Congratulations Johnny!

Anyone have the previous best handy?

 

[PhxRam]

ray guy?
Ruby?

just guessing..

 

[RaminExile]

That's great. Anyone else notice all the announcers went on about though was Ryan trying to get the record for least return yards allowed until Pettis broke that 32 yard return?

 

[jsimcox]

Previous best was 43.9
My man Johnny beat it handily!

Yep. Hilarious thing? The returns in that game gave Seattle 82 PR yards allowed. With Golden Taint having -2 yards...the Rams ended the year with 79 PR yards allowed. :heh:

Great player. And still so young, we have a gem on our hands for a long time coming. Special teams is such an undervalued aspect of football Hekker is truly a weapon that I am glad to have on our side.

Glad to have a guy like Hekker on our team. Congrats Johnny

just talking about this on another forum and was reminded that one of his punts in either week 1 or 2 was taken back for a TD, and who can forget the punt that should have/could have been downed at the one , but ended up a touchback. Imagine what his net avg would have been

With Quinn not getting the Deacon Jones award and Stacy not getting a 1,000 yards, at least I have some firepower for off season smack talk!

The Rams are the best at punting! :juiced:
