    Time and time again I have seen our special teams miscues but nothing like what happened today. When your defense plays hard and stops a decent offense on 3rd down and you are getting the ball back. During the punt.............

    It really baffles me why the coaches can't see D Rey for what he is.. If we can clearly see it, why can't the coaches?

    D Rey had 2 opportunities where he should have got at least 10+ yards on PR, but did his usual dancing for a gain of nothing.

    I'd rather have d-will out there fielding punts. He might not gain a yard, but he at least knows when to catch it.

    agreed, and when he catches the ball deep in end zone, all I want is a knee. start at the 20, that isn't too much to ask, is it ?

    Reynaud really needs to just cut his losses and learn how to take a knee. We want the ball at the 20, not the 18 after 10 seconds of dancing east to west. Big returns aren't as frequent in the NFL these days anyway, so just accept that fact and move on.

    Big returns are a lot more frequent these days. We just don't have anyone competent enough to break a long one from time to time when it actually counts.

    Who the hell is our Special Teams coordinator? Didn't we fire our last one after a great season last year? :wall:

    between the safety in week 1 and this moronic punt play, our special teams coordinator needs talking to

    There's actually only been 2 kickoff return TD's and 4 punt return TD's through 5 games for most teams. Seems pretty low compared to last year's totals...
