Amazing Thomas Morstead Stat (1 Viewer)

[greg985]

Thomas Morstead has rebounded from a difficult 2015 to be the top punter of the first half. He has been above average in all three major areas, but in particular, his ball placement stands out. He is the only punter in the NFL who has not landed a ball between the hashes in the first eight weeks, placing only eight punts inside the numbers.

I know a lot of people don't like Bleacher Report, but still Morstead is having and incredible year.

#1 in the league in an era where there are a number of great punters is impressive. Other impressive punters (Andy Lee, Marquette King, and the eternal Shane Lechler)

MVP! MVP! MVP!

He's headed for All Pro this year.

He has a shot to be considered the greatest punter of all-time.

Another reason Wil Lutz was a huge get is it greatly reduces the wear and tear on Morestead's leg.

That and his kick placement has limited the amount of tackles he ends up having to make (we don't need him getting injured making tackles like he has in the past...)

Even with that being the case:

How? Hasn't it been at least two years since he's done kickoffs? Or were you aiming more at a field position meaning perhaps?

I watched a video (maybe YouTube) with a head to head punting competition between King and Morestead. King's power was significantly less than Morestead. They were even doing drop kick style field goals from something like 70 yards out. It was impressive.
