Offense has made mistakes and the defense has had its struggles recently.

But make no doubt about it - this teams kryptonite is special teams.

Sean needs to wake up on this one. Sure he thinks it matters, but he has really hurt us this year.

Arguable we would be undefeated with a solid special teams.

I think they are aware but have no answers. Gotta ride the horse that brought you, or something like that. What's up with Evans ? Mevis needed to miss eventually. Now he should be good for awhile? Lol.
 
I know Mevis was perfect before the crucial miss. But I still did not know what kind of kicker we had. All his kicks were in situations where a miss doesn't hurt them. Basically no pressure. When he got his first taste of a pressure packed kick that can determine the outcome, he failed. So now we're back to having a kicker we can't trust when the game is on the line. That could cost us in the playoffs. The coverage team? Well, I think we already knew it was a problem. I guess the good news is, if we lose a playoff game due to special teams failures, at least there's a better chance Stafford won't retire after the season.

Not sure about this. Kicked looked great coming off his foot. Unlike Karty's sad attempts where everyone made excuses, this kick from Mevis actually DID appear to get carried by the wind. Broadcast noted the same I believe. I still have trust in him.
