San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 The Dallas Morning News usually comes out with their rankings of NFL special teams units in late January, early February. I'd be curious to see how the Bills and the Titans were this year. Last year he had the Titans as the league's 5th ranked unit and the Bills at #11. DeHaven has come under a lot of criticism here. I'd like to see what an in-depth analysis shows. Here's last year's rankings: http://www.dallasnews.com/newsletters/nfl/20120123-gosselin-49ers-patriots-prove-what-a-focus-on-special-teams-can-do2.ece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 edit: When I say "in-depth," Gosselin ranks the special teams in 22 different categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Did you laugh when the Bills re-hired him? No, not the rehire. I did laugh when we fired him as the scapegoat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I think DeHaven could be a lot better with a young HC that would push him to be more aggressive. I assume that Chan always directed him to stick with the safe and higher percentage stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Titans fans think about as highly about their franchise as Bills fans do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 DeHaven is a solid ST coach. The Music City miracle tarnishes an otherwise excellent career. Ok, maybe kicking it straight away was a better call in hindsight but every player on that kick coverage team will tell you that Dehaven tells them to "stay in their lanes" on EVERY SINGLE kickoff. Had he called a normal kickoff and the Titans returned it he would have been questioned for not squibbing the kick. The players and the refs blew that play.

nobody Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I think this is what was needed for the Bills to finally break the curse. They will now reach the playoffs once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 If his ST squad is still ranked in the top 5 for the league, I would be glad to hire him on. Nothing salves a bitter loss from years ago like winning in the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cale Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Lowry will probably end up in St Louis with Fisher. Short drive from here. Gray is a fraud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyVanMiller Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Dehaven had the best quote ever about that play when he was asked if, in hindsight, he regretted not kicking it out of bounds. "I wish we'd of done just about anything other than what we did." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
