Yes, if a Dominique Dorsey or the like is available, we have to go after him. However unless our Return BLOCKING isnt drastically improved, dont expect a repeat of his previous seasons from the new guy.
Weve had a lot of bodies in the return position over the past 2-3 seasons, and no one has survived; were STILL looking.
To my mind the problem goes deeper than on-field performance...its the COACHING thats questionable.
Someones doing something wrong...either these guys dont get the message (ALL 12?), or someone`s sending the WRONG message... and has for a couple of seasons.
Something to think about.
Yes, please. This is the one area we can never seem to get right. Other teams pull returners out of thin air. McDaniel is ok but he’s not going to break many for TDs. We need someone who scares the crap out of punt teams.
Tre is on the small side,so maybe he went down easily?? I don't know what you saw.
But slow?really? 2 me - his biggest quality is his quickness,followed by his speed - maybe i'm wrong.
Yeah, Cobb is the logical guy 2 return when looking at his carreer history.
But what is the story on Keith? Is he actually coming back?
Cuz you can't really ask Cobb 2 return and be the main half-back..
unless they are some personel changes - which i'd imagine their will be..
I'm Alone in thinking Tre could be a decent kick returner???
Tre is definately quick but he doesn’t have the more important(for returns) straight line speed. I dont think he’d really break away and ever get a return touchdown without an amazing blocking job all the way down the field with him, and if we had that there 'd still be better players for it.
Your not alone in thinking he could be good, cause he could get a healthy avg like a Marquay Mcdaniel or Stephan Fisher from 2002, but I wouldn’t want to settle for that.
Decent, yes. Not outstanding. Kick returners are either great or not good enough, in my opinion. We’ve had decent returners for a couple seasons but I don’t remember the last return for a touchdown. Anyone remember?
I remember JoJo Walker pointing up to the crowd as he returned a punt for a TD wearing a gold jersey in the last game of the season. I just don’t remember which season (2007 or 2008). Did they even have the golds in 2007?
The clip was used in TSN’s opening last season.
Interesting to see that LeFors was actually not too bad against us that game, and that WPG is considering bringing in Jyles, the other QB that played us that game, but I digress.
