I'll probably get flamed for this, but I'm going throw out a name:
Dave Wannstadt
Pittsburgh connection
Coached special teams at Pitt when he was Head coach
Was Special Teams coach for Tampa Bay Bucs (I think for a season under Schiano)
He was with Buffalo, for a spell, now I think he's out of coaching.
Just throwing it out there - I'm not for or against it, it just popped into my head. I don't know why, just popped in there.

The way he attacked Brandon Bostic on the sideline after Seattle's successful on side kick:Originally posted by Patler View PostSo, does Slocum land an NFL job of any type anywhere else? Does he go back to the college ranks? It seems experience is valued over results in the NFL, and the same guys get recycled over and over on different staffs.
I think that Shawn Slocum has a real future in cage fighting.** Since 2006 3 X Pro Pickem' Champion; 4 X Runner-Up and 3 X 3rd place.

I'm glad he's gone but I do feel for his family. Nobody likes to see somebody lose his job.
MM had better remove any trace of Shawn Slocum's influence on future ST's. After that ...no it cannot be much worse.
Think of it this way Pugger.
That's Slocum's back to that 'green' arrow.

Maybe next year we'll read a story like this about GB...
Funny, same ST coach.Kelly won the NFC East and presided over the NFC’s best offense in his debut season. But that first year was a learning experience and one of the lessons Kelly learned was that he needed better special teams.
Philadelphia finished 18th in the NFL in special teams in 2013, so Kelly undertook a sweeping upgrade last offseason.
Kelly traded for returner Darren Sproles and kicker Cody Parkey and signed a pair of special*-teams coverage aces in free agency, Bryan Braman from the Texans and Chris Maragos from the Seahawks. Kelly also hit on undrafted college free *agent Trey Burton and street free *agent Chris Prosinski for his coverage units.
The changes were dramatic. The Eagles vaulted all the way to the top of the league in special teams, finishing first in the 2014 NFL special*-teams rankings compiled annually by The Dallas Morning News.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Yep, personnel makes the big difference.Originally posted by Maxie the Taxi View Post
However, 7 blocked kicks don't happen if the ST coach is doing his job. There may not be a big time KO returner but the lines of both offense and defense are strong enough to form a coherent blocking unit despite injuries.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
