Mitch Wishnowsky - Punter (Utah) is a 49er

That snap was a little at his ear. Mitch did a good job of getting it down for Robbie to win it. Great job, Wish!

COOL MITCH !!!

HE SHOULD get a game ball for that catch and save !!

He didn't have a great game on KO or punts. He is a hair inconsistent. I expect that to improve in coming years.

Most, if not all KO went into endzone. Granted, most if not all came out again. What do you want him to do? Kick it into 2nd tier of the stands??
In college he had booming punts, but they went so far, getting coverage was an issue. Now, he doesn't try for obscene distance, he tries to NOT out-kick his coverage. If people are not happy with what is normally safe, but want to give returners more room to force a coverage breakdown, then I think you will never be happy with Mitch.
Saints, simply put, have a return guru who will almost always get yards. Man he was shifty.

Yep, he didn't even have time to spin it. Fortunately, when he set it down the laces were on the correct side.

He comes from the land down under.

Ideally, on the punts, I would've had him directionally kick it out of bounds. That's the only thing I would've done different.

Such an elite punter. He's been consistently good all season.

Just to emphasize, that ball came out high...and way right. How WISH got that sucker down is just a sheer mystery. By rights he shouldn't have. Also keep in mind his talents are with his feet, rarely using hands in OZ ball. But he handled that snap like a dealer at the Vegas blackjack tables. Slick, neat , and most nobody noticed how bad that snap was .

Incredible effort for a guy not known for his hands. This was one slick job and won us the game. Thanks Mitch.

Yes I agree. The team had to keep it away from Harris because no one could tackle yesterday. I was anticipating that Mitch would get impatient with Harris ruining his stats and just go up and horse collar him to teach him a lesson.

He's not worthy of a 4th draft pick. Just an average punter you could have signed for undfa.
