Brooks/Frost Update 8-9-08

backrow · 08-10-2008, 12:16 AM

Frost - 4 punts, 34 yd. avg.

Good placement from what I did see, however.

A 45 yd punt return probably did not help. STs need some work!

Bills have good specials, for what it's worth.

Frosty didn't impress, but it's early yet.

Suisham hit his FG with Frost holding.....

Thats the thing, look beyond the average, Frost didn't do that bad. BUT, I still say, you use a draft pick on a Punter, that is your punter.

Exactly, that is why I think Brooks is going to get the job in the end.
Frost didn't do bad, but he didn't really impress either. I think he is going to have to show the coaches something if he wants to be this team's punter.

From what I had heard, they were really hoping Frost could improve his hangtime. Seems like he did okay with that last night.

wow, a thread about punters. thank god football is back. i would be shocked if Brooks isn't the punter on opening day

HateNMyEyez · 08-10-2008, 11:47 AM

i dont care who punts as long as they dont be muffin them

WaldSkins · 08-10-2008, 08:09 PM

Frosts punt was for 40 yards and was returned for 45 yards. Where was this hangtime because i didnt see any on that play. Hello Brooks

Yes, the Bills' broadcasters said Frost didn't give his 'Teams' guys enough time to get down the field because there was no hangtime on his punt.

8/16 - Brooks 6 punts for 43 yds.

RobH4413 · 08-18-2008, 12:54 AM

One thing I def. have noticed is Brooks' hang time.

He's consistently floating them up there, and that's something we've been missing for quite some time. Good punters are huge in those close games...

That Guy · 08-18-2008, 02:09 AM

i don't even notice brooks... which is great... no praying for another lucky roll, etc.

Me too! If he isn't someone will get him!

I'll be shocked if Brooks doesn't win the punting job. He is consistently booming them high and deep. We know a shank is right around the corner for Frost.
