Is there advanced punter stats such as grass vs turf and stuff?

Michael Dickson vs Field?

He's ridiculous.

Honestly, I'll watch the Seahawks just to see him punt.

Majority of my NFL  watching last year was exclusively tied to Dickson/punting situations.  Crazy that a guy is that outstanding at what most consider a trivial position and part of the game.  The balance of my NFL interests were filled by Tucker stats.  Hook'em gents.

I think it was Chad Hastings who said that by the time they are both done, Texas may have both the greatest place kicker and punter in NFL history.

SPECIALIST U

Texas should make it a priority to send cousin to visit with him and study with him

I know Al Michaels has seen a lot, but for fuck’s sake, show a little enthusiasm for such a badass demonstration of skill.

it was just a 55 yard punt downed at the 1.  I don’t see what the big deal is. 

so I’m behind on the cowboys game, currently in the 2nd quarter.  no video but Dickson just punted from his own 35, ball went high, lots of hang time, 63 yards in the air (from LOS) and bounces on the 2 yard line, sideways, and basically dies, but then slowly rolls about six inches over the goal line for a touchback just before it can be downed. 
 

this man is the best punter to ever live. 

67 yard tank a min ago 

Another high one that died at the 4

He’s gonna need to have an away named after him. Ray guy ain’t got shit on him.

As opposed to naming a home after him?

he's been fire this year. His rookie year was great. last year was a step back. He's damn near perfect so far. fucking legend.

 

sucks the defense is so bad his dimes on the 2 yard line still end up getting driven 80 yards haha. I'll still take it!

got the game on in the background and happened to walk by the tv for a seattle punt just a second ago.  57-yard moonshot, crazy hang time.  business as usual.  no big deal.

He should be a pro bowler this year.

so he will finish with at least 32 inside the 20, which is 2 per game!  I remember when he nearly won the Alamo Bowl, with around 6 punts inside the 10!

Alamo Bowl... Texas Bowl..... who can keep track. It was a Herman quality bowl.

The other time I specifically remember his unique contribution was an interview Mike Gundy gave ABC after OSU came to Austin and beat us.  Without a question, he blurted out, "Their punter nearly won the game for them".  

I've seen all of the great Texas punters going all of the way back to Russell Exrleben, John Teltschik, etc. but there is only one punter I have seen who has effectively controlled the game against a superior opponent, and that is Dickson. 

It's hard to believe a punter could have such an incredible impact.

Ok. Playoff punting...keeping track, first punt net 57 yards!  I am including holding penalty against return team.

2nd punt net 53......hidden yardage far outdistancing Seattle’s official negative yardage.  

After 2 sets of punt exchanges, Dickson is plus 31 in yards, and the Rams punter is no slouch. 

Amazing Dicko... punt checks up, downed at the freakin' 5yd line

Don't sell the Rams' punter short, he's a tremendous slouch.

Net 59, on the 7yd line

 

DAMN DICKO....  IT'S THE FUCKIN' CATALINA WINE MIXER !!!

 

 

Edited by LTtxfan

Closing out first half in hidden yardage, Dickson punted 4 times compared to Rams punters 3 times.  Ram punters net avg. is 41, so I will pencil him in for 41 to bookend Dicksons last net of 59...difference of 18...add 18 to 35 mentioned earlier, and we have hidden yardage for Mike of + 53 yards.  Never thought of it much before, but I wonder what the record is for hidden yardage in a playoff game? Would be fun to look up some of Guys hidden yardage amounts.  Raiders were in plenty of playoff games.
