Is this guy capable of kicking it more than 40 yards these days? It seems like every time we punt the opponent is starting their drive at the 30-40 yard line.
The punting has been awful this season. I think its time for an upgrade next year.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy

He's old and a free agent after this season. I wouldn't be surprised if we go elsewhere this off season.

I thought Chrisman had an outside chance at making the team going into the season. I could definitely see them moving on from Huber next year. He hasn’t been particularly bad, but he’s at the point we could probably stand to upgrade the position.

This is one of those "that was a tough loss and I'm tired of bitching about Zac so I'm putting Huber's head in the guillotine to make me feel better" threads.

True, Kevin doesn't boom it as much as he used to. He is still solid though.
Maybe the next punter the Bengals get could be like Pat McInally, one of the most colorful players of all time. He also played wide receiver, which these days it's very rare for a punter to do anything besides punt. Anyway, Pat McInally once got his head almost taken off on a pass play in a game against the Browns. He not only came back, but he also scored a TD later in the game.

This thread stinks of those "We need a new PR. Erickson isn't getting it done. Yeah, he's middle of the pack in average, but he doesn't bust big TD returns. We need someone more explosive back there....like Darius Phillips...." takes from last off-season.

I understand Monday morning reactionary posts about players and coaches and have no problem with them taking place. Forums where fans chat about a team would be rather boring without the emotional posts. Buuuuuuut, to randomly call out the punter is a strange take. Phillips, Zac, and others associated with the team are more deserving of a Monday hot take post.
