incognito_man Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 4 minutes ago, SSG said: Big screw ups? Not really but he's a guy who's decision making has always been questionable. He fair caught 10 punts inside the 10 in his last year as our full time punt returner. So his occasional 15+ yard punt return was nice, his mistakes frequently costed us field position. If he was allowed to fair catch 10 punts inside the 10, this means he was coached to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a physically talented QB who's struggled some we could try and groom into trade bait. It seems like this reminds me of something..or someone who is on the Raiders roster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No coaxing a past drug user/abuser with a whiff of weed! @Norm is cured. Let him stay that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole "10 yard line" thing went away years ago when the Aussie punting style came to the NFL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I just don’t like this move with ESB on IR. Davis, contrary to popular belief, was a damn sure punt fielder and he’d shown strong ability in big returns. I know I’m in the minority, but I liked Davis and I hope he does well in Oakland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boratt Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 High 6th probably. Ammo. Might be our next Mason Crosby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which might explain why that last staff is unemployed and why the new staff had no issues shipping him off. I've never heard such a thing as a coach wanting a fair catch inside the 10. I once heard Dante Hall say he was coached to have his heals on the 10 and he knew the coaches would be upset if he went backwards to field the ball.

Gotta disagree here. I agree he was shifty, fast, elusive and produced handful of big returns. But he had a terrible time making the decision to fair catch or not and judging where the ball was going to come down at the last minute. He was blasted many times at the catch including last Sunday. Occasionally gave up the ball because of it. The risk wasn’t worth the reward and that’s why he got showcased into a 6th round pick. Whatever minimal value he’d have ever provided as a WR will be easily replaced. Edited September 19, 2019 by ccecilnosebleed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacman5252 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I was kind of hoping we'd see TD play out this year in this offense. I felt he could have a Taylor Gabriel like role as a gadget player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
