[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 938701"] The Packers aren't any good covering kickoffs but rank 23rd in yards allowed per attempt. Therefore I don't believe opponents plan to return more of them vs. the Packers than most other teams. It doesn't make any sense to compare Crosby's touchback percentage in 2021 to his career average as the rules have changed twice since he entered the league which in both instances had a huge effect on the numbers. With the current rules being in place since 2018 let's take a look Crosby's touchback percentage since then: 2018-20: 56.6% 2021: 42.5% Therefore his touchback percentage is significantly down this season. That number is misleading as well as touchbacks are counted as a 65-yard kickoff no matter if the ball just hobbled in the end zone or was kicked into the stands. [/QUOTE]
