Damn, Kraft. Pro Bowler in the making. Great answer by the offense.

Tight window and great catch too. 

[yourout]

That did not look good. 

The way he was holding his arms. 

Hopefully just a stringer.

Agreed. Worried about him seeing that.  Seeing him walk off like that feels good.  Might be out the rest if the game with a concussion after seeing him get hit in the head like that though.

[yourout]

Catch the damn punt 

That's on Nixon.

[homer]

that's on Nixon

[HarryDoyle]

My God, just fair catch it or get the hell out of the way!

[duewizard]

Why wouldn't you fair catch that???

[adambr2]

What in God's name was Nixon doing? For crying out loud dude make the fair catch and be done with it. He could not have played that worse and it had disaster written all over it as soon as he let it bounce. 

[MrTPlush]

That was cringe Nixon.

[adambr2]

Nixon just gifted them 7 points. Thanks, man.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This team is so damn sloppy with the ball. It's my biggest issue with this season. Not the pass rush or the kicker or whatever. They give the ball away way too much. 

[HarryDoyle]

That wasn't on Ballentine, Nantz.

[OldHeidelberg]

I thought it was Reed but what the hell was Nixon thinking? Field the damn punt, 😡

Crap like that will cost you wins

Just put Jayden Reed back there and stick with him. You gotta fair catch that. You can’t be giving the ball away against good teams.

Reporters next time they're about to ask why Jayden Reed returns punts: *crickets*

[SeaBass]

Special teams just refuses to stop being the reason winning is harder than it needs to be.

[MrTPlush]

The only thing in Nixon’s defense is the two Packers defenders were barreling exactly through the path where he was going to need to catch that. Had he tried to catch it, I’m not sure the result is any prettier as I think the two blockers were going to plow him over, probably before he even got the ball to touch his hands.

Id have to watch it again, but honestly, Nixon might have been hosed no matter what he did.

[adambr2]

Great job by Wilson. Biggest 4 yard gain of the day.

Where is this genius special teams coach that we supposedly have?

[adambr2]

I'm glad they snapped that. I'm not 100% that the previous play wasn't a lateral or backwards pass. 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

How would a challenge of that forward pass even work? They blew it dead before anyone recovered the fumble.

I think it was a fumble as well.

My thoughts exactly. I don't remember who said that, but when he was with the Raiders his special teams units were mediocre. His record as interim coach got him his gig here.
