I forgot about that... vs. the Jets and Bucs during the Herm 2-14 season.

We have a leader in the clubhouse......

Yea I'm pretty sure Newsome is here to make sure Townsend actually wins the job but I'd think they want Townsend to win the job.

Yep. Newsome is a backup plan just in case.

His punts do, anyways.

Not sure about the whole Professor Snape vibe.

Harrison Butker = Buttkicker

Tommy Townsend = T and T or TnT, if you will


Buttkicker & TnT . . . . . a match made in special teams heaven.

He can look like the disfigured dude from 300 if he can boom ****ing punts.

Apparently Townsends brother Johnny, was drafted by the Raiders in 2018....he got cut and their fans think he was ****ing awful.

Interesting backstory there.

I honestly don't care who wins out, considering they won't punt but about 25 times a year.

Looks like the last 2 years he punted 45 and 48 times. Lowest attempts of his career. no surprise.

Yeah, I was being hyperbolic - but the point stands.

All the respect in the world for Colquitt, but no need to pay a punter that much with this offense - one of these kids will be fine.
