What's up with our Ginger?

Punter Tim Masthay has punted 11 times for 448 yards with a long of 56. That averages just under 41 yards a punt. For comparison sake, Masthay has not averaged less than 43.5 yards a punt during an entire regular season since 2010.

Mathay's eight punts went for 36, 51, 56, 44, 45, 46, 39 and 29 yards against the Steelers. While his overall average for the Steelers game (43.3) topped his average for Patriots game (34.0) I am thinking the Packers need to bring in another punter.

Any Punter's out there or is the lack of a quality replacement the reason the Packers are going for it on 4th down so often?

I wish they would have brought a couple of guys in to compete with him.

edit: Or take a trip to Australia to see what they could find.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Adding to this, our Ginger punted four times for a whopping average of 37.2 yards. What the hell is up with Ginger?

If we get rid of Masthay, we need to find somebody who can hold. Hey, let's try Barclay - he's got a lot of experience holding.

Michael Koenen was recently released. Although, I don't know if I want another release Punter, add Frost type of situation again.

I now cringe every time the guy drops back to punt, I'm expecting either a shank or a low line drive that's easily returned. He is going to cost us a lot of field position this year. Keep the fourth quarterback and have him hold for Crosby, and sign a college kid with a big leg. Do it now before the season starts.

I think Masthay will be fine.
He's just not scheming or tipping his hand in meaningless games. 😂

dfosterf (18m) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (19m) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (21m) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (24m) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (27m) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (27m) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (29m) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (31m) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (32m) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (1h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (1h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (2h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (2h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (2h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?
