I've never liked a punter as a holder but at least he's done it and done it with some accomplished kickers (Vanderjagt, Vinatieri) so hopefully Suisham's percentage will improve.

Agreed, I think "Hunter the Punter" will greatly improve our field position, which should lead to more opportunites for points.
