    GG Rode68,

    You made an interesting move releasing QB Donald Fancher, who had a nice season going, and put the offense in the hands of journeyman Ezra Casas. That worked in the wildcard round as Casas had a career game. But vs. IWC, he tossed 4 INTs, 3 of which setup 17 points for the Tribe and the 4th INT which basically ended the game. We were not great on the offensive side of the ball, but QB Mills was efficient, and the run game was good enough to pull out the victory.

    Good luck in future seasons. You appear to have solid team if the QB position can be addressed.

      GG Dawgfan19. The Fancher move was made only because how often we turn the ball over. We topped the TO rankings while being dead last in offensive drives played, 37 TOs (27 INTs) in 160 drives was way too much. Fancher was not too accurate throwing deep, which is his main asset, and with only one year left in his contract he would likely have asked a king's ransom to resign. All that combined led me to release him and give Casas a shot, as he is potentially a much safer (and cheaper) albeit unremarkable QB. He has thrown 4 INTs in two of his three starts, so he'll probably be benched next season.

      The game was close until Casas decided Iowa defenders deserved to touch the football too, from that point onwards it was all over. FOF gods rewarded the team that took better care of the ball. We could not handle the run game in the first half either, that put us on the back foot the hole game.

      Good luck going forward, one game closer to the bowl game.

        Total humiliation at the hands of Murfreesboro, GG Jamesumd. I'm pretty speechless after that, got our cheeks clapped. 5 picks from Bryson? God damn, not sure what I can do about that (apart from run his ass outta town). GG again man, that was a demolition and you rightfully move onto the next round, good luck!

          Thanks Mellman. I was quite surprised at the outcome. The 99 yard INT put you in a hole and it seemed he (Bryson) couldn't get out of it. I complained about the offense for most of the season, but the last 4 weeks they played more like I hoped, but you were my favorite to win it all this year, so suffice it to say, winning this game would not have been in my "bracket."

            GG Joe,

            Turnovers kept this from being the close game it should have been. Your rookie qb got his first taste of the playoffs and I expect he will will keep coming back for a long time.

              gg! we obviously need to load up on run D if we have any chance of stopping you in the future.

                Wow, some serious scoring going on for the divisional round! Not surprised to see Colorado make it through to set up a week 1 rematch for a place at the bowl. Unlucky Mellman Bryson was SOOO hot the last weeks of the season. You wanna check what he was up to for his bye week...
