While the position of punter has never been the most noteworthy in the NFL, there are few things more frustrating for a football fan than watching a bad punt. You’ve just seen your offense get shut down, possibly even a three-and-out. Maybe it was fourth and short, and instead of going for it and perhaps keeping the drive alive, your team punted it a whopping 34 yards all the way to the opponent’s 44-yard line. Ugh.
This is likely a familiar feeling for Pittsburgh Steelers fans who watched a lot of the team last year. The numbers show that the 2022 Steelers did not have a great punting unit.
