can someone explain why the try and land it inside the 20?

why not just kick it out of play inside the 20? surely that's just as easy and negates the chance of a return?

Well if you kick it out its 100% to start on the 20...what if he kicks it too the 10yard line or 15yard line..both better than 20 yes?? what if fair catch is dropped??? you havent really thought this 1 out have yer

if you mean from kick off, then its a foul to kick it out of bound (Sidelines) and they get the ball on the 30

If you are punting you would rather get it inside the 20 than risk going out of bounds at the 10 and messing it up

You are correct, spotted where it goes out of bounds from a punt

cheers bawdeep. thought i was right

that's why i don't understand why they don't smash it out of bounds more often to stop dangerous returners

they sometimes do

but bigplays can come from nailing the receiver

Its pretty hard to do to be honest, 9/10 men running at you.

However for the players like Hester who is a great punt returner they are happy to kick it less yards to make sure they have no chance of a return

I think with a lot of punters it takes all their effort to kick it straight and keep it out of the endzone, if they start trying to drop it out of play in the first 10 their heads will explode!

they've got 20 yards to play with though?

rugby league players seem to do it well

Sorry to Hijack your thread,but I have another Question

This week 1 of the Teaser's was Colt's -3 & Miami +10.5
Colt's 20 - Texan's 17 = ( Draw ), Patriot's 27 - Miami 17 = (+10.5 )

So is the Teaser a Loosing bet ?

i would guess it's a loser but wouldn't know for sure mate

who did you place bet with?...if a book then probably settled as a loss as you need both sides to win - or could be a push...strange they use whole numbers and not .5 increments

thank's , Jontyblade

I think 1 of the Downfall's with NFL coach's , is they've Been CONDITIONED to one line of Thought which often lead's to " OUT- SMARTING Themself's "

Saw it on HERE , thought of taking it But there was No-Interest in any Teaser's @ that stage. Then fail to Check it again = No Bet,

As We All think Both MUST WIN.
Report Princess Purple Guitar November 8, 2009 10:02 PM GMT
ahh well if on here, it must have had a .5 increment as that is what theirs always have....i expect it was 3.5 not 3...although i have been known to be wrong but i would say i am 99% certain that BF have .5 in all handicaps and teasers etc.
