He had to kick the ball low to get it to go more than 50 yards, which is obviously a block risk. But the ball comes out clean, crisp and on line, consistently.

Lutz had a lot of kicks come off low early on until we brought in a kicking coach. Lutz is clutch and I'm not sure why we would invest the time looking for a kicker we don't need. However, Harbaugh did the same thing and basically gave us Lutz for free.
