For the most part the Special Teams is fine. I would be happy with no runbacks on kickoffs, as there seems to be more injuries on those plays, but they don't always kick it into the end zone so I realize sometimes you have to run it back. The opposing teams just always seem to have at least one midfield runback per game and we have seemed to have lost that edge in our returns.

On Stanley Morgan's penalty, do they give them a specific number of yards to get back on the field? It seems like if the opposing players are there to keep you from returning to the field of play by continually blocking you out of bounds, that should be unsportsmanlike conduct.

Yeah, that penalty was utter BS and both he and Simmons were shown complaining.

If you watch the replay, he was literally OB for less than 1.5 seconds.

If the guy runs 20 yards OB before coming back in then it's one thing, but I don't even think he ran 5 yards OB, before coming back in.

BS.

Kicking was off for everyone yesterday.

Perhaps the wind?
