Props to the Special Teams

[john van brocklin]

I have been hard on our special teams for giving up the blocked kicks, and not getting any of our own.

So need to give credit where credit is due !

Props to the Cowboys special teams for the blocked punt and XPA against the Bears !!!

It's nice to see our special teams be an asset to our team and not a liability.

As Jimmy used to say special teams play is a third of the game and therefore important to the teams overall success.

The two blocks were very nice to see.

When was the last time the Cowboys blocked 2 kicks in the same game? Has it ever happened?

Special teams play has actually been among the league leaders for the past three seasons. But I would definitely agree, that blocked kicks wasn't a high mark area...until this Chicago game. Nice post.

The Cowboys blocked two punts against the Oilers back in 1991.

 

[yimyammer]

and they had a punt return for a TD if not for the holding call, almost had a trifecta

Harris almost busted one too.
Not sure he would have scored without the illegal block. Maybe though.
