At first glance, this was just another futile attempt by an undersized specialist at tackling a player paid for his speed,Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale, agility and size, not simply for the strength and accuracy of his leg. Lanning was at least a good sport about the gaffe. He said he wasn't mad.
If the kicker or the punter is in such a position, they're often the last chance to prevent a touchdown that can make the difference in winning or losing. Their disadvantage, against a returner approaching at full speed, in this scenario is stark.
The sight of Antonio Brown's foot in Spencer Lanning's face as the Pittsburgh returner was trying to elude the Cleveland punter last Sunday elicited sympathetic cringes and derisive laughs from far and wide.
Full tackling drills in practice these days in the NFL are rare even for defensive players, so the most work the specialists typically get in this area is with pursuit angles after the ball is kicked. They're taught how to effectively use the sideline as an extra teammate.
Touchbacks and fair catches are always the goal. That's not cowardice, but rather common sense. If a returner is racing toward a kicker or a punter that means he, or a teammate or two on the coverage unit,Wholesale Jerseys Cheap, has not done his job.
"I got a FedEx letter that Wednesday,Sale NFL Jerseys," Kern said of the $5,000 fine. "I almost broke down in tears having to tell my wife about that."
"It's icing on the cake if you can make a tackle and bring someone down," said Kansas City punter Dustin Colquitt, who made the Pro Bowl in 2012.
The instincts aren't always there,Wholesale Jerseys China, because most of them have been focused on kicking their whole career.
"He was right on him. He got his arm around his leg, still, and he made him stumble," Minnesota punter Jeff Locke said.
"Hopefully I'll get a highlight soon, right?" Locke said,Wholesale Jerseys, pausing to reconsider: "Or hopefully I don't get a highlight soon. I never want to be that guy."
Fair catches and down-field tackles that prevent long returns, of course, are far more common than punters being part of the play. Touchbacks for kickers have the same effect. Rare is the moment when the specialists are in sole position to stop a runback.
"He just should have given me a move, I thought, but whatever," said Lanning, who had a sore neck and a bruise over his right eye but was uncertain whether that came from the collision.
"I caught a lot of grief from my friends. I saw the pictures because they were sent to me. I've seen all the videos, and I do think they're pretty funny. I have to admit people do have some time on their hands," Lanning said this week. "But at the end of the day, I probably would have had more fun with it had we won."
The task, however, is no joke.
Chiefs kicker Cairo Santos was on a high school team in Florida with only 19 players, though, so he had to play some on defense. Some guys, like Oakland's Sebastian Janikowski, are big enough to deliver jarring hits. Indianapolis kickoff man Pat McAfee pancaked Denver's Trindon Holliday during a game last season.
Brown drew an unnecessary roughness penalty but said he meant no harm. After appearing to abort his hurdle mid-stride when realizing Lanning was not going to desperately dive at his knees and instead had him properly lined up like any defender would, Brown's leg wound up headed straight for the front of the orange helmet.
"I tried to get over him," Brown said after the game. "There was no intent to hurt him. It was just a bad outcome of a play."
Brown was fined $8,268 by the NFL on Friday.
For all the diving catches and long runs during the NFL's opening weekend, the most enduring image might have been a blooper.
Tennessee punter Brett Kern, as a rookie with Denver at the time, was about to be leveled during a play while an Oakland blocker had his hand against his chin. So Kern held on, twisted the guy's facemask and brought them both to the turf.
"If you can just slow him down until somebody who is in pursuit can come and get him,NFL Jerseys Wholesale, you've done your job," Vikings kicker Blair Walsh said.
Colquitt fondly remembered former teammate Daniel Sepulveda in action: "He can absolutely boss return guys. He just had that linebacker mentality, so it was fun."
Lanning's peers, naturally, expressed pride in his effort, courage and technique.作者:

MRL sued again…Another rice farmer has sued the Mahaicony Rice Limited (MRL) and this time the embattled company is being asked to repay over $98M in outstanding monies.This latest court action follows one last week which was filed by Essequibo rice farmer and businessman, Arnold Sankar, who is asking for $125M.According to Anil Nandlall, one of the attorneys hired by Sankar, a lawyer for the MRL appeared before Justice Rishi Persaud on Friday and agreed that the company will lodge a bank guarantee for $125M by tomorrow on the condition that the shipment of rice valued at a hefty $200M be allowed to leave.Attorney-at-law Anil NandallHowever, on Friday, New York-based farmer,Cheap Authentic Jerseys, Mohamed Shariff, through Attorneys-at-law Nandlall, Manoj Narayan and Euclin Gomes, filed court documents,China Jerseys Wholesale, which claimed that between March and April, he sold and delivered to MRL a quantity of paddy valued at $108M.

He also asked for the same rice not to be removed or loaded aboard any ship.Shariff, in his claim, said the company acknowledged owing him and had committed to start payments by July 12th.“To date, almost one month has elapsed since the Defendant promised to commence payment and despite the several requests and demands of the Plaintiff, the Defendant has failed, refused, neglected and omitted to commence payment of the aforesaid sum,” the claim said.The farmer asked the court for an injunction restraining MRL from removing or loading on board any ship the 5000 tons currently stored at Muneshwar’s Wharf.Alternatively, MRL is asked to lodge $98,165,003 and interest and costs. The matter comes up on September 1.In court documents filed by the same lawyers last week,Sankar, in an ex-parte application by way of an Affidavit for Interim Injunction, claimed he acted as an agent of MRL, using his own money to purchase paddy from other farmers, which is then resold to the company on a commission-basis.Sankar claimed he has secured loans from GBTI to finance purchases.Claiming he owed the bank in excess of $100M, the Airy Hall businessman stated that between September 2009 and November 2009, he purchased approximately 113,000 bags of paddy to the tune of $251M from farmers in Essequibo, which were fully paid for using his own money. The paddy was delivered to MRL.Attorney-at-law Manoj NarayanHowever, between March 19 and April 2, 2010, Sankar said the company paid five cheques,Cheap NFL Jerseys, valued $25M each, which were rejected by a local bank.“I have made repeated demands to the Respondent/Defendant for payment of the aforesaid sums but to no avail.”Sankar further claimed that MRL is getting ready to ship this weekend, over $200M worth in rice which is stored at Muneshwer’s Wharf,Cheap NFL Jerseys, at Water Street, Georgetown.“From the time I have supplied the aforesaid paddy to the Respondent/Defendant to date, they have shipped hundreds of millions of dollars of rice out of Guyana but nonetheless have refused to pay me or the rice farmers who have sold and delivered paddy to them,” the businessman claimed.As a result, Sankar said that he is claiming the $125M, which represents monies from the bounced cheques, and an injunction restraining MRL from removing or loading approximately 5000 tons currently stored at Muneshwer’s Wharf until further ordered, or alternatively, unless and until they lodged $125M at the court.Sankar also claimed that MRL is indebted to him for another $50M for paddy,Cheap NFL jerseys China, which was sold and delivered to them earlier this year, and for which no payments were made.Over the past weeks, there has been mounting pressure on MRL after several complaints from rice farmers to government regulators about non-payments.Several rice farmers had staged picketing exercises at a Black Bush Polder facility, Region Six,Cheap Adidas Hockey Jerseys, and also at Mahaicony.Officials of the Guyana Rice Development Board, regulators of the rice industry, have said that they were facing problems getting MRL to pay farmers for more than $300M in paddy taken during the last crop.Recently, another amendment was made to the law that will force millers to lodge 10% cash value of their last crop value before milling licences are issued.GRDB and Minister of Agriculture, Robert Persaud, in addition to promising free legal advice, have also signaled intentions to pass legislation to reduce the possibility of monopolies in the rice industry.Currently MRL controls almost 40% of the p作者:
