Chiefs’ Dave Toub wants ‘everybody to relax’ regarding missed field goals

Kansas City’s special teams unit is in the spotlight after a turbulent finish in Houston and subsequent spice between specialists on social media.

“We need to look at the whole operation, blocking, snapping, holding, kicking,” special teams coordinator Dave Toub told reporters Wednesday.

Former Chiefs punter and holder Dustin Colquitt placed the blame at the doorstep of KC’s current punter and holder, Tommy Townsend, marking him as the culprit for the unit’s recent miscues.

“Watch the holds,” Colquitt tweeted. “On the extra point, the laces (are) facing the sidelines…he’s screwed him all year.”

Watch the holds & try saying that again…on the extra point the laces on facing the sidelines…he’s screwed him all year

“I don’t need to hear from Dustin to make adjustments,” responded Toub.
