Special Teams Reactions October 9 2002 By Bryan Hersh of 49ers Paradise THIS CONTENT IS COPYWRITED, REDISTRIBUTION OF IT (including copy/pasting it to a message board, forum or bbs) IS PROHIBITED AND COULD RESULT IN LEGAL ACTIONS - feel free to quote up to 1 paragraph providing a source link to http://www.49ersparadise.cjb.net is included You have to hand it to Jose Cortez. He hasn’t had an amazing season, but he’s certainly been reliable since the second week of the season. His field goals seems to be much improved overt the end of last season. Cortez still lacks in the kick off department though, leaving the opposition, quite often with good field position. The special teams’ coverage units have not done anything out standing this season yet either. It was nice to see that the team was only forced to punt twice however. The return game also has yet to show any promise. The fumbles did stop this game though, and that was certainly encouraging.
The 49ers need to start making plays in this area of the field too. I’ve seen special teams turn games 180 degrees in the past, and I’d hate to see the 49ers fall victim to that type of situation again.
