Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 1138245, member: 289"] I guess I'm a member of that tribe but I do think that the rigid "I've regretted not punting but never punting" philosophy is overdone. I'd punt if we are in our own territory and if there's more than a couple of yards to go and we are in the other team's territory. The presentce of a good "place" punter like Riley Dixon makes it more of a weapon than it usually is. A Dixon punt is certainly better than a Norton field goal attempt. But if you've crossed midfield, are not in chip shot range and you have only a couple of yards to make, give it a shot. Make them play defense for four downs and maybe keep some promsing drives going. [/QUOTE]
