They figured if the competition was close, the job would go to Robbins by default. They said that he would look decent and then have a couple of bad consecutive punts.
It sounds like Rehkow has the opposite problem of the past few punters. The end of Huber, Chrisman, and Robbins were all said to do great in practice and then struggle in the game. Rehkow seems to be iffy in practice, but he's locked in during the game. A quality punter would be so nice to have.
Count me in as one of those people. I didnt think he looked all that better than Robbins in the preseason games. The game Sunday you could see a clear difference. Robbins could never have a game like that. Rehkow wont have games like that every week but its nice to know we have a punter that at least has the ability to flip the field.
