How does a player on the punt coverage team not know a basic rule like this? You have two jobs: down the ball in a favorable position, or tackle the punt returner.

To be fair, I thought he knew the rule, his execution was just terrible. He thought he could stop his body from crossing the endzone, so he held on to the ball rather than batted the ball out.

No he didn't. If you watch the replay he dives into the end zone then a teammate gives him a 'comeon man' look and tells him he should've swatted at the ball instead. Cannon gives a "I didn't know" shrug

What makes it so horrendous is that he wasn't touched on either fumble! Then when Wilson pulled his magic when another bum, Dontae Johnson, missed the sure sack, the demoralization really seemed in. It was just awful.

Cannon - Parker - other scrubs that we signed... still not sure why The Best Mind In Football couldn't add up all the money and offer it to Cordarelle Patterson instead..
