So, in this week’s Observations post, I made a crack about Brett Thorson considering the transfer portal due to lack of opportunity because the offense was so efficient. Little did I know I would be upstaged.
I hate it when football players are better at snarkery than I am. Well played, sir… er, mate.
Stet is a well-known anti-antipodean and a triskaidekaphobic.

I knew the definition of antipodean. I had to look up the other word. You should start a “Word of the Day” blog.

Wouldn’t SBIV be a triskadekaphile since he wears 13?

Last year, the punting game was phenomenal and a large but overlooked reason for the Dawgs success on defense and also on offense (takes a lot of pressure off when you know you have a punter that can flip the field).
Unless Thorson’s game against O was an anomaly, my fears that the punting game would fall off some are gone.

Is it just the light or does Brett “Mad Max” Thorson look a bit ripped?

Those Aussie punters are all pretty beefy because they play Aussie rule football. Not that I want to see an opponent break a long return, but I would love to see Brett make a tackle or two. I imagine he could lay the wood, and I mean DURING the game.

Hated that we were asleep at the wheel and had to call a time out, but Brett sure made the best of his chance to shine.

I see fake punts in our future with Brett on a keeper sweep. He’ll just need to remember to keep his helmet on. Notice that SBIV is our PK holder too. Heheheheheh…..

I did notice about SBIV as the holder. That likely holds back some rushing of kicks especially in short yardage.

He can just stand up and toss it to Washington…who could cover? We could even just break out of kicking formation before the snap and spread O and Bowers wide. Probably forces other team to call TO, then we go and kick it anyway. I’m sure we have something special saved for Jax and Atlanta.
