Message: [QUOTE="upperdeck, post: 4430325, member: 474"] the rule is to protect the punter in a clear punting position.. snapping and recovery is not a clear punting position.. The punter protection ends once its not clear if he is running or punting.. No different than rugby style when they slide out of the tackle box. if you choice to punt in a strange way then the protection ends. says this happened at the 50 and the punter is running away from you and then decided to punt the wrong direction as you are about to tackle him, how would the tackler know he is even punting.
