Special Teams

It's my impression that Chicago's is more explosive and dangerous. Ours is more 'conservative' and is more about just giving the offense the chance to work in a comfortable space.
what I cannot for the life of me understand is the insane amount of holding penalties and 'block in the back' flags that have been present in the NFL. What the hell do these 'special teams' coaches actually supervise, anyway? I know they can't think for the players themselves, but everytime I see anyone run one for a score, I'm whispering "flag on the field" just before the graphic appears on TV. :P
