's game. I give him credit for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sullim4 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I don't understand this at all... our guy is solid and knows the wind pattern in Orchard Park. Why give that up? If anything, the K position has been the one that's been worrisome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhDozeBills Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Interesting...Colton has been pretty solid. Not sure what games you're watching but he has been very inconsistent. Week 1 I think he averaged 36 yards. Yesterday he had a great game. Last year he had some horrible games and cost us valuable field position.

Buftex Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Makes sense. Schmidt didn't kick too well yesterday. I thought he was great...averaged 50 yards a punt, with a 45 yard net, on 6 punts. I have to believe, perhaps, he is dinged up...it wouldn't make a lot of sense to dump him too...unless they are afraid they will have a hard time re-signing at a later date!

Filed position is the least of my worries, it is such an antiquated argument. You only have to win field position when you have a bad team. Flipping the field doesn't mean a damn if you have an offense that cant move the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only have to win field position when you have a bad team. Flipping the field doesn't mean a damn if you have an offense that cant move the ball. How is field position an antiquated argument?? That makes no sense to say that field position doesn't matter. There literally would never be a situation when you would rather give your opponent the ball at their own 30 instead of their own 20. Why would we not upgrade the punter if we can do so for essentially the same cost? Edited September 18, 2017 by Cheektavegas Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you pin them down at the 5. they get three-5 yards punt, your offense goes three and out. Repeat,repeat. how does flipping the field work out? you get the game you saw yesterday.

BADOLBILZ Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Mc Derpunt ? McKickitt maybe? Any drive that ends in a kick seems to thrill him. The unbridled joy of McDermott sending Hauschka out to attempt a long field goal(which he luckily doinked in off the upright) after they finally saw the other side of the field with a decent drive was kinda' bizarre.........but not new for those of us in this fanbase that can remember back 8-10 years ago. Gotta' play to win on the road........playing not to lose........you usually lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Panthers had better field position on some of those FG drives, they could have been touchdowns. I can't believe you're trying to argue that field position doesn't matter. It may not be the most important thing in a game, but to say it doesn't matter is ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at least the coaching staff and front office realizes we are going to be punting a lot so have to load up ST players similar to the Dick 'The Stiff' Jauron days.
