Special Teams

[curtis loew]

And our special teams is back to its old ways... and screwed us again. Our punt coverage was non-existent on multiple punts, not just the TD.

Thats what we get for having 3 tight ends and 2 full backs on kick coverage. We need linebackers and safeties out there covering kicks... why we have 4 TE's and 3 FB's on the roster makes no sense.

Some of it isn't completely on the coverage. The one return was a line drive punt - that was a punter mistake, not coverage. Coverage couldn't even get down the field after that punt.

As for having like, TE's out there - why not? DB's are easily blockable... and we DO have some of them out there...

Just because were not throwing out any db's that get actual defensive playing time doesn't mean we don't have them on the coverage unit. One bad week against Devin Hester isn't going to get me all a fluster. Guy is one of the best returners in the history of the NFL.
