That is a first down every 4 plays. Sounds like we should have run more to me.
Oh wait, that is (minus) 2.7 yards. Um, yea that sucks. Luckily we averaged an entire 3.4 yards more than than, meaning we could have punted on 4th and 5 if we had just run the ball.
I'm interested to see how the monster DE's handle the screen plays next year.

Yea i'm curious to see how screen passes will work out in general. Seems like if you have speedy backs and quick lineman screens could be pretty dominate

I agree, but at the same time, what do you need to defend the screen pass from a DE spot? speed and agility, which the dominant De's have already. I honestly think it is going to be more dependent on RB catching skill.

I'm pretty confident that Tanner can defend a screen pass. He has shown the ability to make some pretty good plays outside of just making sacks. And I haven't ignored his vision either which could come into effect with a screen pass.

Yeah, we didn't really want to be moved up - would rather have won the conference, but I guess we need to be up here competing eventually. It's pretty ridiculous how high some of the capped team's overall rankings were. We had like 4-5 teams w/ a 45 and I know in Africa A1, Real Men of Genius had a 48 in their first year...Ridiculous stuff, so give us some time and y'all are gonna need to watch out

I think he'll break 50

With the new AI and the tweaks to OT play I think you are right. I will take another 90+ season from him though!

I polled my team because at first I thought of trading places with someone but after we talked it over the guys wanted to stay so here we are. I feel the same as some of the others - will stick with the guys that got us here and wait to catch up to the powers that be
You guys can stop scaring the crap out of me with all the talk of the DE monster out there. I'm already looking for a triple team defense strategy and I can't find one.
Good to see you Bill - Coventry is looking good these days - my brother owns the Moz Chiefs and I GM for him - have some players on the team. Nice to see you for sure
