The GMen would’ve made the playoffs in 2010 if Dodge knew how to punt. I wonder where he is now.

I’ve never been so happy about a punter in my life. The fiasco of Matt Dodge I think scarred many Giants fans.

I’m very happy that we have a solid punter.

Same here. We would have made a run in 2010 with Weatherford.

We would have missed the playoffs this year with Dodge.

Good move by the Giants.
