Five things to watch against the Chiefs
PackersNews.com | September 01, 2010
bdiams 1./b If the Packers are to be believed and their punting competition hasnt been decided even after six months of workouts and practices and three preseason games, then this is a huge game for Chris Bryan and Tim Masthay. It would appear Masthay has the edge, especially after his stellar punt last week against the Colts, which was muffed and recovered for a touchdown, and his strong week of practice that followed. The biggest concern about Masthay was his get-off time but during a practice this week, he was timed at an average of 1.99 seconds from the time the ball was snapped until it left his foot. Anything at 2 seconds or better is considered acceptable. Meanwhile, Bryan has been a bit more inconsistent with his hang times in the last couple of weeks.
