Special Teams wins the game for GB

How long has it been since this happened? Two kicks recovered, one for our only TD. And some good work by the field goal unit as well.

It's been a long time since I didn't cringe watching our special teams.

The only error was the Al Harris injury, beyond that, I think it was a perfect day.

I think bad special teams by Philly might have something to do with it too.

I would agree to a point - I think the Eagles ST lost the game. We however, were able to capitalize on these miscues - something that has not happened recently.

Also, Crosby had a nice debut deep kickoffs, a long FG with yards to spare and finally a clutch kick to win the game with a bad snap to boot. As much as I loved Longwell, I think he may have pulled up and not even attempted that kick or it would have at least thrown him off rhythm for a likely miss.

A bad day for Ryan probably contributed to the Eagles ST issues. If he would have kicked lights out, it is difficult to imagine them mishandling 2 punts so badly.
