Jaguars special teams about average
The Jaguars coverage teams are strange….they cover the kick-off well (20.2 yard per return avg) but have problems against the punt, allowing 10.1 yards per punt and a TD.
Josh Scobee has a strong leg, but he’s not very accurate connecting on 9 of 12 FGs and all 13 XPTs. Punter Chris Hanson is averaging 44.0 yards per punt, 36.0 yards net punt and has pinned 32% of his kicks inside the 20.
The return game is a little unsettled. Alvin Pearman has returned 8 punts for 78 yards (9.8 avg) and Chad Owens has returned 7 punts for 51 yards (7.3 avg). Maurice Drew has averaged 25.3 yards per kick-off return, which is great. Hopefully the Jags don’t replace him due to his expanding role in the offense.
