AJ Cole is getting his money's worth

You know it's a bad game when the punter is getting credit for having one of the best moments, but it's still important to acknowledge his prowess.

He had five punts for 261 yards, which is an average of 52.2 yards per punt.

Not only this, but he pinned the ball inside the 20 yard line on three of his five attempts.

He had no touchbacks and flipped the field for the Raiders on multiple occasions when they desperately needed it.

It was all for not, as the Panthers ended up scoring from wherever they started on the field, but AJ Cole did his job.
