What was the explanation for punting on the Jets 33 yard line?

We wound up netting 13 yards on the punt.... going for it would’ve been better than punting unless we could get a coffin corner punt out at the 1 yard line, which we couldn’t.

Yes, in retrospect, it would have been better to go for it.  But ideally you would hope your punter is able to pin the opposing team in that situation.

Until Santoso starts missing a bunch of kicks, I'm going to blame Rhule and his overly conservative gameplan before I assume Santoso is incapable of making a 50 yard kick, particularly since he was 1 for 1 from 50+ in the preseason and outside of the missed XP, has been hitting his kicks right down the middle. Remember when Rivera would punt every time we had a potential 50+ yarder with Gano and he has been one of the most accurate long ball kickers since then? Could be seeing flashes of that. I also think if we were playing a high flying offense like Tampa or KC, no way we don't either go for it or kick the fg.

      I know it was obvious and I know the ref is to blame! But KB is a bum and my original post was about the situation in its entirety. You are right, he did touch him and that's why I said lay down on him to make it obvious. But KB did everything half assed and that is why he had less than a five year career. But the way Cam supported that kid and the way he ended up acting in the end is a dark spot on the franchise. It just doesn't sit well with me and never will. He literally left here talking about ball placement from a league MVP.

      The Lee Hunter interview with Sheena Quick almost murdered me. That man said he had a 5 years old and a 2 munt year old!! 😂 and all of a sudden I couldn’t breathe!!

      DLine has to be 50-79 or 90-99. So it’s likely to stay 92 over 62 or 52. Scourton and Phillips can wear a poo ton of numbers as “linebackers”, but the war daddy’s are still pretty limited.
