Punters are cool again?

Not quite Riley Dixon from last year, but this new Blitz Punter is actually useful. I gave up 1 theme team chem in order to put him on the squad.

He's taking over kickoff duties, that 89 SPD means he's actually downfield in special teams coverage. MUT doesn't track tackles for kickers and punters, but he's got at least one coverage tackle. At the very least, he's fast enough to get there quick to absorb blocks, so another player can get free, it's fantastic.

Never even considered any of that. Appreciate it.

He just got another (second?) kickoff coverage tackle in H2H Wild Card game. Well, an assisted tackle, but still... sounds silly but being able to play 11 on 11 football during Special Teams play is mildly useful, IMO.

It sounded ridiculous, at least initially, but you can just allow him to auto-run, if return man goes towards the center of the field, Zentner will be there to make a diving tackle, or cut stick after you switch to him, or user control and steer him into a blocker to free up a Linebacker or whatever. Good luck!

Thanks for the heads up, just bought him for 60k to replace Riley Dixon.  I’m moving on from my MF TT at this point.  I’m only keeping NTL and Pola-Moa going forward.

Broke my heart to move on from Pola-Mao, he's been MVP candidate going all the way back to my MUT `23 squad. Dude is a fierce ball hawk. I actually just went back to Eric Berry max, he all juiced up with 92 SPD & ACC.

Plus that free Jordan Howden Blitz SS can be 90 SPD (for 1000 Training, I didn't pay it, cuz Berry is free). However, 6'4" and aggressive ball hawk is difficult to replace, incredible user with high COD, buttery smooth out there running around. Give em hell, my dude.

Interesting take. Thanks for sharing.

Nice i might go that route.
