Avg of 51 and long of 62 with two inside the 20. Early in the course of the game when offense was struggling somewhat (and with penalties) I thought he had some great punts from deep in our territory. Can’t help but think if Huber were out there Titans would maybe have a few more points on the board.
Absolutely. Two NFL starts and two threads started praising your performance. Let's not forget some of those punts were in to the wind and he absolutely crushed them. Must have had good spirals as they cut through the wind really well.
In all, Drue had 5 punts and averaged 51.8 with one going for 62. I think his net (what really matters) was around 45, which is flat out getting it done.
I haven't been measuring it, but it seems to me that he gets the ball out a little faster than Huber. Coverage gets a bit less time to get there, but reduces the risk of a punt block.
