There's so many times I see a wide open hole and hit it only to be tackled by someone that's being blocked. A 240 pound man whose being blocked shouldn't be able to tackle DeSean Jackson/Santana Moss/Devin Hester from the back being 5 yards away. We need a realistic return game, along with a realistic kicking game. Special teams is a very important part of the game. Look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epKm8UAt2Rw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2SpdESsTXo Barely do you see them breaking 4 tackles, doing spin moves or juking all over the place. You see them catch the ball, hit the hole quickly and accelerate past everyone while MAYBE breaking one tackle and that's someone that hits their ankle.

improved blocking = improved return game
