Running into the punter was not his fault. He didn't call for a block. Blocked punts were a result of a guy whiffing. Special teams weren't great but how do you know that's on the coach? He can't make Taubenheim make a kick over 40 yards or be able to hit a deep kickoff.

Question, when Punt Safe is called I know that obviously means that you don't line everybody up on the line and all go after the ball, some guys hang back to watch for the fake.  On Punt Safe are the main interior 3-4 guys still suppose to go pretty hard at the ball/punter because the others are watching for the fake, or are they suppose to go 3/4 speed and pull up short and not really even try.  And it's an honest question, because I don't really know for sure on that what is typical.

You still send 3-4 guys to pressure the punter.  I've never heard of pressuring at 3/4 speed.  What if the punter drops the ball and we have 4 guys giving 75% effort and the punter picks the ball up and punts it away??  That's why they still give 100%, in case of a bad snap we have guys there.  But, this is what they are told, "make sure you are 100% certain you are going to block the punt before you run the risk of touching the punter"  The player made a mistake.

Yup. Wilson's level of effort hurt him there but in general it is his greatest asset. Kid has a motor.

Perhaps this should be something that should be invented (but slightly different).  Go 100% but only go 3/4 of the way (unless you see the punter dropped the ball or something).  Call it Double Punt Safe or something so as to have no real possibility of somebody accidently running into the punter.  If I was coaching I think I would have a Double Punt Safe call in the playbook for certain situations :)

Maybe triple punt safe with a 10 yard bubble around the punter......

I know, it was a very frustrating play.

No. Parts of three schemas is why --> green helmet, grey jersey, white pants. 

The jersey should've been green or the pants grey. 

Exactly. Spoken like a true Wardrobe Designer. heh heh
