If punt is good - PR catch the ball then tacklers are near him.
If punt is too long PR have adition time for good return.


I don't think a punt can be too long (other than in a touchback), however, the hang time can be too short.


Choose the punt from two variants:
1. 42 yards long and fair catch (as result no return)
2. 62 yards long and return to touchdown


As Toni said this would most likely be due to low hang time in the second scenario.

1. 42 yards long, 5 seconds hang time => Fair caught.
2. 62 yards long, 3 seconds hang time => Room for big return.

Conclusion? We need a hang time stat because distance alone isn't such a great indicator of how good/bad a punt was.

Interesting story about the longest punt (98 yards - 75 yards in the air) in NFL history: O'Neal's 'Perfect Moment' Punt in Denver
