Something that continues to go undiscussed on here, Jason Baker...

[CardiacCats]

and how terrible he has been.

Discuss.

[nosuchthingasapanther]

he's not as bad as this thread.

[jtnc]

I agree, good thing he is in a contract year. It's time to find a better punter.

I mean yeah I've never seen him this bad. He's always been average, but this year he has been below it.

[Herb]

Fortunately punting is the least of our worries this season. We actually have an offense now.

[Cyberjag]

Is it Baker or the coverage?

I think its more of coverage problem, hes been bootin them deep from wat i seen except a few bad punts... BUT dont 4get them 2 punt returns we have allowed so far really hurt his numbers and the opposing teams return man is averagin 10-15 yrds a return on our bad coverage

[Montsta]

The times we have been just outside of FG range and Rivera has opted to punt it and Baker kicked it into the endzone for a net 16, yes that is Baker's fault, not the coverage.

[KillerKat]

The wrong kicking guy was cut

[Jackofalltrades]

Baker is fine, coverage has been a damn joke. Forget the Bears game already?

[WolfpackPantherMan]

As bad as the punt coverage team has been, the punt return team is 10x worse.

[ladypanther]

His leg is prolly still tired from last year.

[RevJ]

I still say if we could kick to ourselves, we'd be much better off.

Yep. Literally for a couple years with the John Fox mentality Jason Baker was our best player. OK, this year he is averaging 40 YPP as opposed to 42.6 YPP for his career.

Jason Baker is the least of our worries.
