Warhead36 Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 While the Offense continues to stink up the joint and the Defense remains inconsistent, our Special Teams has quietly been a backbone for us. Hunter Smith has been booming the ball and our coverage guys have kept everything under wraps(the Rams had at least a couple KO returns that couldn't even reach the 20). While Zorn and Blache have been failing, Danny Smith has been the stud of the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rypien1191 Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Rock sucks. Im pretty sure you could put me in there, and I could return KOs to the 25 yard line every time. Sorry, I like the guy as a person and hes put in good work here, but theres no point having him return KOs anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with you that our return game is pretty crappy, but thats more on the talent of the returner than the coaching. I'd put Hall at full time PR, but I think we're stuck with Rock at KR for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I like the guy as a person and hes put in good work here, but theres no point having him return KOs anymore. Rock doesn't work well without the 3 man wedge, and I would like to see Thomas be given the chance to return kickoffs with the speed he possesses, since he's not going to be much of a factor on the offense; at least he can set up the offense with good field position. However, there's no way you could return the ball to the 25 every time, any one of us fans would be lucky to get to the 15 every time. We don't have the speed or ability to juke 200+ pound guys and reach the 25 yard line on every return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxpunk2006 Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 While the Offense continues to stink up the joint and the Defense remains inconsistent, our Special Teams has quietly been a backbone for us. Hunter Smith has been booming the ball and our coverage guys have kept everything under wraps(the Rams had at least a couple KO returns that couldn't even reach the 20). While Zorn and Blache have been failing, Danny Smith has been the stud of the staff. Blache called a defense that held the Rams to 7 points. He called a defense that bailed our team out in the fourth quarter after the offense failed to convert fourth down. He called a defense that took the ball away in the Redzone to prevent St. Louis from taking a lead against us in the second half. Blache and our defense have been lights out thus far this season.

hkHog Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Exactly right, special teams has been outstanding. Defense has been very good too though, we need to tighten up on the tackling but we are definitely one of the best defenses in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooka Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 The 52 yard punt from our end zone might've been the play of the game. Kudos Hunter. Our coverage was also excellent this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckus Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Good point. We have come a LONG way from last year. It is nice to have a real punter. With our offense struggling, and our defense playing pretty well, special teams could decide a handful of games this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam291 Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 I was thinking this today, and it's even more impressive because we have a lot of rookies and younger guys on ST. Plus the loss of Thrash and Campbell. Danny Smith is doing something right, not to mention him yelling at Zorn today to let the clock run down a little bit before calling timeout.
