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. 😂

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
