Being able to flip the field will pay dividends. Last year our D was constantly defending short fields. If they were able to make a stop and force a punt, our inept offense would be pinned deep, go 3 & out and Hedley would be punting from inside our own 20. Vicious cycle. Field position isn't a **** stat but it'll **** you all the same.

We are just a couple of seasons from our nightmare run with punters... what a relief to not worry about kicking the **** ball...

Also him being an Aussie punter who rolls to the right, he always has the ability to just hold the ball and run the fake if they bail out on that side.

don’t be shocked if we fake a couple punts this year when we get desperate.

Honestly, was waiting for exactly this at least once last year....
