Message: [QUOTE="TDTOrange, post: 75003, member: 509"] 80% of the time opponents are punting from near midfield since our defense can't stop anyone quickly, which results in short, high punts intended to pin us deep, this also forces us to play "punt safe" which involves playing regular defense with a Rene subbed in for Shamarko to field the punt. Not ideal for returns. In the remaining 20%, we attempted to block one punt and got called for roughing. We have not attempted to pressure any punt since for fear of getting another flag. This results in the coverage team not needing to stay in to block and thus getting quick releases downfield for coverage. Finally, the opponent's punters are well rested and often get off good coverage kicks. (Note: all figures are approximate and are by no means intended to be an accurate statistic) [/QUOTE]
