Maynard13 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 There’s a reason why a team has both a punter and a FG kicker. One guy punts the other guy kicks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcoops Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Ammendola was really impressive. Quite amazing that he was able to punt at a high standard in his first NFL game. Let's just hope, when he finally gets to do his actual job kicking FGs and EPs, that he is even more successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember when kickers and punters also played other positions, like linemen and linebackers. And hit 60% of their field goals, Pat McAfee talked about it on one of his podcasts. They really don't like doing it, and the practices can mess up your leg/knee. Also, then if you lost that kicker/punter, you literally have no special teams.

The least of my concerns is Amendola having the stamina to kick a ball a few extra times a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origen Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I think the bigger issue is that no one is there to catch and place the ball for Ammendola to kick without Mann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albaniajet Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Ballsy performance by Ammendola. His ability to punt - something not in his job description - kept this from being another jet-like embarrassing blowout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayton163v Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 A fine performance by Ammendola. I have only two thoughts. First, we should have instantly tried him at Defensive End, Guard, Center and Safety. Hey, the dude was on fire. How bad could it be? Second, you realize what this means? He is our PICKER (I refuse to call him our KUNTER). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
