Blocked Punt

"Not to mention there was another one where Franz (I think) almost had the block but was smart enough to keep his body out of the way of the kicker to avoid the penalty."

That's what Bill Maas said too, but I respectfully differ - thought Franz pussied out on blocking that punt. It was well within reach, and he tried to meekly put out one of his forearms to block the punt instead of throwing his body right in front - IMHO he could've done the latter without making contact with the punter.
