I've always wondered why out punt rtn team doesnt have all 10 guys block their 10 guys and hold them up for 2 seconds each at the line of scrim. This gives our punt man quite a bit more room to field the ball and possibly a 10 yard cushion to begin.
This would catch so many teams off guard, it would cause kios for the other team who hasnt played against it. Whata got to lose.
What is the alternative? Don't hold them up at the line and also (almost certainly) don't block the punt. That seems to be everyone's plan, quite frankly, and then somehow hope their punter shanks it, kicks it too low, or their coverage unit misses an open field tackle.
And if you are bent on blocking it, wouldn't a numbers advantage be one of your only ways? No one back to receive and run one extra person off the edge. (of course you would get seriously burned on a fake in that scenario).
