Why catch the ball inside the 5 yard line ?

[skhoosier2]

Why did he catch that?  Good god doesn’t anyone coach special teams. I get we have Becker back there to catch but we are losing so much by not having a punt returner.

When is the last time we even tried to return a punt?

Since #8 was our returner. WTF Charlie! Catch the ball inside the 5. SMH!!

[psychobat3]

Hate to say it but right now we don’t look like a well-coached team (except for defensively)

[KingPG21]

Did we retain our special teams coach? Did he become an alcoholic in the offseason

[skhoosier2]

And the way we are punting the ball, Minnesota may win with field position and kick field goals all game if we can’t move the ball.

I like their chances. 

[pumpfake]

Woah. Inches from disaster 

[skhoosier2]

Missed a face mask there. 

[AZ Hoosier]

Fumble for the first down. That's one way to do it.

To be fair, a lot of us probably drank for 6 months straight after winning the natty too.

[hoosierdogg]

First down on a fumble recovery by Smith.  How about that?

 

[skhoosier2]

The offense looks like a disaster. 

[Home Jersey]

It almost makes me sick how many missed opportunities Becker and Marsh have had this season because of QB play. 

[AZ Hoosier]

Hoover throwing side-armed now?

I forget.

What do they call the position of the player that stands 40 yards behind the line of the scrimmage, watches the ball fly through the air and then watches it bounce around?  

 

EDIT 

“watches the ball fly through the air and then watches it bounce around BUT….ONLY CATCHES THE BALL IF IT IS A BAD DECISION TO CATCH IT”

[Home Jersey]

Wow holding brings back a helluva grab by Schott. Dang.

[BtownStrength]

I know we are 7-1 and ranked #4, but damn this team is so frustrating to watch. 

[Brass Cannon]

3rd and 15. Run up the middle.  My god do we think 7 points is enough

Would lose on a neutral field to most of the top 15. Despite this all-time defense
