DieHard 2,061 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Thanks Dustin! You had a hell of a leg. Averaged 67.5 punts a game for a few years. West, kccrow and SEMO 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike QBs, being a great punter never is correlated with whether a team is winning or not, which I think we can see from Colquitt's career. Even when the offense was bad, all those guys I mentioned were much better at contributing to points and wins. No one is saying that he wasn't a good punter or that he wasn't valuable on some level. But to suggest he was ever offensive team MVP just misunderstands the relative value of positions and plays within football. Wholeheartedly agree. I've been pushing the analytics of punting on Chiefs' fans for a decade to no avail. Overall, you may as well shove your head in the sand. So long as you have an NFL-caliber punter, that's really all you need. Cycle a UDFA every 4 years and call it a day. Any gains over and above that are negligible.

Supposed to be a great locker room guy that gets respect from others. I wouldn't mind him staying in the organization if no other team is wiling to pay him for a year or two.
