Originally posted by LaheyThe idea that ALL punters / kickers are relatively unathletic weaklings is kind of over blown in the minds of many fans. Bills punter Brian Moorman is an excellent athlete who did really well (finished first or second) in some NFL athletics contest 2-3 off-seasons back, and Steelers punter Daniel Sepulveda was recruited as a LB out of high school and had a 40 time around 4.6 - which is quite good for a player his size (6'3 230lbs). Then there are those Aussie imports, who are mostly former Aussie rules / rugby players - I can guarantee those guys are as tough as nails, fit, and athletic. Therefore, I'm not completely surprised a kicker / punter beat a DB in a foot race - some of them are very good athletes.
I do wonder how much of that rep has to do with how out of shape these "in shape" guys get. You dont do anywhere on the same planet of work as the regular starters. They fall out of shape but learn neat tricks like ball spinning and bounce kicking.Best reason to have a license.

Yeah I don't know where that small weak non-athletic white guy stereotype about kicks ever came from.
These guys are average men that can kick a football wherever they want it to. That's all.Comment

well I dont look at a group to say who's stronger... Now if Romans soldiers were still living (like on "300") they'd be the beast of the planet.Comment

Who raced DBs right out of their knickers.
Coach Garrett best said it:
"The Wildcat? Forget it!
Buehler will toss to himself on flea flickers!"

SC alumni FTMFW! (Even though I'm just a fan and not even of college age, yet. lol.) This is classic. Homeboy looks built. If you didn't tell anyone he was a kicker, no one would know...Comment
