Michael Dickson SB Performance

[Wizofwest]

Seahawks fans know Dickson is a high performer and worth every dollar of being the highest paid punter in the NFL. He executed at the highest level in the biggest game.

He punted 7 times for 335 yards. Only two punts were returned and 3 of his punts were downed inside the 6-yard line. Just another example of winning at every aspect of the game.

MVP Runner-up material no doubt.

It's pretty cool when your kicker is just as much a strategic part of the team, making an actual difference in most of his opportunities, as any of the other players.

 

[SocialParasite]

Great game for the punta from down unda!

 

[Sperrydogg]

That line drive punt was awesome

 

[Appyhawk]

Dickson is a solid reason why they have punters as SPECIAL team players.

I have him as the #2 MVP after Walker. We dominated the field position game and he was an enormous part of that. If there has ever been a better performance from a punter in a SB, I don't remember it.

 

[JonRud]

Dickson was spectacular, as he always is.

 

[SKitsapHawk77]

Dickson was MONEY! Both our kickers showed out in this game. Truely a 3 phase team.
Offense, Defense and Special teams.

I would have been completely happy if he (a punter) would have been voted MVP

HISTORICALLY speaking I don’t believe there has ever been a better Super Bowl performance by a punter.
Maybe but I can’t remember one.

ETA
Our place kicker played equally well IMO

Highly unlikely there has ever been a better punting performance in the super bowl. Only a 1/16 chance (sorta) of the best punter playing in the super bowl, and how many previous punters were better than Dickson?

 

[Dolomight12]

Yep, certainly! Jay Harbaugh did his job as well or better as anyone this season. Our special teams are exactly that.

 

[hugecanoli]

Dude is the best punter in the NFL and has been for what seems to be a really long time.

Lucky to have him.

Every Player in this Team have an Impact so He do

 

[James in PA]

Our guys who kick the ball KICK ass! Dickson and Myers were $$$$ all night!

 

[Natethegreat]

Special teams was a huge part of our success this year. Seahawks were a complete team top to bottom.
Really great job by the coaching staff and the front office.

 

[Palmegranite]

Dickson is at the top of his game and put on a clinic.

And if the Seahawks would have needed him to punt the ball a second time on any one of those plays, we know now that he would gladly oblige!

From ESPN’s Barnwell

“The real star on special teams was punter Michael Dickson, who probably belonged right behind Walker and Witherspoon in the MVP discussion. Dickson punted seven times in this game, and in concert with an excellent Seahawks coverage unit, he yielded just 4 return yards to star Pats returner Marcus Jones. Dickson dropped three punts inside New England's 6-yard line and averaged 47.3 net yards per punt.”

 

[Chapow]

Dickson was actually the MVP of a bowl game in college. Very fitting that he was damn near the MVP of the Super Bowl.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Absolutely phenomenal performance
