Returning kicks is more than just speed. It's about picking a lane and making people miss with ball security. Brazil will get his shot but OBJ is pretty darn good and bailed us out yesterday.

This.

Punt returns are about making people miss and speed.

Kick returns are about reading your blocks and hitting the hole fast and strong.. Odelle is very good at that.

This. He has some flaws as a receiver but he is damn good with the ball in his hands. Mostly because of his ability to change directions so fluidly while maintaining speed. An ability that makes him perfectly suited for the return game. This game brought the idiocy of our fan base to a whole new level.
