I don't claim to be an expert in the punter market.  I'm just pointing out the obvious....that our guy wasn't the worst. You add a yard to his numbers and he is average.   My point remains consistent... we don't know what is and what was out there.  Obviously there are 3 to 6 other teams worse off.  

Maybe the market shifts in a year or two and we see a bunch of rookie punters.... if so, that's kinda telling. 

If anybody felt they are worse off they would have poached our P that is right there to be taken. Not one!

Your reply about the Cowboys. I wouldn’t understand this reply.

Very telling of the market on punters.  Should be a lot of college kids coming into the league in the next few years.

Was arguably the strongest influx at the position from college in the history of the sport

Right...just like nobody else is snatching up the other guys. 

Every team already feels they have better….or they’d switch to the available better player

Hurts is the LEADER! Captain is a whole other thing.

I’m not our ST coach…or HC. But the most obvious answer with Siposs is to just punt it out of bounds. Gross and Net will be the same. No major damage can result. Dont have to fret about the bad ST coach struggling to have a decent coverage plan either. Win/win

Is a leader but if I had to guess which players have the biggest voices in the locker room 

Kelce, lane, cox, Graham 

Siposs was worst P last six games of his first season. 29th or worse P last year.

Had 4 drafts,picked 8,8,9,10. In one I got JJ with pick 9 (ok thanks!!!) on the turn I got Josh Jacobs on the same team,also got Fields at QB and Andrews at TE(lol). Bills and jets D.I usually get my BU RB before WR 2 drafting that late,then I will pick up another stout D in round 9 or 10. Then when the byes go by I can trade a D for a top player(usually a WR since I am weak there after taking RB 3) I need. I love DJ Moore and although I didn;t get him Fields will use him extensively and if he does,you get the double whammy,nice pairing there

I missed the TE run in my league soon at Mark Andrew’s got selected TE got taken like crazy..

When the game began remember how there were only like two TE worth taking?

That’s not considering that he choked in the big moment. A clear deal breaker.

TE pool still isn’t massive such a huge gap between guys like Kelce and Andrew’s(Kittle when he was healthy) and the rest.

definitely a far cry when it was basically just Gates and Tony…. Maybe Witten if it was a PPR lol 😂 

The three behind Siposs: one has no job now. The other retired. Only one remaining with the Niners at least has special skills his punts can do. Knuckleball punt that was muffed last PS game for example. He also has come in as relief field goal K.

More than once did I start Celek

Celek when he got used had some damn good games just wasn’t the consistent threat of the top guys which really is what makes TEs so hard to draft 

PFT has the Cowboys ranked on top followed by the Niners….with the Eagles fifth….in the NFC.

Sean Payton went official on his mistrust towards the league office. Backing it up with the officiating his last four seasons with the Saints being 30th, 31st, 32nd and 32nd in reference to penalties being called against them versus their opponents penalties.

All the Chiefs did to beat us was throw to JuJu and Kelce while countering with the run. JuJu left. Kelce is hurt. Chiefs look vulnerable!

Upset alert: first game of the 2023 season.

Seems like it was decided the team needed to go with nine captains mostly revolving around the WR duo. Naming AJ a captain and not DeVonta would lead to all sorts of upcoming divisions. Already have witnessed media trying to drive a wedge between the two. Had to go with nine to make DeVonta a captain also.

Yes....because you can't " poach" without putting them on the 53.   Just like we have had the tryouts and still nobody on the 53.    Very smart the way of using the PS this way.  Protect the other guys.

Well... look at the results.   Our guy really sucks ....really sucks right... why is half the league about a yard difference?  

Obviously whatever potential is there, hasn't been fulfilled.  Probably why there was a huge influx from college to begin with???

Yes... 1 yard better.

Actually his returns aren't bad at all if you compare him to around the league...barring the one where 6 unblocked guys couldn't tackle Toney.

Btw... at no time did I ever say he was any good.  My point is simply comparing him to the rest of the league when looking at the stats.  He doesn't shank or get blocked ..and doesn't give up big returns.   If you were such a good prognosticator that you could predict what happened in the SB and know for certain it couldn't happen to any other punter...then God bless.    My point has always been... 1 or 2 yards to me isn't going to decide a game.... dude punted 45 times ... adding a yard isn't going to mean much to worry about. 

Congrats the fluke play happened for you... just like Congrats to all the Hurts haters with the fluke fumble.  You all get a gold star.
