I think it's important as it may not get noticed.

ST units were awesome this game. Didn't let Banks break free for big gains, blocked a FG (That actually would have won it for the Skins at the end of the game) and 6 FG's.

Great job to the ST.
 
ST was great and the coverage unit performance makes you wonder if Buehler still has a job. With that type of coverage, Bailey's kickoffs are just fine. Buehler has had a fan-favorite run here, but it may be coming to an end. It's a shame really. I had such hope for The Buehler.
 
The blocked kick was huge. The holder bobbled it, but Gano still had a chance to make the kick if it wasn't blocked.
 
They also held T Ginn in check as well last week. Love the hustle I'm seeing from the 'boys on ST because it gives the opposition horrible field position (which helps our defense).

No way the kick wasn't gonna be even close because the ball was not set right, he had zero chance of making that kick, it wasn't going to clear the crossbar.

Good call though...

All the special teams units were outstanding, with the exception of kick-returns at which they were adequate...

I like that I'm seeing some starters out there making plays on special teams too...

Oh it might have... It would have taken a miracle for the Cowboys not to get there and block it, but it's definitely possible to kick it that far even if you're flat-footed at the time... I played soccer and also have some experience kicking FG's, and it's not that hard to hit from 30 just by chipping it flat-footed with your toe, 36 might be pushing it though...
 
I'm really up on Bailey and what he's done since his first shank. Decent kick-offs last night to boot. (pun int.)


Why is the Beuller still here????

The defenders along the line were already on their side of the line of scrimmage. The ball would have never cleared after the bobbled snap.

They did an outstanding job on the coverage team both kick returns and punts. As Jimmy said there are 3 phases to the game. Offense, defense and special teams. If I had to say who won their battles out of the 3 units I would say Offense gets a tie, defense won and special teams won. So 2 out of 3 battle goes to Dallas and a win
 
Special teams definately did their job last night. Can't be more proud of the way they played last night and really so far this year.
