Okay, what am I missing here? I went to the 2023 stats for punting (below), and a 45.9 average would put him 27th in the league. Admittedly, Brad Robbins was 30th with a 44.3 average, but McNamara would still be near the bottom of the league if he hit his average. The Bengals can't find someone league average? The Iowa punter had a 48.2 average last year, which would put him 12th.

We would need to watch the circumstances of said Punts...
Like when Chrisman Punted in the AFC Championship vs the Chiefs and damn near lost the game for us because he used no
hang time at all and put it right in the Returner's hands before our Gunners could even set up. You just cannot do this.
