I didnt even realize Martin had been here three years.  In the "old dreary days" I actively followed or punters, recall the quote of the years from Jauron?, "we punted well" or Bills fan extolling the great prowres of Brian Moorman our own Bills MVP.  

 

Now with this offense, punting is about my last concern, biggest concern I have is our special teams coach and punted getting blocked due to mis assignments/alignments.


it wasn’t that long ago that we were stressing over old Bojo and his horrendous holding! I think you must have blocked that out of your Bills memory!

She's a punter's daughter.  Her father was Rick Tuten. 

 

 

Ah, I remember hearing about that.  But what I said still stands.

Robbins was possibly the worst Punter in the League in 2023. Camarda was picked in Round 4 of 2022 (which is like the Punter equivelant of going 1st overall). He was very good in 2022 and 2023, winning Special Teams Player of the Week honors as a Rookie and Special Teams Player of the Month in 2023. He was cut in 2024 after a new Special Teams coordinator came in and after a little bit of a slump. Most fans felt it was an odd release as after 2 solid years, they booted him after a bad month and a half. 

 

I think Camarda is the clear favorite and the more talented Punter. His performance that led to his release was still better than Robbins' 2023. Robbins' might have a better story, but Camarda has thus far proven to be the better Punter. 

 

Don't disagree with you but Camarda also only had a 35.5-yard net average  last season on punts, 2nd worst in the league.  Maybe that was fluke last year., who knows??

Why do punters not "coffin-corner" kick anymore?

Because like a bunt In baseball it's becoming a lost skill

 

Punters used to value hang time and accuracy as much as distance... Now distance is King 

 

And coaches think they can teach hang time and accuracy more easy but hang time is tough to master

Thats insane to me. A former NFL punter's daughter married a NFL Kicker.

 

There’s probably a chapter on that in the Psych books on Daddy Issues.

Bootin' Rick Tuten doesn't need to be mentioned... his legend is far too great.
