bmfyxpp Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Now that I think of it, why are there 11 slots for the coverage team? Shouldn't one of those slots be for the kicker on kickoffs, and two slots for the punter and long snapper on punts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlie Rahn Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 It's more for depth incase of injury. Having 11 names gives an extra 1-3 players listed in the event someone gets hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eumel Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 On a related note: if a player appears only on special teams (apart from the punter and kicker) then this is for some reason not counted as a game played. My long snapper is still at 0 GP for the season. I know this is a minor issue, but it irks quite a bit, as a stats nut. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
