Hart - averaged 60 yards per punt
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:16 PM ^
Averaged 58 net!
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:27 PM ^
How long was the bomb that died at the 3 in the 2nd half?
September 23rd, 2018 at 1:10 AM ^
Is it too soon to attach the Golden God moniker?
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:39 PM ^
Bill "The Colossus" Hart gives me special feelings in my tum tum
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:41 PM ^
Will Hart!
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:42 PM ^
This is the thread where we can have the Will Hart For Heisman discussion. No offense to the original OP.
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:42 PM ^
DPJ has a return TD and everyone raves (correctly) about the punting.
This...feels good.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:29 PM ^
I would like to see DPJ secure the ball a little better, but that was a great return.
September 22nd, 2018 at 9:41 PM ^
the awareness by the special teams players picking up blocks was superb! This team is playing like A TEAM again!!
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:45 PM ^
Hart looks great, and DPJ is a true weapon at punt return. That was a beautiful display of elite athleticism.
Young man is getting better every game.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:25 PM ^
Yet another bold comment!
September 23rd, 2018 at 7:38 AM ^
An unable to vote plus one to you. I would call it an overly bold comment though.
September 23rd, 2018 at 11:55 AM ^
Yes. Things seem to be clicking for DPJ. To be honest though, it seems some of the criticism thrown his way, lighted a bit of a fire under him. To my eye, he's playing more freely. Now that could just be things "clicked" or he could have just said "fuck it..im going out to ball." (Or even a combo of both). Whatever it is, he looks more comfortable and confident out there.
(Still think his first step is nothing "GREAT," but once he hits top speed, he's off to the races).
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:47 PM ^
Someone asked in a thread recently “why is DPJ out there returning punts?” I think we got the answer today, to the extent we didn’t already know. That spin move towards the end of the return was sweet.
September 22nd, 2018 at 7:26 PM ^
Speaking of recent threads, anyone else concerned that he's not living up to his potential? LMAO
September 22nd, 2018 at 11:55 PM ^
Lol, my son asked me that early in the game. Needless to say after the score there were no more questions from junior.
September 22nd, 2018 at 3:59 PM ^
That People-Jones spin-o-rama move was amazing
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:00 PM ^
Missing an extra point then hitting a 50-yarder is pretty much Quinn Nordin in a nutshell.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:48 PM ^
I texted my brother that he's the Braylon Edwards of place kicking. He suggested if we are kicking a FG under 50 yards we take as many delay of game penalties necessary to get outside of 50 .
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:02 PM ^
Reeeeeally wish Harbaugh woulda let Nordin attempt that 60 yarder before half
September 23rd, 2018 at 12:55 AM ^
ha. i was saying that too. but that was a helluva 4th yard pass. damn alligator arms.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:03 PM ^
Consistently beating opponents on special teams is a great feeling. That first Nordin FG would have been good from over 60.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:13 PM ^
Kick the 60 yard field goal, make Ace get a haircut. Cumong man.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:36 PM ^
I was without sound for the game. What happened that didn’t let Ambry return the muffed punt?
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:43 PM ^
The receiver did not have possession so they could not advance it.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:19 PM ^
If anything, it's kind of amazing (though not entirely surprising) that Brando and co. didn't immediately recognize that you can't advance a muffed punt.
September 22nd, 2018 at 6:13 PM ^
One of the worst rules in the game
September 23rd, 2018 at 7:00 AM ^
Retroactively I wish that rule applied to punters who never possess the ball too. That it can't be advanced.
September 22nd, 2018 at 4:48 PM ^
Absolutely amazed how Hart went from abysmal punter last year to complete Golden God this season. Kudos to the coaching staff
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:10 PM ^
DPJ return was spectacular and Our people punter is as .impressive asthey come. Greatkicking by Nordic too except for the PAT of course.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:14 PM ^
Man, despite the fact Nordin nailed the 50-yard FG, he missed a PAT. Some of his other PATs were just barely inside the posts. Coulda easily been a couple more PATs missed. What gives with him?
September 22nd, 2018 at 8:42 PM ^
He's the Shane Morris of kickers. Everything is at maximum velocity with him. I assume that poses a problem on an XP and makes him "snatch" at the ball if the timing isn't perfect.
September 22nd, 2018 at 11:22 PM ^
He tries to kick the ball out of the stadium every time.
September 23rd, 2018 at 12:27 AM ^
Hayden Epstein was like that. Make the 55-yarder, miss the PAT.
September 23rd, 2018 at 12:58 AM ^
i heard a stat before the season that the entire BIG missed 6 xtra points all last season. nordin had 3 of them.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
Special in a good way unlike under Hoke
September 22nd, 2018 at 9:36 PM ^
I had ALMOST buried the memories of 10-man punt teams. What a shit show that was, 2-3 times a season.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go cry in a corner...
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:23 PM ^
I've been saying it for awhile, Nordin needs to put some touch on those PATs and short FGs...every ball comes off his foot like a rocket (a few knuckle balls on those close attempts).
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:26 PM ^
Whoose leg is more sore tomorrow, Moody or Nebraska's punter?
September 22nd, 2018 at 6:15 PM ^
Frost. Kicking himself all night for taking the Nebraska job.
September 22nd, 2018 at 7:02 PM ^
Bravo, sir.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:29 PM ^
DPJ is our best punt returner since Breaston.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:42 PM ^
DPJ is too sporadic for me to put above Peppers. DPJ can occasionally break off a long one and will finish it, but he also has like one horrible punt return decision per game. Jabrill caught every punt and always made the right decision
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:33 PM ^
DPJ's return was awesome.
September 22nd, 2018 at 5:34 PM ^
S&C Coach obviously had Hart doing squats all offseason, leg strength is UP UP UP
...or maybe he just got contacts like Gary did and stopped shanking the fuck out of balls
September 22nd, 2018 at 8:59 PM ^
Maybe we should just go for 2 after every TD from now on.
September 22nd, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
And we thought our punting game was suspect at the start of the season! Here’s to having the weapon and hopefully not needing it!
September 22nd, 2018 at 10:21 PM ^
I’m just here for tho pos bang
