If so, Does he get fired? Isn't it something like 7 fumbles on special teams this season? I'd love to hire Bobby April from the Buffalo Bills if we could get him.

I dont think so
when we had rossum we really didnt have this many fumbles.
Then you have idiot players who should know better than to try and catch a punt in traffic.

Don't know. But I don't think so. Our coverage units have been very good. One good play by Percy Harvin early in the year, but it happens sometimes. Other than that, we've been fine.

Of course not. It's not his fault we don't have a returner. Our punt and kickoff coverage has always been one of the best, and has a knack on making our second and third stringers into really good special teamers.

I don't think so, special teams wasn't bad last year unless I'm mistaken. We just need a more able return guy, and that should be a priority this offseason.

Nah...he's one of the best in the league. What we do need is some real returners...I still say the answer is to trade for Josh Cribbs. Browns need players/draft picks, so why not make a deal.

I know bruh, but you know that stuff like this gets blown out of proportion by the likes of MadDog, ZRF etc.
Notice I didn't say , which I just as easily could have done. And it was more a comment to those whom said yes to the poll.
Oh yeah and the fumble on the Reverse was Sing's idea not Everest's, so if AE goes then Sing should shoulder some of the responsibility as well. And if McCloughan fired AE then he should fire himself for making such a stupid mistake. I get that we had to stick to the 53 man roster, but cutting Spurlock would have been the way to go at that point.

Al Everest is a great ST coach. weve had above average ST play for years under him.
dont fire the guy because Arnaz Battle and Brandon Jones are Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber out there as returners.

was wondering the same thing, the looks i see from singletary remind me of the looks he gave martz at times last year.
He`s around Sing alot on the sidelines too, I think he stays...

cosigned he's a good coach. We just don't have a returner and our coverage skills have suffered because we lost some of our past ST players, like Keith Lewis and Ulbrich. Both of those guys used to be money on special teams. Now a lot of guys who haven't played there before are getting PT trying to cover and a lot of young players are out there, like Coffee.

He's the best coordinator on the team, and probably the best special teams coach the niners ever had.
