Thread: How can finding a decent punter be so difficult?

    That punt traveled almost 60 yards. We haven't had punts like that in Pit for a while. I dont think the returner even expected it to carry that far. The 'putting-it-away-and-locking-the-door' TD was on Wing.

    Left footed punts are definitely more difficult to control. They spin the opposite direction and most people don't see them all that often.

    Just like the water spinning down the toilet in the opposite direction, our Aussie punter spins it the opposite way.
    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

    • The Steelers signed not one but two punters in the past week, bringing back Brad Wing for another year and adding second-year pro Richie Leone to the practice squad. That would make it appear they’re setting up a competition for Latrobe. They aren’t. Although Wing put up some duds at bad times this season, Mike Tomlin fell in love with his directional ability as well as his knack for dropping beauties inside the 20. The staff feels he’s got the leg to make up for the other deficiencies once he adds confidence.
