Yea, while I don't take anything away from New Orleans, I don't understand how we lost that big and also gave up 17 sacks. Something doesn't add up and I don't know if it is anything that we did that just made the thing glitch or something, I don't know. I am confused as to what happened. I don't understand how we can be only a couple plays from being 13-0 to getting blown out by a 6-7 team. Again, I don't take anything away from New Orleans but this is just mind boggling.

Good game Red River. I think we are equally as shocked.

See you in a couple weeks maybe!

EDIT: Blame Texan...he put that jinx on you guys.

GG Ron, to much passing, not the Grizzley style, but we tried something different and it didnt' work, that fumble return for a TD was obviously the turning point in the game, great job, and VGL the rest of the way.

gl you guys as well.. I well say the passing did catch me off guard after I watched the game..so the surprise factor was there...on the fumble we just got very lucky..you score on that drive and it is a whole different ball game

GG Poison, I guess the Makos are pretty stunned and confused right now. I've never ranted on these forums or anywhere else about this game and I don't want to do that now either because you guys deserve credit for a blowing us out. I guess we just have a lot of questions right now. Congrats on your strong win NO.



uh.. Im with you both actually. I just logged in (and took my time about it cause I expected a loss) and am completely shocked. I havent had time to look it over... but.. in all honesty.. did Bort change something? Cause Im as shocked as you guys are.. mainly about the score but also the outcome as well. Going to go look over the game now..

Yeah that's the thing with me too, not surprised as much that we lost but the final outcome is what shocked us. Trust me, I had been worried about you guys for days especially after seeing how close you played Houghton. We knew we were gonna get a great game from you. We just weren't expecting to get blown out in what is one of the worst losses we've ever had since beginning this team. I've been going over everything just to see if maybe we missed something and about the only thing we missed was your great DE as he ran past our OT's and your WRs as they repeatedly burned out secondary lol.

Not to take away from anyone's wins, but it sure does seem like it. I've seen upsets all over the leagues today. Even lowly K&B blasted a team that should have beaten us, and probably would have, if the game had simmed ... yesterday. I think the sim has gone through some undocumented changes.

Undocumented changes??? NO WAY! I refuse to believe Bort would allow that to happen, especially this late in the season. At the very least I'm sure he would have clearly outlined the "adjustments"

(some may have heard this facetious tone previously ...)

Good game though Grizzlies. Definitely a hard fought one.
But way to go Ron ... another job well done!

This is probably going to sound biased coming from one of the teams that scored an upset today, but it seemed like the sim worked out properly according to our gameplan. Going over the numbers, and watching our playcalling during the game, everything worked out exactly as we had planned it to.

Whether bort made changes or not remains to be seen, but when I said we were shocked earlier by our win, I am more shocked at how well we executed the game plan we had installed, as opposed to the fact that we were able to beat a 12-1 team.
