Who Will Be The New Special Teams Captain?!?

rezburna · 09-02-2013, 11:32 AM

Bush or Humber. I went with Bush because I think Humber might become a starter.

I'm gonna say Vaccaro unless he starts...

I think it's time to fire Greg McMahon as well as Joe Vitt. I'm tired of piss-poor special teams and linebacker play.

Totally agree. I like Vitts fire, but its obviouslly not translating onto the field. If the defense sucks balls again this year we need to clean house. I will give them that they have not had much to work with but it is a coaches job to coach players up.

What part of "Stay in your lanes" is confusing to players?

Well there are guys fairly equal in talent wanting to make a big splash to get into the scrimmage units running full speed at you as well...

But you make a good point; however, a fair question is 'are the schemes in technique effectively coached?!?'

Gary Gibbs, correction, Greg McMahon's units have seen changes in talent and we're still allowing breakdowns...

We should nominate a B&G captain for this season.

How about Choupique?

I dunno why we kept Roby on as long as we did and 2 years ago we let Chris Reis go.

That is something that never made sense seeing I think we got more out of Reis also being a Safety than Roby being a WR.

I was actually calling for Roby last year or the year before (dont remember) because he was loosing his grip as a decent KR where I saw too much of his returns where he runs slap dab into his own guys and not hitting lanes.

I Goofed - Left Thomas Morstead off the list...

and after his season last season, he'll probably be named ST Captain...
