One of the things I like about Tory Taylor is how far he can punt the ball and still get really good backspin on the football with aim too. The guy is an artist!
The Bears had a clear need
They filled said need
Nobody should be complaining about the Punta from down unda
Exactly. I can remember almost thirty years ago the Bears drafted Todd Sauerbrun in the 3rd round. Don’t remember anyone complaining even though Sauerbrun didn’t really work out in Chicago.
@@tdubya75 I believe he was a 2nd round pick
@@brucestanley9330 You could be right. For some reason I was thinking he was a third round pick but can’t say for certain.
Analytics really open the eyes of the casual fan and highlights why the punting game is so important. Thanks for highlighting this.
Swifty continuing to cover all aspects of the sport. My man !!!
Love the pick! A coffin corner kick is a momentum changing play that can turn a game around and spell lights out at the end of the game to an opposing team. I love those plays almost as much as a Hester housecall!
Exactly, Swift thanks for bringing receipts. People complaining about 4th round options like the success of other position players would be a certainty when they usually aren't. Tory should earn a game ball or two this season.
What this is telling me, is that Poles is happy with this team. Obviously Poles values elite special teams players. We saw him get his guy velus for the return game last yr. He wanted a difference maker and we know it didnt work out now but you see the premium he's putting on these special teamers. Hes really committed to improving special teams.
Well done, Swift. Thank you.
Good special teams combined with that defense will be lethal.
Chicago up BEAR CLAWS DOWN 💯🐻🏈 T&T definitely a must!! FGB
Thanks for the FGB, which once again proves how jealous and envious Bear fans are of the Packers
Listen to University of Iowa opponents when they talk about what Taylor did to them. I want Bears opponents to be talking about how much the punter affected the game. In a good way.
This guys a beast. We really need an upgrade in this position. Pinning the opponent deep can win games
Swifty, the amount of research you do is amazing! And this video did not change my viewpoint, as it's right in line with yours. If you can pin a team 10 yd further back than they would have been, that's another first down they have to make. As always I love the channel! Keep killing it!
Appreciate it my man!
Im very high on Taylor !!! Great pick!!

"punters are people too" I love it bro! Old head bear fans gotta appreciate special teams we've seen the upside with hester and the downside with the double doink. I really liked the pick personally 🐻👇
I'm glad we drafted Tory, idc, where we drafted him. He will be a game changer, and that's what it's about..winning ALL phases of football. Thanks Swift ⏬️
Wow swifty ALWAYS on point!
I got my fingers crossed that he does make a huge difference!!!
BEAR 🐻 DOWN 👇
I ❤ the pick as it adds 2 advantages, 1, it allows the offense the possibility of growth into a new system with scoring plays with a shorten field and learning those plays early increases the weapons can improve theur scoring techniques right away. 2, Defence has the advantage if opposing team has 80 or more yards to score & our defense can deploy schemes to confuse the offense and blitzing become a concern for that offense. Therefore the overall strategy helps the entire team in all phases! GO BEARS AND BEAR DOWN 🐻 ❤❤❤
Hey Swifty! Check out the Raiders number one pick in the 1973 draft. Turned into a 7 time Pro Bowler and is the only player at his position in the Hall of Fame!
Great job I believe in Tory
On the other side of the punting coin, Poles is signing more safeties and linebackers for punt coverage. Too often the Bears use too many WRs and RBs on coverage, guys who don't know how to wrap up and tackle.
Poles is a great GM because of his attention to details!
Thanks Swifty. You helped soften my negative reaction to drafting a 4th round punter.
I never had a problem with the pick and once I learned who Tory Taylor was I was even more supportive. Punting is a critical factor in the game.
How demoralizing is it to fumble and loose the ball or to take a return back for a TD?
Pinning a team inside their own 20 increases the chances to turn the momentum in a game.
Field position matters! I agree completely Swifty that Taylor will make a difference right away. Can't wait to see our defense getting after teams inside their own ten yard line! 🐻⬇️

I agree and I like the pick. What nobody is talking about is Taylor is an athlete. He came up through Aussie rules football. He is the only kicker likely now in the NFL that has size and does not back down from contact. I look for Flus to make him a weapon. He will tuck and run if he sees an opening - and THAT is half the battle of punting. The receiving team MUST prepare for the fake every time with this guy. I also hope to see a couple snot knockers with this guy running downfield if that lil fuker gets loose. McCaffey did that as well. Honestly I hope he tries a couple fakes early in September so that every team is on notice. No cheating the play and just retreating into coverage.
Here's the thing, punter's may not be given much consideration when it comes to going into the Hall of Fame for example, but given the constantly changing kicking game in the NFL over the last three to five years, punting is taken on a much more significant role in the game end the game. That being said, you need to be able to pin the opponent back or flip the field with a strong leg. The Bears could have taken a defensive tackle, a defensive end, an offensive lineman with that pic, the chances are that person would have ended up buried on the depth chart. And this way this fourth round pick was utilized on a player that is going to operate at a near Pro Bowl level almost immediately and pay immediate dividends on the field. Whomever else they got in the fourth round was most likely going to end up as a practice squad player regardless of position
At least we didn't draft him in the second round like Todd Sauerbrun. I agree with you on fourth round not being too high . Bears have to win the field position game. Of 6,372 games played between 2005 and 2012, the team that won the field position battle won 71.9% of the time. It is a old Stat , all I could find .
Punting is winning! Go Hawks and go Bears!
I was pretty happy with the pick when I dove into his career. If you think this team is a 9-8 team, I bet he will help win at least one or two more games in crucial situations. Special teams is not a weak point on this team and while it all looks good on paper; I am totally buying in to the hype and excitement. Much more fun than gnashing your teeth looking for a Andy Dalton (for example) to somehow lead a mediocre roster to the play offs.
I admit I wasn't a huge fan of the selection because it was right after Bralen Trice but we ended up getting Booker in the 5th. I agree punters can matter. I prefer more hangtime. He should help us get better field positions so Santos can get more FG opportunities and closer ones. As long as we don't pick another punter in a decade I'm good ⬇️
So let’s put this into a different perspective. So the league is geared towards favoring the offense and handicapping the defense to allow for more touchdowns here’s how you put your defense in the best position to succeed. Making teams have to drive the length of the field is a daunting task and making the offense have to drive 80-90 yards is harder than 30-40. A guy like Taylor can break the will of the offense before they even step foot on the field. Watched it countless times at Iowa and that’s how Iowa won games with the worst offense in college football history 3 years in a row. As of now our defense is our strongest unit till the offense proves otherwise and Taylor makes the defense better. Bank on it.
Awesome point!!!
Yes it’s a very underrated part of the game and has declined greatly the last 20 years or so, as far as coffin corners go. I don’t know about y’all but one my very favorite plays is when they down it on the 1… especially if a guy dives and knocks it out of the end zone.
I was hoping the Bears could get him in the 4th round well before the draft. I thought there was a great chance he'd be gone earlier.
I WAS RIGHT ON 4 OF OUR 5 DRAFT PICKS...I HAD BOOKER GOING IN THE 3RD RD THO!!!!
Hopefully he's Ray Guy 2.0
A starter is a starter.
Watch some of this guys tape he won games for Iowa
I love the pick. The only thing better would have been if he was from New Zealand and not Australia. Go the Down Under Punter!
Now we need a Hester clone for returner or at least someone better than Pettis!!
Imagine if no matter how a Defense stops us. they are still going to only get the ball at their own 25.
It’s funny how Bear fans get so excited about a punter.
This video did not change my mind, Because: Punting is winning. 😉
Lol. Still a decent pick, if he's actually as good as advertised.
Tory Taylor won Iowa football games. There’s no debate
How do the conditions from Iowa's stadium differ from soldier fields... also has Taylor started punting from soldier
He punted up the road at Northwestern games pretty well
We had a great punter beat Detroit and Denver
Bear down
it’s a 4th round pick. the odds of finding a starter at high value positions is near zero and even finding a starter at low value positions like interior oline, linebacker and safety is not very good.
if you think your punter will be an all pro it’s worth it. if he is punter 20-30 then obviously it won’t be.
Look, at this point it's done and over with, I'm not raging against the move to draft a punter in the 4th round but I am not willing to go as far as to act as if it was a great move, dude could be the greatest punter of all time and it still wouldn't change my mind that he was drafted to high, I could see a team that is close to being complete drafting a punter that high but the Bears are not in that position just yet, I would much rather have a center like Van Fram instead of a punter, that's just me though. I still love what Poles is doing, just not this.
bears wont be punting much
Taylor is a top 5 punter for 10 plus years, then good pick, just another punter wasted pick
Hope its not pat o donald all over again
