Special teams is embarrassingly bad. still

[snadler]

Between the mixed extra points, and the pollard muff..our special teams is still awful

Why is it that someone can't tell Pollard NOT TO EXIT THE END ZONE?

The issue was he muffed it. Can't do that if you are going to take it out.

Even if he doesn't muff it, he continues to bring the ball out, while you see Seattle always takes the touch back. You can't keep coming out with the ball when you know you're not going any where.

Don't forget about Chris Jones and his 28th ranked 39.8 avg on punts. Dude has been on the decline since 2018...

Can't blame coaching for stupid players making stupid decisions such as Pollard.
However this also applies to the defense and the dumb penalties.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

We need a new punter.

 

[dwreck27]

I’ve said it before but we need a huge turnover of the roster

STs needs a big gut job

Two missed extra points.

Has that *ever* happened before with a legitimate starting FG kicker?

Heath was 2/3 on extra points. 2/5 for touchbacks!

GOAT!

Garrett also took the touchback and it resulted in nothing. I'm for aggressive special teams play. If we wren't...they shouldn't have signed Fassel.

I understand what you're saying, but I think the most we've gotten from Pollard coming out was to the 26. That one yard isn't worth the potential losses we can receive from coming out.

Or just tell him to sit on the bench and have Wilson returning?

The plan is to get good field position though not make it to the 26.

I agree. The problem is that Pollard is awful at KR. I seriously hope he's not our best option there. I'd rather Wilson and/or Lamb be back returning.

The plan going forward should be allow the touch back. Pollard is dumb.

 

[nightrain]

Punt returns and coverage units are better. KO returns and kickers are a disaster.

I think with Pollard they just wan the ball in his hands. I'm not sure if I'd force him there.

Scared money don't make no money though.

His punts are 15 yards short

I see where you're going. Give me a 4.2 shifty smart player, and I'm all for your plan.
