Quote:Fun stat! We havn't had a return TD since 2010.
Would love for that to change today!
So is this the end of Corey Grant?
Quote:Some say we'll see less returns than ever. I think the trend is less returns and less special team tds in the last 2 decades.

I'd say so far it seems like there are more returns, but I'm too lazy to look it up this early in the season. 5 yards is a lot to sacrifice by kicking the ball out of bounds when you know damn well your kicker can kick it high and in between the 1 and 5 yard line.
I just hope there doesn't come a time where someone gets hurt bad or worse on a kickoff where a coach was trying to avoid giving up that 5 yards. If the NFL really wants to cater to player safety, they'll get rid of the play all together and unfortunately a lot of players will lose their jobs because of it.
STILL THINK GREENE IS BETTER?
Greene has regressed. Even his first punt return he caught the ball and just stood there with it until he got tackled. Catch the ball and run forward..........novel concept I know.

Get the bleep upfield Greene!

Lee was one of the best Kick Returners to come out of college his year. The fact that he only started returning kicks for the jags last week is beyond me.
Hate to say I told you so. But I told you so.
Bump....... because I can
It took this coaching staff 3 years. 3 YEARS!!!!!
Treestone was so obnoxious in this, and wrong as can be
I thought he may have hurt himself on the return yesterday.
No to him returning kicks
