Spooky Special Teams

Time To Replace Tim Masthay

For the first time during the Ted Thompson/Mike McCarthy Era special teams wasn't the weak link on a team that had many weak links. However, punter Tim Masthay's year and a half odyssey of going from the best punter the Packers have had since Craig Hentrich to so Jekyll and Hyde it might be a good idea to find a replacement.

After Hentrich was allowed to leave in free agency in 1997, something former Packer General Manager Ron Wolf said was his biggest mistake, the Packers went through Sean Landeta (1 year-he left in free agency too). Louie Aguiar (2 years), Josh Bidwell (4 years- he left in free agency), Bryan Barker (1 year), B.J. Sander and Ryan Flinn (1 season), Jon Ryan (he was cut by Thompson before his third season), Derrick Frost and Jeremy Kapinos (1 season), Jeremy Kapinos (1 more year) and then Masthay took the job in 2010.

Masthay was fabulous for four and a half seasons until the second half of 2014. He still was having issues last year finishing as the 13th ranked punter. It's time to look for a new punter.
