Special Teams receive an F? C'mon man, They just BLOCKED A PUNT AND AN AUTOMATIC FIELDGOAL!!!
Yeah I get it, we haven't returned well but Cundiff is making his kicks, we are pinning the other team deep on punts, we are covering punts and kickoffs really well, we've blocked a few and nobody is dogging it out there. Anything less than a C+ is really an injustice.
I highly disagree with a C+ grade. the Cleveland Browns special teams is anything but average let alone slightly above average. yes the kickers are doing just fine. the kickoff return team is one of the worst in the league and the punt returning is the WORST by far. returning punts in the fourth quarter alone has either cost us games or chances to win games. its pretty bad when you'll take a fair catch on a punt every time for the rest of the year. I'm a compromise with you and get the special teams D/D+ because of one game against a really bad team but this special teams group is far from on average NFL special teams.
and anyways special teams is like factoring art and gym class into your final GPA in school.the brown special teams is obviously not going to win any games but it sure does look like it can cost us a few.
