[QUOTE="yeti92, post: 924652, member: 133"] A punter is not really accelerating much though, there is no benefit to that. The goal is to kick the ball as fast as he can, not run as far down field before kicking as far as he can. The 3rd step in a 3 step punt is the longest and the same as the 2nd step in a 2 step punt. The 2nd step in a 3 step punt is the same as the 1st step in a 2 step punt, which is about a normal stride length. Only the first step in the 3 step punt is unique, and it's typically pretty short, maybe even a half or stutter step. That's fine if you want to defer to DS. I would urge you to do your own research and draw your own conclusions, but I can understand this topic may not be of enough interest to you to warrant that.
