Special teams coverage unit worse than KC. Scary.

Man. It is only pre-season, but the coverage units for the Philadelphia Eagles special teams were horrendous against the Steelers. I thought the KC coverage units were lacking, but man, this was really a night to forget for Philly's special teams.

They gave up both a punt return touchdown and a kickoff return touchdown.

They better get those issues resolved before they roll into KC, or Dante Hall is going to rip them a new orifice.

It's just another example of new guys playing together in the first preseason game. Since special teams undergoes the most changes during the offseason, kick coverage is usually going to be bad this early on.
