Ward might be a net positive. Gives you more on the receiving end too should there be injuries.

Covey seems like a good kid, but never does much.

GWard coming in and doing well would be a good story for him.

Welp. Looks like Covey might not go LOL.

I wouldn’t say it’s a guarantee yet. They probably want to have that contingency plan. But, man… I don’t wanna see Greg Ward fair catching when there is room to run. There probably won’t be a lot of punts in this game, so I guess this isn’t really a big deal. Plus, it’s not like our returners usually have much room to do anything unless the punter just over kicks their coverage, but in the event that happens…  I’d rather have Covey than Ward.

Our punt return coverage never really gives him much of an opportunity either.

I guess. We are kinda screwed if it’s one of our top 2 receivers though. Nobody is replacing them. Ward can’t go play on the outside. He provides more value at receiver, but that’s not saying much.

Are you guys migrating from somewhere?

Yes, but I can't tell you from where. It's a secret.

Ya I would much rather have Covey out there. He has been pretty good recently and his ball security has been fine. Greg Ward would just be bland. Safe, but no real potential there.

Yep, but kick return is gonna be more important in this one. Scott has been doing well there, so hopefully he gets us at least a couple of good returns. 🤞🏻

[Wentz you dog you]

Literally just fair catch and don’t fumble… that’s ALL I ask for out of our special teams. Why I want Covey to be healthy

It’s very small yeah

Ward possesses the ball, that works for me.

If this is back and forth and we lose this on a Covey muff punt I’d want to punch a hole through the TV.

Covey hasn’t muffed anything since early in the season and I don’t think we lost it when he did either? I could be wrong.

Don’t think so either, but he’s a rookie. Looking across the roster at guys who could maybe get caught up in the moment, think it’s fine to say he’d make that shortlist because of that.

Not super worried but we are at the nitpicky nervous stage. Even getting to me and I’ve been fairly confident we’d win the whole time.

I'd sooner have Greg Ward returning punts at this point.

Yep.  Reminds me of the British dude in NL European Vacation.  Guy gets wrecked on every play.
