That ruins the point of choice though. The original logic seems to be that there is a trade-off between kick-off and FG kicking abilities, with a S* able to do both better. They should have just max one kicker roster spot to make the choice more meaningful.

bingo

If we go to one kicker then kicking definitely needs to be more consistent. But I think I like the idea.

does anyone have a 100 accuracy punter? If not, I'm going to create one

Why?

Here's my 85 Accuracy P: http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/player/99277

He has 3 Inside the 5 punts in his career.

Quite frankly, you give up too many yards on punts with a High Acc/ Low Power Punter. My Punter is averaging up to 10 yards less per punt lower than other top Ladder teams. Multiply that by 124 punts and you have as much as 1240 yards of Net Yard Differentials between LZ and other top Teams.

LZ Boys are 6th in Net Yard Differential in Vet even with 8 losses. We're 800+ (35 per game) away from being 3rd. One of the reasons (of many) we're 12th in Net Points (while 6th in Net Yards) is that we give up almost 40 yards per game with Punting. That's equivalent to a Turnover per game.

You can easily build a 100 Acc Punter. What you'll accomplish however is another question. IMHO

Maybe S* with power and accuracy?

My feeling is that the high power lessens the likelihood of the coffin corner punts. That's why we don't see it too frequently past rookie.

I'd be interested to see what a 40 power/100 accuracy punter would do with a ton of consistency.

Had a 50 power/100 accuracy punter, he was crap

Don't forget punt hands. That impacts the quality of the punt.

Check out my punter. In 3 seasons (rookie - seasoned, so he still has a bunch of SP left) he has 3 coffin corners, 7 inside the 5 and 17 inside the 10.

this one has 4 coffin corner and 10 inside 5

Hey thx dredgar. Yeah if any of you are interested in my build that dredgar posted directly above, here's the simple back story. I built him as power right away pumping pow to 62 before anything else and finished soph with 76. He won 2nd in avg distance rook/soph and will again this seasoned too. I will boost accuracy twice once I get cap boosters. He was on a weak team so I took 3 and Out , but that has lead to too many TBs in soph, so I wish I did Pinned Deep instead. I see him doing Entrap next to gold and then Cov Commander depending on what his new team will need (old team resetting).

Oh yeah!!
well, 5 Coffins, 11 inside the 5. In about 25% less punts. Eat it dred, eat it! Just ignore the 40 ypp average

That's the most consistent coffin production I've seen yet. Care to share his build specifics? It looks like low power may help in this case.

Build open, just hit 80 accuracy. Trying to remember if I was going to use cap boosters or not. Might stick at 80 for Jman just to see results. Definitely focused on Corners and pinning people

There should be some sort of SA for that. With only 25 intimidation, Inspire Fear will only trigger 10% of the time. I do love this experiment though, and if I ever play Sperm Whales again...I now won't be irrationally upset if I find myself pinned.
