Donnie Jones has been the lone bright spot on our ST unit. Him and maybe Braman.

Wow, i'm actually responding to a Norg post.

As usual, you'd be completely wrong.

Graham has such a weak leg. Lowest% of touchbacks in the league. Texans hovering around the the bottom of the league in ST. Joe's gotta go.

I'm ready to see the Texans try something else. Joe is not getting it done. Our special teams are atrocious. I'm watching the Steelers right now and their return game is unbelievably amazing compared to the steaming turd we run out there every week.

I'm really dreading next week. The Bears have one of the best special teams in the league, and we're the worst. It's not going to be a good matchup. We can't make any mistakes next week.

Ugh... We give the 7th most return yards out of all teams... and the bills give up the most return yards out of any team... I thought Martin looked good today but if that was against the worst punting team. We still need alot of help

Total punting yards is not indicative of a succesful punter. Its just a punter who punts a lot.

We are 14th in average punt distance and 19th in average net

Donnie Jones is 13th in the league in average, better than "below average" as the person I corrected was saying. Our freaking punting game is the last part of ST I'm concerned with.

Actual punting isnt the problem , Jones has been solid.


The issue is coverage on both punt and kickoff returns.


Marciano .... may or may not be the problem , Im at a loss as to why they have been so poor in coverage.


Sure would be nice to have a kicker who could kick off a little longer .... Kickoff's have been abyssmal in distance and coverage. League Worst I believe.

Funny Trindon Holliday looked good.. but yet on another teams KR team.. he ran one back for 105 yard or so touchdown this weekend.

Sorry Joe time for a change, we need better special teams play.

[GP]

He won't fire him. He knows ST will never cost his team ENOUGH to warrant it.

Kubiak will never fire Joe Marciano. So deal with it now, rather than later.

[Scooter]

mcmannis blocked a punt yesterday for the bears, while holiday returns a kickoff 105 yards for touchdown. the texans on the other hand were a series of procedure errors and marginal execution. the problem isnt talent.

Yeah, but goofed on another return shortly thereafter. He watched a ball bounce inside their 5 without doing anything. It took someone else to run over there and fall on the ball while Holliday still watched.

Then again, Martin pulled a boner too yesterday.

Tricycle also looked pretty damn bad on several occasions playing for that same team he ran one back for.


With him , its much like Jacoby Jones - Feast or Famine.


Joe still needs to go. He's got 4-5 well above average ST players and isnt getting anything out of the rest of his charges. If not for Ball , Keo , Demps and Braman .... They might just have to kick them all out of bounds.

Extra credit should go to Ball and Braman .... they have been in beast mode on ST all season.

There was a guy that called into the post-game show on 610 yesterday. He brought up that he wanted Kubiak fired because he cut Trindon and Trindon had a return for a TD. I was like WTF? The guy said that it showed that Kubiak had no eye for talent and didn't know how to utilize people.

Trindon was given EVERY chance to excel on this team. He did great when the games didn't count, but he crumbled under pressure when it mattered most. I was happy to see him go and I still stand by that.

Now, my main gripe is our weak a$$ kick offs and field goals. I'm not happy with the leg strength at all. Yes, we haven't missed many field goals, but I feel we're screwed if we need a 52 yarder to win the game. On kick offs, I have no idea why we have someone who repeatedly doesn't kick it into the end zone. Is that by design or is his leg just that weak? Someone let me know because it's driving me crazy.

Never say never. In spite of Kubiak's image, I think he can be cold blooded when required. I do not see Marciano on staff in 2013.
