The first one was blocked by #15, if that's Jermaine Kearse. He came from the outside. Watch hime slide across the right of your screen as he come off the block to get the punt.

The second came from the left wing. The entire left side collapsed on the punter.

(Still looking)

Speaking on an overall scale, if ya'll go all-in on punt blocks either a) people will become numb to it and let it go or b) epic sized implosion of anger.

Just don't do it.

Are you guys trying to compare real football to MFN to justify punt blocks???

This used to be top 3 in MFN leagues. I’m staring to think not. For god sake such craziness to try and play fair.


The simple answer to all of this is - ban anyone under 237 lbs from being on the front four of ANY formation.

Not for me! I'll just leave. So by all means; ALLOW IT TO CONTINUE! I'll disappear & your heads will cease to hurt from all of my asinine comments!

I already stated my stance...? There's no counter to the punt blocking, there are no adjustments that can be made in-game, so I think it should be taken out so it's not exploited. This is a rules debate thread, my first discussion was over the wording of the rules and whether it should be based on intention or just usage in general. My second was just clarifying that west was correct in that there are WR/CB's that line up on the line to block punts, not just coming from the wing.

Per NFL Game Pass... He may not be lined up on the line, but he definitely wasn't "outside".

They Don't! they don't! THEY DON'T!
Not a single one of those players were lined up as DL rushers (front four). NOT ONE!!!

I GIVE UP! You guys do what ya want. I don't even care anymore. I'll go with whatever happens.

DB's & WR's on the front four, WR's as DB's, WR's as RB's. DB's as DL. I'm gonna run with whatever you all decide should be allowed.

You can’t compare NFL/NCAA/HS to MFN.

You CANT. I have zero in game control in MFN. Stop showing real football. The punt team has several options depending what the defense shows. You CANNOT compare apples to oranges. Just stop already. I can’t believe I have to say that.
