In last week’s episode of the Steelers Stat Geek podcast, I was asked if there were more statistics when it came to punting than those typically reported. With the usual stats being yards, net yards, and punts inside the 20-yard line, I was tasked with looking for additional measurables and if it painted a different picture when it comes to the Steelers punting situation.
When looking at statistics that aren’t commonly tracked by the NFL itself, it’s very important to know to the source. In trying to find some of the numbers I wanted to expand on in terms of punting, the best statistical data I found came from Pro Football Focus (PFF).
