Our punting and kickoffs

[SMU 86]

Needs to improve IMO.

[SMU89]

You are correct, sir.

[RE Tycoon]

Sada needs to go. If the ball gets to the 10 yard line that's a victory. Do we not have a kicker who can get a touch back? Is Syzmanski (sp?) still hurt?

Thats for sure. Symanski made a 60 yarder in Lubbuck and Sada can't even kick the ball 40 yards with no wind off a tee. Why is he kicking off?

Time to give Fields or butler a chance to field punts, this will cost us a game one day, we have been lucky so far.

Every time i hear June say Darius is a game changer I instantly think he will lose us a game

[Big Hoss]

Sada does not have a strong enough leg, and Johnson seems lost as a punt returner. So the answer, of course, is to keep rolling them both out there?

Sada also does not know how to cover kickoffs. He is supposed to be the safety valve, and yet on more than one kickoff tonight he was too far down on coverage and got passed up. Thankfully, we had fast guys who were able to catch the returner from behind.

Johnson also needs to be introduced to the fair catch.

Sada is only kicking do to Symanski being injured.

[Northwatcher]

There is no question it will cost us a game if this does not improve. You can't let good teams return kickoffs to the 40 each time and you certainly can't fumble punt returns inside the 10 on a regular basis.

i wouldnt say the depth of our kick offs are the only problem, our coverage has been terrible as well

[Big Hoss]

Can someone send JJ a memo that we'd like to see Butler or Fields back there from now on? Hell, put anyone out there that can field it cleanly, and just tell them to call for a fair catch every time. That would be better than the crap we are putting out there now.

[gostangs]

The poor coverage is due to the kicks being short and bad.

Should also add in there that our blockers need to gain some field awareness so as to not run into Darius as he's trying to catch the punt

Matt has shanked his share of punts this year as well.

not when you have players staying in their lanes, fields blew his contain bad after our last touchdown (he also made a great play on another special teams play)

We miss this guy very much!
