Bad Weekend for Punters Continues in Chargers/Broncos Game

First we saw New Orleans Saints punter Thomas Morstead get nailed in the little punters. Than we saw New England Patriots punter Ryan Allen try to do something and succeeding in getting his behind handed to him. Now we have San Diego Chargers punter Mike Scifres (No. 5).

From Bleacher Report
At the start of the GIF you can see Scifres attempt to make a tackle and fail miserably. Apparently somewhere in the process he got hit pretty hard and eventually had to be helped from the field.

This is disturbing to me. I was going to teach my toddler how to punt so he could play a nice, safe position where he could make a cool million or so a year for about 20 years (not to mention the free education in college). 

Than again, being the son of the FatMan here he will likely turn out like Sebastian Janikowski. If that's the case he'll be able to take a hit just fine.
