I just watched an 8 minute video about punting. And i have no regrets
Woman doesn't know how to pronounce Koch.
They just took common types of kicks from Aussie Rules Football and applied them to NFL. aussie rules has been around since 1848, not a new idea :P
sugaquaks Did you refer to yourself in the third person and call yourself "J"?
Ærik Bjørnsson where is the correlation of aussie football and this video about sam koch?
it's where NFL players got the ideas for different style kicks
So grateful that the Ravens have Sam, and Tucker
Alex N so grateful i picked him up on my waiver wire last week ha
Alex N Best pair of kickers in the NFL
And no playoffs. 😆
Raiders had Lechler and Janikowski - weren't too successful just like the ravens now ;)
@@fatamericanmlssupporter586 Ever or currently?
“He won’t make the hall of fame but.. he is changing the way punters punt..” so he should into the hall of fame then.. right?
D1agram Yeah makes no sense, especially because he uses the same exact stance
He will probably make the hall of fame
Yeah shut your mouth dummy
totally agree mate
All of the top 20 yards per punt punters started their careers in 2000 or later.
Methinks they’re getting better. Me-also-thinks that field turf helps.
John Harbaugh loves his special teams.
Our only bright spot last year. Kick blocking has become unreal and Tucker... dude is a beast. Kind of sad he's been our most lethal weapon on offense though haha.
Of course he does! He had been coaching special teams for 20 years (1988-2008) before he became the head coach of the Ravens!
Dustin Platt i
O
Wow
The best punter I've seen with my own eyes and the best punter in Ravens history. He's changed punting in a way I haven't seen before or even since. I'm sad that he's retired but happy for him. Hope retirement treats him well!
So You want to argue he changed the game but hes not going to the hall of fame lol punters should be in the hall if they change the game they are important to the team as well. he has a ring lol
He'll be there....maybe not first ballot but he will make it in the HOF.
Everyone just wants to look at stats. So much more matters if you actually pay attention to the game(s)
Revolutionizing a position has landed some in the Hall it wouldn’t surprise me if it did for Sam
@@dylanf3108 There's a few other punters that should go in before him though. Despite him revolutionizing the punter game, there have been a few other punters that have been truly better like Lechler, Lee, or Roby who were all devastating. In fact, Roby helped to revolutionize how punters played by being the first or one of the first to use the two-step motion, helping to stop punters from being blocked as often.
She was talking about how him taking a safety in Super 47 wouldn't get him in the Hall of Fame
isnt 'changing the way others do their job' the definition of someone worthy of the hall of fame???
I legit watched the whole video, the fuck am I doing
Bro me too
Me to at first I was like tf is this shit and then outta no where it was the end of the video
I almost clicked off of it when I saw it was hosted by Katie Nolan (she annoys the hell outta me with her nonsensical BS), but am glad I let it play. Very interesting bit!
Jack$onEvans7763 it's super interesting tho
Woman doesn't know how to pronounce koch.
U don’t have to worry bout kicking a perfect spiral to Antonio brown anymore
Lol legend
Just play in the cfl lol
Ashton Caniglia damn i was gonna comment this
ShoviCal rip
Lol ikr
Players have been punting in football for over 100 yrs, but only in the past 5 yrs they have revolutionized the craft. It's amazing how they all have finally just clicked on this. A good punter is actually one of the most valuable players on a team.
Germans
Aliens
What it is , is the influence of AFL , Australian Rules football, players crossing over to NFL . The Aussi drop punt has increased the accuracy of the kick and kicking so as to spin the ball making it curve in the air is second nature to AFL players. Hes obviously experimenting with it and now hes all of a sudden changed how kickers are doin it. In the past if an Aussie kicker tried half of those things the American coaches would have kicked them off the team never to be seen again.
Flacco: *WHY IS THE CLOCK STOPPED???*
The lights and scoreboard: imma head out
Koch is too underrated
No he wasn't watch the whole video lol why saying stuff for the heck of it....
Nick at Nite he is, when I think of good punters, I think Sam Martin, Andy Lee, Shane Lechler, King on the Raiders. I knew who Koch was but never thought of him as a good punter, until now
don't forget Hekkers
not Sauer Thomas Morstead
It's cause he's a punter
Here after hearing he is retiring. Hell of a career! Hope he gets into the HOF.
He deserves it but it probably won’t happen sadly
punters amaze me
Punters are people too and they are obviously large assets to the team
Irk Scherda they make the Foot in Football
Joe Jones Yeah they can be more creative than kickers, like they more or less only have 3 or 4 options and punters have tons
Jay Samples my high school done a fake punt where the punter purposely punts it back words to the QB
#punterslivesmatter
Wow now this guy should be in the hall of fame
If he's not, burn the building down. Given the modern game, I'd think he's HOF down the road.
He hasn't retired yet.
@@Marylandbrony he is now though 😔
@@Captainbadger123 Now he will be in the hall of fame in 2027. Hopefully the Ravens will be playing in the hall of fame game that year.
Very cool video on the new art of punting. Respect.
I think he has crossed paths with some former aussie rules players. The boomerang especially is one used regularly in the afl. Also the ability to keep his hips straight whilst changing the swing plane of the kick is natural to our game. Its awesome to see some of our sport infused with this great sport.
Wow this is amazing
Koch dropped 3 punts inside the 5 yard line last week against the Browns...the man is a legend.
Really liked the video. now I can imagine how hard it is to be a good punter.
I'm an incoming freshman and im a punter. I have watched this video probably a lot of time by now😂. Sam amazes me with his punts especially the knuckleball. Ive been practicing how to perfect punting overall and this inspires me.
Your a junior now ?
Where you at now bro? Hope your still out there punting
@@ethanjohnson9286 Working now. had a shot to play juco as a linebacker but didnt have the money for it. Still staying active getting ready to take a shot. Wanted to punt for a college but didnt get any offers.
So the best two punters are facing off this weekend. Sam Koch and Tress Way, best punters in each conference
I have been drifting slightly away from football for a few years straight. This video is pure sport. It is about competition and honesty. It is something I have been missing in the sport recently. Thank you for making this video (4 years ago). Going to watch more
“You did a great job on that safety”
Never thought I’d hear that
Never really thought how effective you can be as a punter. This was actually a really dope video to watch
Johnny Manziel should be a punter... Because he gives the ball to the other team
Got Mut? or he can spend his dumbass coked up in a club.
Omair Bhore i vote for coked up in the club
Got Mut? He also hasn’t been relevant in a long time, much like punters.
So should Deshone Kizer.
HAAAAA
Wasnt to bad a vid. Good to see the NFL kickers are finally catching up with the AFL (Australian Football League).
this was interesting
agreed
Honest KiD yea
Well now I actually have respect for punters. Thanks NFL.
“He’s changing the way we kick a football “Australians: “We’ve been doing all these kicks for 100 years!”
And on both sides of the body
The ravens have the best kicking duo in the nfl. At least we still have that
warren ward but Adam vinnateiry pat macaffe
@Jake Shattuck *New England Patriots leave the chat after realizing wrong one*
Jacob Couvutsakis gostowski is not good anymore
Rams are number two
Every team is good at the game except the Ravens.
At least we all have that
Koch - "can everyone do it , probably not"
Every Australian watching 😉
Australians are kicking these at the age of 7 lol
@@xbc2000_ and on both feet
Only time youll ever hear "great job on that safety" lmao
I love how he says “we”, he Includes all the special teams as
I've always thought it would be great to have an ambidextrous punter who could roll out in either direction and have the option to run, pitch it out, punt it rugby-style, or drop a short pass for a first down.
finao o . If I were a punter I would want to be able to jump 15 yards, because then I would never even have to punt. I would just get an automatic first down every time.
There's less of a point to rugby puts in the NFL vs. College though, because in the NFL only the gunners are allowed to run before the ball is punted.
So you're after an Aussie.
We grow up learning to kick a standard drop punt on both legs. The professionals can kick 50+ metres (100cm compared to a yard, which is only 91cm, so 50m is 54yards) on both sides of the body.
Perhaps 3/4 of a century ago in American football was the time of the so called "60 minute man", due to a then long established rule that a player substituting out could not substitute back in until the next quarter. Back then, an player who could run well and pass well and kick well was referred to as a "triple threat" player on offense.
With essentially unlimited substitutions in modern 21st Century American football, the generalist has been replaced by the specialist. There are players whose main job is to pass, other players who main job is to run, and other players whose main job is to kick. The old time "triple threat" player has become a thing of the past, as has become the player who plays both offense and defense, and in addition plays "special teams", meaning being in on kicking plays.
No idea how him and Tucker got black balled on this years pro bowl
Sam the Super Bowl MVP!!
Naaah*
A HOLD IN THE END ZONE RESULTS IN A SAFETY!!! Quit with the "49ers got robbed" & "NFL is fixed" BS. There are a dozen comments at least about the 49ers being held on the safety. YES they were held, but it doesn't matter at all because a hold in the end zone is a safety, and they don't end the play on a holding call or go back and put time back on the clock if a penalty occurred early in a play. So the refs correctly ignored the holding and watched for something that COULD effect the outcome. A holding penalty in the end zone has always been a safety, You guys know this and keep posting about the 49ers getting robbed. P
Jackie Singleton q
@@kimchi2780 exactly, that would have ended the game. So the 49ers coaches would have declined the penalty so they could have a shot at tying the game.
Would they have intentionally held longer would of guaranteed the win that much more just like they did a few years later against the Bengals
czcams.com/video/baCeMpAZIgI/video.html
well of course the nfl is fixed, if there is money involved it is rigged
I wonder what the 49ers excuse is in 2020?
I never thought i would be so fascinated by this!!! Just a man mastering his craft!
Man, after watching this video... I wouldn't be surprised to see Koch in the HOF one day. You revolutionize the game like that? You deserve it, regardless of stats.
love seeing punters getting recognition
I’m a Steelers fan but since I lived in Maryland I went to their camp for free and met Mike Wallace (former Steeler) their coaches Sam Koch Dennis Pitta and got a signed poster and card
Awesome!! This is why I have been a fan for 6yrs or more
I never would have thought I would watch a video about a punter or punting at all.... Yet here I am.... Lovin it
Any mention of a change in punting technique has to include Darren Bennett, the Australian rules footballer who kicked for the Chargers. He passed his skills on to other punters in the league (including long timer Mike Scifres, whose punts helped beat Manning's Colts in a playoff game). Completely changed the punting game. Respect to Bennett!
Exactly this prik cook is riding Darren's coat tails if it wasn't for the fact that Darren wasn't allowed to do alot of kicks he wanted to do at the time, he would have had a massive impact than he already had.
I can do all those punts.......... i just cant control which one i do, when i do it, and what direction it goes in!
Great video. Super interesting.
Great piece
That was really well produced.
Joe Flacco doesn't throw spirals though lol.
you gotta be kidding me... if you're serious, you have never watched one Ravens game
This Is My Name I don't even watch the ravens but when I do that man be throwing BULLETS
Certainly didnt throw any on 9/24/2017
He throws spirals in the rain.......
These butthurt ravens fans
I appreciate and respect this man
Nice, this brings me back to reading ESPN magazine. Glad to see people are thinking of everything out there.
koch is not a punter, he is an artist. he makes punting to an art. thats awesome
Sam Koch is my brothers friends cousin no joke!
This makes me love punters. Sam Koch is hilarious
The technical side of kicking.
love it!
As a Ravens fan I can say that it's kind of a weird dynamic when two of your best, most valuable players are the punter and kicker. And it's been that way for the last 15 years.
Every person over 6 years old in Victoria Australia can do every single one of those kicks! This is shocking
Great vid
That's phenomenal!
I'm in love with Katie Nolan.
Australian punts are becoming popular now
Rugby league and afl kick the ball basically the same way we call it a drop punt
One of my favorite things in Madden is having A. having a good punter and B. being forced to punt around the 50 yard line. Sam Koch may have intentionally run a safety, but I love punting to make safeties.
Great video! Glad he is a Raven
I couldn't count how many holds I saw when Koch took the safety
time
Rory O'Connor It wouldn't matter if they accepted the penalty
Rory O'Connor the Ravens just did it again knowing exactly what they were doing
It was intentional, and the penalty really wouldn't have meant anything, but the fact that the game plan for them was to hold, which everyone exercised, and it still wasn't called by a single ref, was really fucking annoying. I'm a niner fan btw
That’s part of the play is for the o line to hold them as long as possible
this looks similar to how kicking is done in rugby.
Teams would be doing box kicks next lol
Not really, coming from an ex college rugby player.

Aussie Rules football.
Forever a raven legend
Amazing!!!
#Punterlivesmatter
2:01 "Just like Joe Flaco throwing a spiral." Yea throwing an interception.
They both go to the other team.
Ive always loved the ravens my 9 years of life
Walk on Punter from Seward, Nebraska turned Nebraska black shirt and 12 year NFL veteran. Husker Nation is proud of you! Go Big Red!
Sam Martin and the Lions I hope your watching this!
na man Jhonny Manzel should become a punter😄
PxG Cookie joh
Best punter in the NFL
DUKEDAGOD McCLINTON m
51 and 37 was holding. shit 37 tackle him lol
good point I forgot about that. you mean the 10 second run off?
Franty Gutierrez XD
This was actually very interesting
Also love the Sam Koch punts that hit the one-yard line and take a bounce away from the end zone. Go Ravens!
"That was a great job on that safety" Don't hear that from the Offensive side a lot.
Lowkey burn there... "punts look like a Joe Flacco spiral"
Savage
this was posted on my birthday and was wearing a ravens jersey at the time!!!
as a cheifs fan whose seen some rough years, Dustin colquitt is very appreciated here because there was a time when our offense was shitty his numerous puntt inside the 20, 10 and even 5 were looked forward to.
Jeff Locke probably can't do this shit
MinneapolisLegend28 I was thinking the same damn thing lol
“Can everyone do it?” .... Everyone who plays Rugby or Australian Rules can do this and have been doing kicks like this for decades. Americans have just been a bit slow to catch up
Well, they're pretty special mate.. Hence the protection needed
Best tackle by a punter was the Aussie Punter the Chargers used to have back in the day. He clotheslined a returner, up around the chest/neck, that was running full speed by him. This guy went horizontal b4 he hit the ground..
Punting is one of the most underrated aspects of the Game. Despite being amazing to practice.
I wish the NFL would integrate the all free reign rule XFL punts had(25+ yard punts can be recieved by either team). It would make punters much more pivotal
It’s pronounced “Cook?” I thought it was pronounced “C-ah-ch”
I thought it was Pronounced Coke
I still don’t know how to spin the ball while kicking...
I punted in high school and my coach made me practice that sideline bouncer punt like the one vs the bengals.
Fantastic
Who’s here after retirement
have you ever been so bored you watched a 10 minute video about punting?
yeah
EDommett were u so bored that u replied to ur own question
8 minutes
EDommett no I like punting
Clearly
I love this game
So rugby kicks?
Yea I get it, its a craft, but let's not glorify it like not converting on 3rd down is a good thing. Less punts = good times lol.
Lol. Coming from someone who loves defence, more punts are a good thing. See the dilemma? Its called balance.
I grew up with Sam. Interupted party with 'Ray-ray"... Sam is one hell of a good person, Im so proud of him. (even if he hit my with a bean-ball in little league). Sam is incredible.
Hell yea Sam Koch is my boy! Also he's huge for a punter lol
But when u punt it, often it will be a bad spiral. Just like Joe Flacco
Being a kicker is tough. You’re either a Hero or the most hated player on the team- Blue mountain state
werthy is my name Different for punters though
Damn I love NFL Films.
Amazing.
#PuntsOutForHarambe
no
