Sorry Ruhskins. It does beat the Booger McFarland Thread:smashfrea IMO. And Im pissed we didnt pick up Hunter if we had the chance.

Also, If you read the posts on that thread you will notice most of them are ignorant due to the fact that they assume Johnson is much better when they obviously have not checked the stats. This thread gives the reader a clear comparison between Plack and Johnson. It amazes me how little credit most fans give to the punting position.

I'm gonna quote myself from the other thread:

Is this somehow and upgrade? In his 7 year career he's only averaged over 42yds/punt twice.

Hey, my Booger McFarland thread can beat a 2nd thread about a punter any time!

By the way, Matt Stover is available, I think the Ravens are letting him go. I know he's really old, but he's still a good kicker.

Stover says Ravens no longer want him -- baltimoresun.com

I guess they just want a little ore competition maybe?

I like the yearly punter competition; it gives us something to look forward to.

This move shows that we made punting priority number 10

thank you tramplethe elderly. It's always good to notice a man who enjoys his chuck norris jokes. It is rumored that he masturbates using a monkey wrench and a blow torch.

This is exactly why I started the Johnson vs Plack thread. It clearly showed the stats. And the fact that Johnson is actually a downgrade to Plack. But it got merged so its in here somewhere.

I know eventually I'll drop it, but do people realize that out of 53 punts last season Hunter Smith had 2 Touchbacks. And 43% inside the 20.

I guess we don't mind 1st and 10 at the 40 YL for the opposing teams on punts. Im optomistic but. We are still the same ol Skins in many ways.

By the way. Why can't we see who's on-line at the top of the page anymore?
