Clearly, Matt Dodge, the Giants' punter, will be on his way to the Unemployment Office (or should be!). In Pennsylvania, his shockingly terrible punt would constitute "poor performance." In Pennsylvania, you can almost always get benefits if you are terminated for (perceived) "poor perfomance."
Now, in New York, the unemployment people would likely see this as "wrongful misconduct," since Matt Dodge was insubordinate in refusing to follow Coach Coughlin's express instructions to punt the ball out of bounds. However, in Pennsylvania, that would likely not be willful misconduct. The guy just sucks and could not follow instructions. That is not willful misconduct, that's incompetence, and in Pennsylvania, you get unemployment if you are fired for actual (or perceived) incompetence.
