Apparently, Podlesh has been placed on the Reserve/Did Not Report list...

I'm optimistic that Wing can keep 'em flying high...













See what I did there???:p
 
but can he do it consistently? I do not want to see short punts...........
 
Which idiot punter can we bring in to compete?
 
Once cuts are made they can sign someone else if Wing continues to struggle.

Me thinks he will be just fine. That forced fumble was caused because of such a great hang time.
 
I;m hoping his first 2-3 punts were just jitters. New kid, Pro level, all the hype / family, went to head. Coaches talked him down and then he had a pretty good day. Let him punt again, maybe first one bad, maybe two, then he settle down and good day again. The more game time, the more comfortable he will get. THEN his big leg / hang time will really show. Competition is good, but I'm thinking this kid will come through. (least ways I'm pulling for him)

Make it easier and save a roster spot. Lose the punter completely and go for it on 4th down. Worst case, Ben can punt from shotgun.

Are you a Punter? Just curious................

I've read in the past that Ben is actually a half decent punter.

Ben has been known to punt, but, you would really want to bring in Kordel Stewart. Now he was a punter, 80yrds or so!!!!!

He could probably use the money to pay for that divorce.
 
The idiot head coach today said we are not bringing in another punter


He actually said not as we stand here right now and that he wasn't opposed to the idea. :50-:56 in the vid.

I'm still skeptical about writing off Podlesh, he has been taking care of a birth complication with his wife ..as I understand it. This may just be a paperwork "cover your ***" thing with the Steelers and will allow them to let him compete in the future, during the preseason. It's not like either one of them is front page material.
 
Yeah, Chip, but there's less drama with your theory.


Yes sir, as many here have see in the Dri Archer thread, its all about the DRAMA!!!!!! lol

Nice summary, Franco - way to miss the golden ring...

It's not like we haven't had serious problems at punter the last 5 years and have used poor retreads and mediocre rookies , we finished last in the NFL last year in gross and net punting. The idiot can't seem to be able to evaluate punters among his other faults.
 
Take whichever of the Ravens' punters who gets cut - Sam Koch or Richie Leone - and the problem is solved.
