Matt was the best punter in the league for a period of time. I think fassell may want anger more for the fake punt situations. Maybe he’s got a better arm than hunter?It's fine that people want to think Niswander should somehow be relegated because he has missed OTAs due to what is being reported as a family situation. I don't know what that means but I assume the front office and coaching staff are clued in. But 47 yards per punt last year. Unless Anger can top that he should just be fighting for second. Anger has kicked to that level in the past in his first couple of years that was a long time ago. The last several years he has been a yard less than that.. He's also 6 years older than Niswander. Which means he's probably a little more expensive. We shall see.. I just don't think Fassell needed to come out like this.. but maybe he's playing a little mind game with Niswander to get him out to the facility. I just miss the hell outta Mat McBriar who I could count on to flip the field from any point on the field. Even when we were backed up we almost never saw the other team start in our territory. I hated the heck outta that guy getting hurt. We have not had a top notch punter since.
its called protocolImagine a grown man being afraid to come out and practice.
Might need some Anger management for Cowboyszone posters the first time he shanks a punt.
Holding is a good pointAgree with you on hangtime & kickoffs, plus we don't know if there was any holding issues with Niswander on fgs. Also any chance Anger is good throwing the ball on trick plays?
You hire a special teams coach for his expertise and inputHere's a question....
How in the world is this FASSELS decision??
Right? He has no business coordinating the Special Teams!Here's a question....

It say family issuesits called protocol
i like how you all read into it hes afraid of covid but the riles say if you may have been exposed, exhibit symptoms, or live with people who had it, etc etc to self quarantine until you know for sure you dont have it..
this is also what KJ is doing yet 7 pages of horse manure about his character and dedication come into play until around page 6 people realize it was a valid excuse to miss practice..
fans are brutal..

He should shut his mouth publicly.Right? He has no business coordinating the Special Teams!
He ought to give his opinion to McCarthy, not local media.
Next up - the long snapper discussion...June is a wild time for football talk isn't it? Still a couple months away from pre season football, the draft feels like ancient history, and Dak finally has a contract this year. Tough to do the constant Trystan Hill debates or argue about DLaws contract anymore. The punter talk actually feels refreshing in an odd way.
Oughta broughta Whataburger.He ought to give his opinion to McCarthy, not local media.
Maybe Cowboys need real competition at kicker too.
Zeurlein didn't impress much.
I'm not supposed to have a problem with "how this team rolls" when "how this team rolls" in that regard is the obvious problem year after year?Oughta broughta Whataburger.
So... when did you start following this team? Last week?
You know how this team rolls.
At least, you should know how this team rolls.
I'm not even certain if this case is any different from how other teams roll.
Do coordinators give updates on their personnel on other teams, or is that taboo and exclusive to the Cowboys?

....and Whataburger tastes like pure crap.
I think the norm in the league is to limit coordinators speaking publicly.....not that Fassel has reached that status.
Then again I heard all those ridiculous ST fakes last season were his call, so hey.....why not let him speak also?
That's what our organization is about isn't it?.....hey look at me, this is what I know.....from the very top on down. Everyone all over the place.
It's worked well.
All fine if you've accepted it. I haven't.
