Bucs special teams not so special
The Bucs have had some problems on special teams, as they have already gave up a TD on a punt return that cost them a game. The Bucs are allowing 12.9 yards per punt return and that is not good at all. What’s weird about the Bucs is that they have problems on punt coverage but only allow 19.4 yards per kick-off return which is outstanding.
Matt Bryant is having his problems as he has converted only 2 of 4 FGs and all 6 XPTs. Punter Josh Bidwell is doing ok. Bidwell is averaging 43.7 yards per punt for a net gain of 35.3 yards. Bidwell has done a great job on punt placement, as 33.3% of his punts are downed inside the 20 yard line.
Mark Jones has done a decent job returning punts as he is averaging 8.4 yards per return. Michael Pittman is averaging 21.6 yards per kick-off return.
