I'm a homer, but I said we should have claimed Brandon Tate when the Pats released him. He put up 186 return yards including a PR TD. I know STs is more than just the returner, but some guys just have that innate ability to make people miss, and I don't think Edwards or Pilares (Edwards more so) has that "it" factor.

we need more than a returner on special teams. screw edwards and pilares and their potential. get someone who knows how to do the job and then get us some guys that knows how to block and then get us a STs coach that doesn't suck.

and then we can deal with having horrible coverage guys.

STs needs a massive overhaul in the offseason. it's been neglected for way too long.

no holes. can't run if there are no holes.

part of the problem is that we've been so decimated with injuries that guys who were once backups/special teamers have been bumped into starting spots and aren't playing on ST anymore...

once we get depth i expect a massive improvement.

Yes ST coach indeed. How hard is too stay in your lanes until you are 15 yards from the returner, then converge on him. Also if you persue run at angles towards the sidelines to cut off the runner. I played special teams in high school......fundamentals...we never had these problems. Of course proper tackling look at the stomach not the feet!

I agree, Tate would be an upgrade for us as a KR/PR and I also think that Goodson is better than both Edwards and Pilares.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
