Competition on Special Teams

Recommended Posts

I am extremely pleased (and mildly surprised) by the extent of the competition on special teams this offseason. No one is safe.

Disappointed with Huber's inconsistency and his holding? Bring in the Miami kid and let Shipley take some reps holding.

Not willing to overpay for Shayne-erratic? Rayner and Nugent will make for a nice competition.

Not satisfied with the return game? How do Pacman and Shipley strike you?

Hell, sign another longsnapper to create some competition.

Like I said, very pleased.

No. To be fair, I was disappointed with his failure to kill many kicks within the 20 after they messed with his mechanics, but I quickly remind myself how they mess with everyones mechanics, and would quickly do the same thing with anyone who replaced Huber.

Yeah, I'm good with this. In fact, I was satisfied before Nugent was signed.

Not satisfied with the return game? How do Pacman and Shipley strike you?

Actually, I was already thrilled with the return game and the depth. As a result Pacman and Shipley strike me as little more than the proverbial 3rd and 4th nipples...which I've never wanted for myself or for that matter anyone else.

Hell, sign another longsnapper to create some competition.

Even better, think of all of the UDFA's now competing for playing time at both safety positions.

Was fine with his holding hard to learn when Brat was throwing em all over the place...As for his kickng struggled at times but with how bad the offense was "shrug"

Agreed hopefully though these guys turn out better then they have been in the nfl

Well I don't think either Signing Nor Pick had to do with our return game Benard Scott had the highest avg of all kick returners last year and Quan did very well himself just adds depth as a bonus...

Well with the Hobsin Drooling all over the guys jock makes me think the guy actually may make the team though,IMO though Harris did a fine job and unless he goes St Louis on us should have a job.
