Bleedin Green Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 11 straight years. So weird... I wonder what could have possibly happened to the Jets special teams 11 years ago to start such a trend? It is one of those things that, as Jets fans, we have come to expect AT LEAST one (but really expect at least 2 or 3) kick return a TD a year, regardless of who the Jets have back there returning kicks. Definitely have gotten a little spoiled, especially when you consider a team like the Bucs only had their first ever kick return for a TD a few years ago.

pointman Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 McKnight doesn't even appear to be running all that fast. maybe its cause he is gassed after 25 yards. I think his speed may be overrated. Then again, dude has zero lateral movement so maybe it is true. OR maybe we can block on specials. In closing, cool.
