Sportsball question for those of you on the know: what makes a punt a punt? Does the offense have to declare it ahead of time? Is it only if the designated punter kicks it? Or can the QB just decide to pretend to do something on 4th and then have someone just surprise kick it?

A punt can technically happen on any down, but it’s generally done on 4th when you have more than 8 yards to go for a new set of downs. Anyone can punt, and there are trick plays built around it, such as hiking the ball to an adjacent player instead of the punter.

Without looking it up, I'd guess it's any drop-kick style, vs a kick from a tee or with a holder.

Usually it goes the other way around - punting is the standard on a 4th down if it's too far for a field goal, so that's what people are going to expect. As a trick play the offense can set up as if they're going to punt it but then run something else to try and get a first down. There's also a fake field goal that works the same way.

The upside to a punt is that it gets the ball farther from your own end zone, but the downside is that it gives the ball to the other team, so there's no reason to punt if you're not already about to lose the ball on 4th down.

The difference between a punt and a FG attempt is that a FG attempt has to touch the ground once. You can technically drop kick a field goal, you hit it on the first bounce.

Some kickers and QBs love the obscure rugby derived rule and try and get coaches to let them do it, heres Doug Flutie drop kicking a PAT in one of his final games before retirement:

Also QBs sometimes punt from the shotgun in a "quick kick", Tom Brady did it on third down once in one of the examples of Bellichick trying to out smart everyone with film.
