If you follow Buffalo Rumblings’ beloved Bruce Nolan for more than five minutes, you’ll likely latch onto the fact that he has a vendetta against wins being used as a quarterback stat. I happen to agree. Wins are solely a team stat. What does this have to do with Buffalo Bills punter Sam Martin? I mean, no one has ever said “Wins are a punter stat.”
Just like wins aren’t QB stats, most punt metrics aren’t punter stats. Take a stat like punts inside the opponent's 20. That’s largely dependent on the gunners, field position, coaching decisions more.
