Hadn't thought about it much, but our special teams definitely have been reliable. Add in 2? punt returns for touchdowns this year and it has the makings of a very good special teams crew. Good luck Rob!

We had two TD's on Punt returns and the previous staff just had the guy fair catch the ball the whole season.
