    I have concerns about the special teams. In a close game the field position battle really can kill you. I hate the idea that we could play the Patriots, be up 6 with 45 seconds to go and give them the ball on the 40 after a kickoff.

    Or even worse.

    Only up by 2. Give them the field position on the 40. And all they need is a field goal.


    Honestly though, I feel like our special team is improving. I'm hoping those last two kicks by Donnie Jones were due to the weather more than anything.

    ^ My goodness, please shorten your signature, sir... :( I'm just speaking for myself: it's difficult to follow your post and what you mean to say inside all that signature stuff, and more so if you quote someone else and your thoughts get squished. :cool:

    I'm with rolyat93. This team is unstoppable. Even the weather can't stop us with the D we have. I agree, we have some problems on Special Teams, but nothing the D can't take pick up after the dust settles.

    Or be down 4 with 1:05 to play and get the ball at the 9 yard line.:grin:
