Okay, now I'm confused.  When is a punt not high?  Or do you mean you let it go if it's off a bounce?

 

Not being a smart ass, I'm not smart enough for that.


A punt falling straight down from on high is way less likely to take an endzone bounce than a lower angled punt, I think is the idea

Bad spot for a three and out.

 

I think I get it.  That kick was perpendicular to the ground, others come in at an angle.

It’s more about the distance the punt is traveling. A high hang time short punt is going to drop and coverage is going to be there. 
 

A longer punt that lands inside the 10 likely has more angle and the coverage probably isn’t down there. It’s tough to explain because of the 8 million variations of punts and spin and placements.

That actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks man, learn something new every day.  Appreciate it.
