All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.
—T. E. Lawrence,

To me it honestly feels like one guy punts and then the coaches say "ugh... that was awful.. let's try the other one, he can't be any worse..."  then the other guy punts and it's just as bad.. and round and round we go.

Strategery.  Just think of all the countless practice hours our opponents have to spend preparing for two different punters.  Brilliant!

Yep, there doesn't appear to be any strategy involved.   Seems like we would be better off sticking with one and seeing if he could get into some kind of rhythmn.
