What is the deal with XPs?

[noeynox]

Two blocked in two weeks. Anyone get a read on what's causing it?

As far as I could tell they were both bad snaps, but that's not the only factor.

Bad snaps and bad interior blocking. Inexcusable. Special teams all around (outside of Wain) have been very poor.

Punt returns look like there is no blocking going on and our only obective is field a fair catch.

It's not like we're going after the punter either. I'll have to start paying more attention to what guys are doing while the punt is in the air, because it sure doesn't look like much.

Could be do to the poor snaps but XP's seem to take forever to kick and the ball is locked low.

As long as ST's are being discussed, what's with the short kickoffs? Thought the team had a leg to put it on the endzone this year.

I was waiting for this to come up here. 2/4 on XPs is lousy.

The miss today was right in front of me. The snap looked fine but a guy broke through the left side and laid out for the block.

 

[Palatine]

The kicks are low and into the line. They barely had to get in the air to block the kicks. I think it's on #17.

Both misses had issues w/ snap being low causing Boyle to make adjustments throwing off timing. Last week moreso than today. He's fine when snap is on point.

Opponents are getting through the line, I think both times it is over center and to the right of center. Our punt return is really weak. No blocking and also no pressure on the opposing punter.
