I'd love to see Moss return punts but, I don't think we can risk injuring our #1 receiver.

ARE has been doing this for years now, he's terrible, and looks like he doesn't even want to be back there - so don't make him, find someone else.

thomas looked bad in pre season... thrash or betts maybe?

i totally agree.

RobH4413 · 09-14-2008, 08:00 PM

Agreed.

James Thrash or Rock...

Just run for 10-15 yards... don't dance... and DO NOT fumble. That's it. Punt return issues solved.

I think we should send 11 men after the block one every punt. PR problem solved.

Not a bad idea. Besides, they can only block 10 of them even if everyone makes a solid block.

Our punt block team should be:

Taylor
Fletcher
Carter
McIntosh
Sellers
Landry
Horton
F. Davis
Cartwright
Thrash
L. Alexander

Meanwhile, the punter lofts an easy pass to the gunner for a touchdown. Of coarse I recognized the sarcasm.

MisterT · 09-14-2008, 08:02 PM

We need someone to take the ball North and South, all this dancing back there reminds me of Neon when he sucked returning punts for us. I say give Rock a try (and if not him then Thrash). At least Rock will take the ball upfield. Intriguing thought about Tryon, with his speed he could be interesting, but has he ever done it before?

724Skinsfan · 09-14-2008, 08:15 PM

I vote for Devin Hester. If not him, then whoever is our quickest guy other than Santana Moss (Tryon?).

Too bad he's out with a rib injury.

And not in our team.

redsk1 · 09-14-2008, 08:15 PM

I vote Rock. ARE is bad out there.

doughtydoubter · 09-14-2008, 08:37 PM

i say put a rook, or someone with speed..maybe tryon? because are is too valuable as our reciever to risk him hurt while the rookis develop

Paintrain · 09-14-2008, 08:37 PM

He's pretty bad back there. He spins around like a drunk on a unicycle. I'm ready to see if Thomas or Rock can do better back there.

GTripp0012 · 09-14-2008, 09:01 PM

Yeah, his days as an elite punt returner are clearly behind him.

FRPLG · 09-14-2008, 09:13 PM

Why not Moss? I don't care as long as the guy just runs forward more than sideways.
