Happens in Aussie Rules all the time.

[@eshrecords]

bruh its a different game.. of course it happens all the time..

[@gym_bob]

Bill Belichek said double punting was very common in the 20s and 30's.

[@phydeaux5090]

ya but it was very different context (receiver punts) and admitted he's never seen anything like Dickson's.

[@markdouglas9182]

Well Bill was playing High School football in the 20's and 30's, so he'd remember first hand.

[@jswaggart01]

He would know, he was there 😜

The they’re overlooking is Aussie Rules. 😂🤣🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@Marshalmathe]

Amazing player and kick

[@GodRockCafe]

It's the greatest football play I have ever seen. I hate it wasn't on a team doing more for itself at the time. I dream of a Super Bowl where Dickson takes over and shows the world why he is indescribably great.

[@ckobo84]

Does the first punt count statistically?

[@divinecomedy7311]

Hekker wishes he has Dickson's talent lmao no other punter in the league can pull that off, that boy special...

Nope.

[@qbeats2062]

@@ssway28 it was seen in real time. Then reviewed. I’m sure you’re television is amazing, but it’s not as amazing as a referee in a replay booth, with NY HQ in his ear looking at the same thing. Find something else to cry about, simp.

[@aggilos9650]

As long as any part of his body is behind the line when he kicks it is a legal kick. And half his body was behind the line so completely legal kick.

[@petesmith9472]

History is against you.

[@thadtheman3751]

He was definitely past the line of scrimmage.

[@mikediao15]

beside that, his guys pass the line of scrimmage... only two from far side are allowed to run before the ball was kicked. refs just don't understand the rules at this point.

[@mondexponent2126]

@@mikediao15 but the ball was kicked. It just got kicked twice

[@mikediao15]

@@mondexponent2126 yeah the second kick has to be only kick if the players are behind the line of scrimmage otherwise it’s call an offside. That’s the rules. That’s why blocking puns is very important. The moment you block it, all the opposition players would be down the field and be offside if the kicker kick it twice.

[@mondexponent2126]

@@mikediao15 well. I know there’s been a rule change for this year regarding a double punt. I’ll leave that to the refs then.

@@mondexponent2126 yeah there has but the offside still apply. The changes was in regards to kicking it while still behind the line of scrimmage.

that was stupid call by refs..lol you can't kick it again if half of your team is over the line of scrimmage. its not that hard to figure.

[@nothanksguy]

Actually that's false, after the first punt players are allowed downfield.

[@stantheman9072]

@@mikediao15 once a punt is blocked, there is no penalty for releasing from the line and going down the field. What’s the chances of the block being recovered behind the line with enough clearance to even be able to kick it again? Probably we will never live to see it happen again.
