Re: Disappointed, very
You bet turnovers were a killer, tough to overcome. But we fought to the end. Lesson learned on the D running over the top for the block.

Re: Disappointed, very
and some things to win, 6 or 7 sakcs, two turnovers. can't cough it up 4 times, though, no doubt about that. you're right, but let's see what next week brings. I do truly feel and believe we have the makings of a good team.

Re: Disappointed, very
I'm past the point of being satisfied with fighting to the end. That's what a team is supposed to do. Finishing games matters more to me. We're 4-5. We are what our record says we are. The thing is, the excuses for some of the losses have been an injured defense. But the defense showed up today. To see us blow the game on offense at home is a big disappointment to me.

Re: Disappointed, very
I didn't and nor did I feel that way. I felt the '14 team was frigan horrible. The defense had 6 sakcs, two more turnovers. we're getting there. not there yet, but getting there. could go 7-9, definitely, but I feel like this team is better and I see it. might not be there yet, but we have the makings of a good team. Just my opinion, and I think there is some evidence for that too

7-9 with all the hope in the world going into the offseason, and it's likely we'll do the same thing next year. Lol Edit: I'll have to throw another loss in there to get that 7-9 but you get the point... Same season 3 years running... |

Re: Disappointed, very
I said on offense and special teams. Notice I didn't mention the defense.

Re: Disappointed, very
That should have been a penalty, the rule clearly states what is considered leverage. The guy landed on the center.
Rule states: (o) Jumping or standing on a teammate or opponent to block or attempt to block an opponent’s kick. |
