Something isn't clicking to me, we are giving up waaaaaaay to much yardage every punt and kick off. If memory serves right we had the same issue last year. All special teams aces were playing tonight so I'm not sure what excuse we can use for this. Something needs to change soon or every team will start with great field position.

Robinson was out, so that didn't help (he's one of our best ST players).

For whatever reason you want to assign it was a disappointment.

We lost Killa Keith and he was always in someones face. That loss is more significant than anyone realizes. Ulbrich may be the special teams captain, but to me Lewis was the MVP of our special teams.

And a complete liability if you let him on the field for anything but STs.

Right. Hasn't signed yet, hasn't returned punts and kicks on a regular basis since high school and missed all of training camp.
If he does even sign, he'll be inactive for at least three weeks.

Crabtree can do all. In fact he is playing on tv right now!

Rossum is still a very solid return guy. I think the implement of a new special team rule regarding wedges will effect returns throughout the leauge.
