other than Carpenter, we suck. We've got so many returners and we can't do anything. We cover well at home but suck away. We need a new ST coach.

Maybe the ST coach should have stuck out his leg and tripped the Cincinatti returner after the Bungals tackled our gunner from behind.

Originally posted by justasportsfan View Postlook up his resume. Just like Jauron , his unit has regressed the longer he stayed as ST coach. The only thing he has going for him is that he's "friends" with Marrone.

The official source for NFL news, video highlights, fantasy football, game-day coverage, schedules, stats, scores and more.
The Lions also finished last in net punt average and 31st on kickoff returns.
Crossman came under fire in 2012 after the Lions gave up a kickoff and punt return for a touchdown in back-to-back games early in the season.
According to STATS, LLC, the Lions became the first NFL team to give up a kickoff and punt returns for TDs in successive weeks since they first began keeping such data in 1940.

It's the coaches job to get the players to execute. McKelvin was able to execute under Dehaven. Penalties are on the coaches too.

Somehow, I don't think Doug Marrone will take your call.
BTW, McKelvin decides if he is going to return a punt or if he is going to fair catch and I'm sure the ST coach caused Moorman to drop a perfect snap.
Also, even though we throttled a division opponent yesterday, isn't it just like some Bills' Fans to find something to ***** about and find a coach they think needs to be fired.

I have been accused of being a homer a lot here. Doubt I am one of the guys that should be accused of looking for things to ***** about.
