it may be hard to find in the 10 trillion hours of Pat Mac ranting endlessly, however, to summarize he was talking the technical aspects of punting and to paraphrase he effectively said Lee was just straight banging the ball or trying to kick that thing as hard as he can, or a one punt guy, while Wish has every club in the big and an array of different ways to approach or strike the ball, generate spin and so forth to lay it up or cause problems for return men

I just watched Pat talk about "the greatest Punt of all time" on YouTube, not really sure how to share the link.

Well s**t I guess punters should just focus on being able to punt every style rather than just bombing a punt if that's what makes you good. Stupid Matt Araiza shoulda learned how to kick a knuckler rather than being able to flip field positions from his own 10. Puny punt god
he's hitting banana balls, he's legit created turnovers with those dif styles from return men trying to handle the knuckleball

I saw an article this morning about how the Chiefs might take Harrison Butker off kickoffs, and use Justin Reid instead - stating with the new kickoff rules the kicker could become more involved in tackling than before. Makes me wonder if we might go back to using Wish instead of Moody.

This is a good point. There is nothing funnier than seeing kickers and punters avoid tackling. Not sure Moody can tackle whereas we know Mitch is eager to hunt them down even if he gets a penalty.
Irony is that the contact aspect is the very reason Mitch took to the Gridiron in the first place after having shoulder injuries in Aussie Rules.
The other aspect of this new rule will be who they pick as returners?

You're describing him like he's P52. Expecting Mitch to be a consistent NFL level tackler is rediculous. I know it's hard but let's keep our Aussie bias in check.

thanks to Shanny we ain't often punting from the own 10, a lot of Mitch's boots are not trying to punt into the endzone, he's having to lay it up or pin them inside the 20. that's where you need dif clubs other than the driver. give me Mitch

In addition to being a tactician punting the ball, yes Mitch will tackle. He can also run it on fakes. Dude is an actual football player, rather than a guy who kicks the ball and relies on rules and teammates to protect him. I'm happy he's a 49er.
