A pleasant surprise
I know we've mentioned this before, but I have been very impressed with Derrick Frost so far this year. No bad shanks, and he is really helping us on the field position battle. Here are the stats for top-5 punters in NFL (let's hope this copy-and-paste looks normal):

Re: A pleasant surprise
He has definitely performed very well, but I always feel starnge when I'm saying how good the punter is.

Re: A pleasant surprise
consistancy is his problem, so i've got to see him do it a couple more games in a row.
he did very well versus the texans though. |

Re: A pleasant surprise
Good stat.
But less 3 an out would be a better stat! |

Re: A pleasant surprise
He's actually kicking the bottom of the ball instead of it's side?

Re: A pleasant surprise
I think both kickers are doing a great job so far. I think it was a good move to let Hall take over the kick-offs. The oppositions starting field position was too good in those first two games.
