2019 Punter Stats - Week 4

The Boom Rating is a performance measure on a scale of 0.00 to 1.00.  Multiple factors are included in the Boom Rating such as net yards per kick, line of scrimmage, and proximity to each end zone, etc.  All FBS game punts were factored into this score.  See our methodology.

Includes all games from September 19-September 21.

Notes:
1)  To be considered for the weekly Best Punter Award, a player must have a minimum of 3 punts.
2)  888 = had less than 3 punts in W4 (Week 4). --- USED FOR WEEKLY RANKING
3)  999 = has less than 10 punts all season. --- USED FOR TOTAL SEASON RANKING
4)  Boom Rating is rounded to three decimal places.  When players have the same Boom Rating, but different Rank, it means their Boom Rating is different beyond 3 decimal places.

Note about the Weekly Rating and Rank:
The Boom Rating is an effective tool to evaluate punters over the course of a season. However, on a weekly basis, the Boom Rating may lack nuance due to the small sample size each week. The issue is that acheiving 3 great punts is a lot easier than achieving, say, 8 great punts. Since the Boom Rating is based on percentages, it's easier to be perfect over 3 punts, compared to 8 punts.

To remedy this, we have created formulas that allow for direct comparison between punters with different number of punts in a given week. Each "number of punts" has a ideal standard. Think of it as the optimal score expected for that number of punts. Each week there may be a few punters who exceed that standard, but approximately 98% will be below the optimal standard. The comparison between players is made based on how far below the standard each punter performs. To allow for ease of reading, we set the top rating at 100.0.
