How do you explain the other games this year when the ST’s was terrible then?

Danny Crossman has been horrible for years. Even when on Lions. Last year was horrible with soo many recovered onside kicks. It was horrible and funny same time lol. 

 

So true... to his credit he was able to put together a few good years with the Bills

ST have always been awful under Danny C

 

Not true actually. Marrone's 2nd year and last year our Special Teams were pretty good. Both years where we had 6 or 7 roster spots (aside from the 3 specialists) designated to ST players. The pattern with Crossman is if you give him a lot of specialist STers he produces decent special teams. But when the team is using those spots at the bottom of the roster to churn and try and find players who can contribute on O or D (as we are this year) then the STs suck as a result. 

 

Bascially he is a bad coach who it takes a lot of specialist talent to cover for.

Holmes had a total of 5 special teams tackles all year.

Taiwan Jones had that many in like 5 games before he was hurt.

He did a good job as a gunner in knowing where his support was coming from and directing returners into it. He wasn't a star gunner but he was a solid one. The gunner today was taking terrible angles all game.
