Was firing Al Everest a mistake?

Bad ST's
Losing M-Rob was a big factor, IMO.

Special teams looks about the same as they did last year when we had Everest. Actually the return numbers are probably a little better.
I remember the "reason" for M-Rob's release was he didn't offer anything on offense. Well, None of the other backs do either with this elementary game planning.

Good point. He would be more productive on ST then Westbrook is on Offense.

A big hit fumble, a block to string the KR. I know Leon Washington took a few back in Seattle this year. I wonder if MROB contirbuted?

Our kicking units and our coverage units were great under Everest. The only problem was returns, and that was because we didn't have any returners. Everest tried to compensate with a trick play, got burned, and was made a scapegoat publicly by Sing before he fired him at the end of the season. The result of Sing's folly is obvious!

Just another reason Sing needs to go.

I don't know about you but it seems like our special teams is worse than last year! We have not had a kickoff go for a TD in two years! It seems like every time Ginn goes back to punt he is surrounded and can't go anywhere. Are teams intentionally doing this? Or are we just that bad on ST?
Getting rid of Robinson was a mistake from the start. This team needed role players like that.

He's injured.
Dude, Sing fired our only legitimate OC since Norv. Man, what a series of blunders by this guy.
