    He started on the absolute bottom rung of the ladder in coaching. I would say he earned his spot through his own merits,

    Wow this is a perfect example of it's not WHAT you know it's who BLOW. This guy is good at something and ain't punting, Art knows. This fan base is gonna start turning on this front office soon, AFC championship game to dumpster fire quick.

    It was the blocking, not the punter

    The block yes, but the shank was on the punter

    The blocking wasn’t good on the blocked punt, but he literally punted the ball into the guy seeing him running straight at him. At that point run or tuck and fall. There was zero reason to try and get that punt off. The botched punt was 100% on him...and I blame Vrabel and co. for having that bum start in the first place.

    Um, my understanding is the dude from last week who had his punt blocked for a TD is, get this, STILL on the roster. The dude cut is the guy from the week before, who actually looked pretty decent.

    Being a FedEx trust fund kid doesn't make you stick through 3 or 4 different coaching changes. You also don't work your way from college assistant to NFL OC though your connections. Id say he has a love for the game and earned his position. The dude probably doesn't even need to work.

    Oh come on. You cant blame the punter for that. Completely unreasonable expectation.

    So in your mind, any blocked punt is the punters fault, as they could have simply foreshadowed the block and tucked and taken the hit?

    Can you imagine the abuse a punter would get if they did this? There'd be 5 times as many people saying he should have kept going with the punt as there was every chance the blocker wouldnt get there in time to touch the ball.

    Partly, but had he not done a side step, that one wouldve been blocked too. Watch it again.
