Was just wondering.. When Dan brough in Shanny and Bruce to run the show, why did they not also bring in new special teams coaches?? Reason I ask is obvious.. It doesnt seem to matter who we have doing the punting or kicking on our team, there are always issues.. Season after season we struggle with long snaps, holds, kicks, and punts.. We also seem to always have a couple kicks and punts blocked every year..
It was noted today how Shuisham has been nearly perfect since going to Pittsburgh.. But he struggled here? I dont understand why we cant do the basics of snap, hold, kick/punt, no matter who's doing the kicking?? I give the ST's credit on their coverage, that seems to be very good, but the kicking portion of our ST's has been flawed for as long as I can remember.. Maybe it has as much to do with the way they prepare and practice, as it does with who's actually doing the on field functions? Does anyone know if the special teams (kick/punt) coaches are the same as years past??
