Hats off to Trevon Flowers

Trevon is a decent player and the INT shifted momentum to be sure but a senior shouldn’t drop punts. That last pass attempt by Pittsburgh has to be concerning too. A good ball and they tie us up on a 4th and 20. We need a lot more talent in the defensive backfield and only recruiting will correct that.
We were in a zone but it looked like it was McCollough who had the area by the receiver on the last play of the game. He gave too much space. A good ball and he’s making contact with the receiver at the 1 yard line and probably falling into the end zone barring a hard tackle.

NFL veterans drop punts.

He definitely made game changing plays ( for both teams ) a couple of times! I think the pick in the end zone was probably the biggest impact play.
I think it was Fulmer that said when talking about such a player..."when he us out there, somebody's band is going to play"

I don’t really like Flowers in the return game regardless of his muffed punt. I feel like we got way more dynamic guys on the bench that should be out there.

I suppose they really trust him that’s why he’s out there.
I’m not sure I would put Flowers on PR, even if he’s technically the best at fielding punts. My thinking is that’s the one position where a mental error could be disastrous, and a tired player is more likely to make a mental error. Flowers will likely play over 90 snaps every game with our pace and there will be times where he’s exhausted and has to field a punt to close out the game. I don’t know that fatigue had anything to do with the muff, but I believe he’d already played about 70 snaps by that point.
