bigevhfan Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 This unit is killing the team. I think Suisham has been decent. But PR team has been horrible with the exception of Moss' TD against the Lions. Randle El has done nothing. KR coverage has been terrible. We given up multiple TD's on this unit this year. And last night, we give up the punt block that led to points. Anyone think Danny Smith/Zorn need to make some changes to personnel on the ST unit?

Boss_Hogg Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 The blocked punt happened right in front of me.. I noticed two things: 1.) The left side of the line just collpased, I have no idea what happened. I just so an onlsaught of white shirts. 2.) Plackemier has the slowest wind up I have ever seen in a punter. He is a good 1-2 seconds slower than Frost or Brooks. It is no wonder Seattle (pardon the pun) gave him the boot early this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnFoRcEr_uPu Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 The first change that needs to be made is to take Devin Thomas off of punt coverage. I'm almost positive he gave up the blocked punt, and he got beat by the gunner on returns almost every single play. I think Randle El had 4 or 5 fair catches as a result.

Cooley4President Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 One thought I had last night, it almost looks like we're conceding the fact that we can't return punts with the current unit. I say this because it appeared that we rushed more last night and basically said "just make the fair catch Antwaan, don't worry about returning".

10fttall Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 There is a silver lining to Randle El making fair catches: he's not gonna go backward. Seriously though, a good number of their punts were not super long but very high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowledge316 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 the ST has been terrible this season...Rock hasn't been able to get many good returns, Punt coverage has been just awful along with PRs i think we definitely should draft someone just for the KR and PR duties, someone like Derrick Williams in the 4th round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
