Are we going to have a defensive touchdown this year?

I would like to see a Special Teams TD... How long has it been since that happened?

I'm pretty sure we haven't had a KR for a TD since Rod Smart did it last against New Orleans.

I'm almost positive we haven't had a regular season PR for a TD since Week 17 of our SB season.

Smitty versus the Giants.

It's time.

Smitty ran one back against the Seahawks in the playoffs after that... The year we had ZERO running backs and they quadruple covered Smitty the whole game.

Smitty begged Foxy to let him return a punt, that he promptly ran back for a TD. :-)

gotta have a defense to score a defensive TD. not going to score one watching the guy with the ball's back as he runs past us

depends on the position. interceptions are often used to suggest a defensive back is elite, but often it simply means he's getting thrown on a lot. sometimes all it takes is an otherwise average corner getting an underthrown ball in his lap when he got beat in coverage on the outside, and he's taking it to the house.

...still that's not the sort of thing you can really predict. on offense the same guy has the ball at the beginning of each snap, and you can use stats to predict where the ball will go, and how many times it will go there. on defense you can only begin to guess who'll be one of the few guys in any given game to get his hands on a ball.

Goodson had a KR TD called back for holding last season. Against the Seahawks I think.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Samppson · Posted

      I know teams have been selling out to stop the run, but Ricos kind of fallen off a cliff.. not sure if hes hurt or just worn down but even when theres a hole he doesnt look anything like he did those few weeks prior.

      89 on The Pivot

      nah, that's basically saying people can't call a spade a spade.  Which is crazy.  89 is not a good dude.  He might have done a couple good things but it will never erase what he has proven to be in front of the world.  I tell my kid all the time not to view celebrity athletes as anything but people that play a sport well.  Lot of garbage humans play on Sunday.   And you have no clue who the good guys actually are.  PR in today's world is also powerful.  There was a window when Deshawn Watson checked every good guy box that could ever existed from the public's perspective.

      Some folks say it's because teams are playing more shell defenses preventing more longer passes.  The analytics folks would rather you pass for 7 years every down.  As you state, the crop of QBs is mixed as far as quality. I think when you put it all together, it's a recipe for less passing yards.
