The national press (and the Buffalo News for that matter) can nail the Bills for years for not making the playoffs, but the quality of ST play is not in dispute by anyone. You’ve got to hand it to Bobby April and to Jauron. Dealing with continual roster turnover and the tendency of players and coaches to treat ST as the scrubs’ squad, they find players with the passion to play, and play well on the suicide squad. They found a Pro Bowl punter and a quality kicker. They’ve got dynamite returners, and in the past, gunners that nail the opposing returner before he gets three steps.

If you go to St. John Fisher, you will have the disorienting experience of watching 11-on-11 play when the horn sounds and most of the players walk to the sideline as Moorman or Lindell and company trot out to work on field goal protection or punt coverage. What? Wasn’t the offense just getting into a rhythm? Wasn’t Fewell just shouting at the defense? But you know what – It mimicks exactly what happens in a real game.

There’s a reason the Bills are good at Special Teams. They work on it.
