Special Team

Another fail to report caused another big play. The way I see it, it is the responsibility of the ST coach. Sure, the player needs to remember and take part of the blame. But after what happened not long ago, should the coach reminds the players before the trick play? I know I would. And if you don't want to do it so obvious, you can tell the st captain, and the captain reminds the players. There are many ways to do it.

I am not saying we should fire the coach. He has done a decent job. I am saying Flo should give him a good talk-to.

They need to send him to offseason seminar to learn the rules. The guy is obviously trying hard and doing some good stuff, but we cannot have coaches who do not know the rules. So Grier needs to book him for one or two of these seminars.

And make sure he's not going to LV, and check his office for dope.

If Grugiey reports in as eligible it tips the Pats off on the fake punt! :D :D :D

By no means am I an expert on rules, but I don’t understand why you would need to report on a punt. If that is the case, why would guys not report every single time? It seems kind of odd that you see fake punts work when you have to essentially tell the other team what you plan to do.

Because the other fakes are thrown to eligible receivers who don't have to report. You have to report if you're number isn't a qb, rb, or wr eligible number. If you don't want a guy reporting make sure you plan to throw to a guy who doesn't need to report.

So RB/FBs in the 40s would not have to report...As a curiosity how would that impact Van Ginkel (43)? It just seems odd that we draw up these great ST plays only to not know the rules 3 weeks in a row.

Interesting question, my gut says he doesn't have to. Where they line up too is also a factor. Im not sure where our receiver even came from today.

Yet by not reporting in as a WR the Dolphins were penalized because that is the rule. Perhaps instead of using a player who has to report as a receiver and tip off the opposing team, they should put in actual receivers who would not have to report the fact they are receivers on a play they intend to pass the ball instead of kicking it.

I hear ya!

 

[Viper Prime]

Or they could just have the non receivers report as eligible every punt..

 

[TKAllDay]

We are missing something here for sure

 

[Dolph N.Fan]

It's the same concept. If you throw a wideout on a punt they are immediately going to notice that.
