Weird thing is our horrible teams just pads Rourke’s stats because he always has long fields to work
Flintoff and might have to kick it higher and sacrifice some distance just so we don't end up giving a return TDswervynmerv wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:59 pmBC can't keep giving up these 25+ punt and kickoff returns

I've noticed the kickoffs are like line drives which doesn't give th coverage enough time to get downfield. I could be wrong thoughswervynmerv wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 8:50 pm
Is it the depth of the kick or inability to get downfield in time to stop a return from setting up?
Go Lions!

Did I miss another penalty on a kick return. How are we starting so deep again?

Unnecessary roughness following an 8 yard return. Half the distance to the goal line from the 22.swervynmerv wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 9:04 pmDid I miss another penalty on a kick return. How are we starting so deep again?

No, he is dressed. I like the use of Pipkin to save hits on Rourke’s body on short yardage.

Can you imagine how good the Leos would be if we had better special teams?Coast Mountain Lion wrote: ↑Fri Aug 19, 2022 9:06 pmUnnecessary roughness following an 8 yard return.

Now that was a better kick by Flintoft. Good hang time to allow guys to get downfield.
