Church is fine to have on the team. He just stinks downfield and is not a really playmaking FS at all.

I doubt they can replace both Wilcox and Church in one offseason with the other stuff that needs to be worked on too, but I definitely wotnt be surprised if one of them is a backup next year.

I saw Jeff Heath on a lot of critical plays against Aaron Rodgers today. A scenario where Church is that third safety is a lot less terrifying.

I guess it was confirmed McClain had another concussion and that's why he never returned today.

Does anyone know how many this is now? Its gotta be 3 or so right?

Bissacia. Our special teams were fucking terrible this year. Did we even have ONE kickoff/punt return for a TD? And why the fuck did we keep putting Harris back there when he made it past the 20 - yard-line like what, twice? Aside from Dan Bailey (whom I'm not worried about despite missing a few FG's), special teams didn't do shit to help our team. At times they even hindered it.

Yeah I'm over Dwayne Harris.

Thought he was coming on as a punt returner but he brought nothing.

Any coach with half a brain would see that Harris isn't getting it done, and try someone else like Randle or Dunbar. And speaking of coaching, I really don't see Garrett replicating this kind of success next season. When have we put together 2 good seasons? The 90's?

we play a first place schedule next year and it's unfathomable that we sweep the East again, not to mention win every road game, so yeah, expect a step backwards.

All of these defensive players that have borderline speed for their positions. Players like Church (I am just using him as an example), are killing the defense. I am a firm believer in the Jimmy Johnson 4-3 defense that relied on speed, speed and more speed. Every single draft pick needs above average speed for his position. Lack of speed is a big problem for the defense, but the offense could benefit from an infusion of speed too.

Speed is what we need.
