Seahawks Punt Team gives up 15 yards on punts FOR THE SEASON!

WTF? How bad, and for how long have our Special Teams been VERY NOT SPECIAL?

What are the odds that Condotta could write an article that is actually interesting?

Basically Ryan kicks a weird ball ... giving time for the SP teams to cover, most of his are fair caught

Exactly, the Seahawks obviously have changed the way they run the punt team. They've adjusted; unlike the Huskies of the past 12 years, who have had no clue how to make adjustments to the kicking game.

For those of us in here old to remember Don James' teams, at least one win a year could have been credited to Special Teams' play. We lose one or two games a year now because of shitty Special Teams, and nobody seems to care. With average Special Teams, we beat Stanford this year. Beat Stanford, and everything might have been different.

So 42 percent is now considered most? Good mathematics as always.

Get a left footed kicker. Ball spins different.

Don't make fun of the Libtard Arts Majors in here, who don't own calculators.

Having gunners like Maxwell and Lane, combined with down-under kicking style is the main reason. That, and Ryan doesn't try to bomb his kicks anymore, are the main reasons for the high fair-catch percentage and low return yardage.

In conclusion, he has avoided outkicking his coverage, unlike this guy:

Or a blick kicker. The elongated tendon in their achilles is beneficial.
