FIELD POSITION
I have been trying to find the statistic of our field position on kickoffs versus our opponents'. I was guessing (conservatively) it had to be somewhere in the range of our own 25 vs the opponent at their own 35.
There are two things I don't understand about this; a) How is there not an abundance of 'kickoff specialists' out there that can consistently kick the ball out of the end zone? Are you telling me there aren't at least 50 athletes between college football and soccer players throughout the world that would love to make $250k a year to play in the NFL just to kick the ball as far as they can? b) Why isn't Hixon returning kicks ? I understand you don't want your new primary receiver to get hurt, but don't you think the reward is greater than the risk? When you have a difference maker on special teams I think you have to use it to your advantage at all costs.
I hate to focus on any negative aspects of my beloved G-Men, but I would hate to see something like this get in the way of a repeat title.
