    How can people watch a clip like the one above and say pacman isn't just as good as Devin Hester?

    I for one didn't. I just said he's better than him. He seems to have a few more moves.;)

    Pac's more agile for sure. Or, maybe he just has to use more moves because the blocking isn't near as good? Hester usually makes one cut then it's a straight shot to the endzone.

    Pac is a Beast, plain and simple. It is a wonder to me how some might say we are better off without him on the team. Teams have no worry about us in the return game anymore. The fact that teams would have to try to kick to the sideline or squib kick it, can lead to a change in field position by at least 10-20 yrds. That's called the "PAC Factor"

    It has been frustrating. But I blame most of this on the other teams punters. They've been really god against us this year. I can never remember this many 50 yard punts against us in the past. And then to make it worse, we add few boneheaded penalties like in the Colts game. It has been very frustrating to say the least, and when we get down there, we may get lucky and have pass play called to make it out. Otherwise we hit the ground for punting room, and that's just giving up most of the time. But honestly, most of these punts have been huge punts by the punters.

    PSJ.....

    speaking of these booming punts.....when teams have a dangerous return man, they are hestitant about out punting the coverage and allowing the return man room to operate...

    when a team has a bunch of bumbling idiots back to catch the punt, they are not afraid to let 'er rip.....

    i predict that the difference between a win and loss on sunday will be how well we can avoid and/or manage drives that start inside our own 10....
