    Yeah no. The difference between a kick getting blocked or not is hundredths of a second. Not to mention the importance of accuracy. We trot out some Joe Schmo yall will be whining for years. You can look for a 20 minute answer by belichek on the importance of a long snapper on YouTube

    I haven't heard anything about Kuntz's status yet. Working out long snappers doesn't necessarily mean kuntz is out long term. The final preseason game is only a few days away so they may just be holding him out as a precaution. Kuntz might very well be fine and available for the Jets game.

    If that's the case, we have wasted our planet's natural resources on this thread, causing global warning. For the sake of slowing climate change, and in order to save our democracy, we shouldn't be panicking over Kuntz yet.

    The upside is not having to listen to calls for Kuntz to be cut because he makes a million a year doing something the backup center could do. Always want to save money by cutting the specialist who makes slightly above minimum. Never understand that logic.

    There is no logic being used. Just a monkey with a typewriter banging away

    Yep, I look like an idiot now. It ain't the first time, and considering my drinking habits, it won't be the last time.

    Sounds like Kuntz will be out for 6 to 12 weeks for healing time.
