He obviously thought it was a fake FG pass, but he was the only one...rookie mistake. Sarcasm, right??? Rookie mistake or rookie hazing? Lol "Hey rook, coach just said he wants you to try a pass on this one, I swear we are all going to get open for the pass, hehehe!" Or he was trying out for a local production of the Peanuts Christmas play and he really wants the part of Lucy? 1 minute ago, BringBackOrton said: I believe he thought they called a fake.

Yeah, watched alot of NFL games, dont normally see the kicker or punter cut because of one single bad play in their rookie season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do poorly, you get launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well his kicking has been top notch so far. As a rookie, he's one of the best punters in the league.

whatdrought Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I understand the jokes about punting, but good teams do have good punters. (Best punter in nfl Plays for the rams) So if we ever become good, we’ll have a good punter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I’m glad he was able to keep playing today. He came out after halftime with his arm wrapped up and Hauschka was practicing punting. I was all “yuh-oh.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he would just punt the ball through the endzone instead of trying to put it inside the 20 all the time his average would be better... right? Idiot kickers.

Do you discount Drew Brees TD passes because he has the most pass attempts? 1 hour ago, BringBackOrton said: Our punter must be the only one trying to put in inside the 20.

No. When he places it inside the 20 as many times as he does, his average is affected. Drew Brees doesn't have the most pass attempts. Two punters punt from the 50. If you put it on the 10, its a 40 yard punt. If you punt into the EZ, it's a 30 yard punt. Not sure what point you're making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put it on the 10, its a 40 yard punt. If you punt into the EZ, it's a 30 yard punt. Not sure what point you're making. The point is, as of today, nearly half of his punts have been inside the 20 (15 of 31), yet the stat you’re focusing on is the average distance of his punts. If he kicked the ball further on those punts what good does that do? If he’s kicking from his 45 a punt downed within the 10 is going to decrease his average distance, yet it’s a good punt. By NFL rankings, taking into account game situations, average yd per return, total and net yardage, etc he’s ranked 5th in the league, but carry on with your explanation of how he sucks.
