stockholm got out-gameplanned badly in that game
I'm going to have to disagree. The score was actually much closer than it should have been, and all 3 INT's on our part were uncharacteristic bad throws or went right through our WR's hands. Hesinki had no real answer for our running game and outside of one play, their offense was held in check. If I'm not mistaken, they averaged 450+ rushing ypg coming into this game. They were held to 100 tonight.
The guys on Stockholm that know Xelstyle had nothing but good words to say about him in our team forum, and I believe them....but I think our guys more than held their own tonight. GG Helsinki. May we meet again in the playoffs This is pretty accurate. We lost our entire LB corps from last year, and as a result, it is our biggest weakness. However, we're working on gameplans that can compensate for that. He's also right about their defense... they did a great job containing the run while remaining stingy to the pass. They are a great team, and when we boost we'll meet them in the playoffs >: )
The exception is the interceptions, which were definitely characteristic of our pass D, which I consider to be one of our strong suits.
