I wish we would stop saying 'it's preseason, no big deal' like we can't/won't take these same things into the regular season lol yes we install game plans Yada Yada, but execution doesn't simply improve just cuz its real games. Each play should be ran as if it was sb or bust, or atleast that's what the mentality should be I feel Flying Falcon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting this is the first year hes gone and we cant catch punts. Muffed catches is not a coaching issue. That’s an individual effort. Football 101. Pass, catch, punt, kick, tackle. fundamental football. You can’t coach a guy to catch. He had room to run so the coaching part worked. The Individual effort was muffed.

Fiddlin John's Ghost Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 To sit there and say the special teams ain't already better is crazy. Yeah...muff punts, but the coverage teams have been much improved, and they pulled off a fake punt, something they aint done in awhile. Armstrong was good early on, but he got lazy in his coaching and unit discipline. How many times did we blow a coverage for a big gain, blow kick protection, or get through a return without being called for holding? That is over. The new coach was an apache pilot with mucho combat flight ops in the books. Rotary wing pilots are ummmm intense, disciplined, and unpredictable...perfect for special teams.

FalconFan13 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 To me outside of the muffed punts which is 100% on the player doing it. The ST's has been alot better to me coverage wise i see out guys getting down there alot and stopping people before the 25 quite often.
