Where else would you recommend they be stashed?
IMO the long snapper shouldn't have even been sent out there. It should have been a REAL lineman. I can understand sending the punter out there so that the opponent thinks you're punting and sends in their return package. I understand that the play was going in the other direction...but we basically had two Andy Lee's out there to seal off the back side. - I'm sick of the stupidness.
As far as the stats go, we had a good punt returner in Benjamin...until he got hurt and we had to put in 'what's his name' (the old DB that Pettine loved so much - he was a pretty good DB though) to just catch the ball...because everyone else was fumbling the damned thing.

Bottom line..Hue called the fake. Tabor coaches the execution of play. Players did not execute the play..Welcome to Browns Football

Welcome to Browns football? I've been watching Browns football since the Jim Brown days. This isn't Browns football. 4th and 5, early in the game, on your own side of the field? Punt the thing. (Hue's fault for making the call)
The players didn't execute because we had a long snapper and a punter expected to block real football players. Long snappers and punters aren't real football players.

Hey Orion, you're right. This is NOT Cleveland Browns football! Even when they had bad records with Carson and Skorich, they were never an easy out. They play like creampuffs compared to every Browns team pre 99. My loyalty is there and I pray they change. It hurts me to say they suck but they do. This board is better than the team and now I start wishing that Jimmy gets the clap from Dee

11. I still don't understand why the Browns had 33-year-old Tramon Williams returning punts. He returned one in 2015 with the Browns. Before that, he had not returned punts since 2010. He looked very uncomfortable trying to catch the ball in the wind. Makes no sense to have him in that role again.
12. Special teams coach Chris Tabor expressed confidence in Williams: "Tramon catches the ball cleanly." He talked about Williams doing that in Green Bay, which was true. But it also was six years ago.
13. Tabor talked about rookie Corey Coleman as a punt returner. That's intriguing. Jackson tried to talk around the issue of the Browns having only 10 men on the field during the botched punt. He was protecting Tabor, who quickly said the Browns were a man short "and that's on me. That's coaching."
Of course he was protecting Tabor! Everyone does! He's the Wernher von Braun of special teams coaches.
