He's a bum..He didn't score a TD on every punt yesterday..We should have won by 50! I demand a refund for all the stuff that I don't buy!

You do realize that according to pretty much every analytic he is the worst punter in the league at the moment, correct? Even his own coaches were blasting him on the sidelines last week during the game. The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy

Best PR since PAC-Man. He’s a threat now every time he touches it. Whoever was returning week 1 does not look the the Charlie Jones in week 2 and 3.

Can't say it's an aspect I pay much attention to, hence the question. :) I haven't found myself constantly thinking "wow that was an awful punt"....one seemed questionable last night. If I go look at the stats, his distance seems balanced by the fact of a higher amount of fair catches and low return yards. I'm not emotionally tied to it one way or the other.

Look at how much space Charlie Jones had when he received the ball. He was able to run one back for 19 yards and might have broken a couple others given that when he received the ball no defender was near him. I doubt the coaches were upset with Robbins last night, save perhaps the one punt that went off the side of his foot.

Chuck Sizzle is looking good so far. I want to see him get some snaps on offense too as he could be a terror on slants and working the flats.

Really pulling for him and the other WR we drafted. They made Irwin inactive yesterday and I’m not sure if they will continue to do that. Could be because they needed the 3rd QB, but it could also mean Jones is starting to overtake him in practice. Jones provides more value right now due to his special teams anyway.

I think it’s nerves because he’s way better than what he’s showing us

Agree, Kinda tough cause I liked Irwin and Trent. I just think Charlie is going to be something special. Would like to see him getting more reps on offense. We can move him around like we did with Chase (should be every game) really pulling for Andrei Iosivas too.

Jones showed up on the injury report with a thumb issue. Hopefully nothing too serious to keep him out of the return game next Sunday. Would also like to see more of him in the passing game to see if he can possibly replace Boyd in the slot next season. I could see then giving Boyd an extension moving him outside and letting Tee walk
