Hanson's got a pretty good leg, and he was kicking really well as DarrylS already pointed out. If there's one legit criticism, it's that he hasn't dropped many inside the 20. But that doesn't mean he's the worst punter in the league like a lot of haters think.
If we had a guy like Mike Scifres, maybe that changes the equation. But Hanson wouldn't be a factor in the decision to go for it.
We like to make things more complicated than they really are. Anyone who watched the game was thinking with 2:30 left that if the Colts get the ball back they were going to win. BB felt the same way and unlike most coaches who would have punted and lost simply to avoid public criticism, he went with what he thought was the only way to win the game.
don't know which game you were watching, but Hanson was kicking really well on Sunday night. i think his average was over 40 yards and the coverage was good all game.
