Week #9 Discussion

[BOSS]

Good win against Vermont! GG Coder

Games like that worry me and was glad to get the 'W'.

Now its Penn/Madison week. I did not think both teams would be sitting here at 7-1 tied for first place at this point in the season.

We handled them pretty good in Week 1 but Penn has reeled off 7 straight wins since. We have to travel there this time. Gonna take a good game from us to beat them.

This would be a HUGE win for us.

Another close lose. We play close!

when i missed that 2 pt conversion to go up by 3 and with a good minute left on the clock i thought you were gonna win the game. all you needed was to get to my 30 yard line and you would've had the game. i am NOT liking my defense. my offense is what's carrying the team. this was supposed to be year 2 of my rebuilding, i really only have S Shapiro as my lone defensive standout and he's just too young to make an impact - i'm very surprised we're this competitive this far into the season with the bad defense we have. so many holes. i have young guys starting that will most likely be bench players in about 3 seasons. outside of Shapiro i don't have anyone to build on defensively.

My defense is playing surprisingly well this season. We have rookies at DT, SLB and CB. Plus a new MLB and SS. We have 14 interceptions and lead the league in forced turnovers with 23. CB Fyie has really made an impact. And CB McKenzie is having a defensive MVP type season with 4 picks, 3.5 sacks and an 82.6 PD%. My pass rushing duo of Prescott and Lofton have combined for 6.5 sacks and 20 hurries.
Pretty happy with this unit.

Tulsa WRs Albriktsen and Andrews put on a show today. Albriktsen had 6 catches for 95 yards and 1 TD, Andrews had 6 catches for 130 yards and 1 TD. That was my offense. Nothing else. No run game, lots of turnovers. My defense played great allowing 12 points. We set up shop in Oaklands backfield. We were all over Donovan. 6 sacks, 8 hurries and 6 knockdowns.

I'm not sure they "put on a show" bro. Frankly, I wasn't that impressed. The gameplan appeared to be, heave the rock and pray. Albriktsen was less then impressive and Sanford had a terrible game. My inability to create any offense at all was the reason you won the game. Your defense was great, THEY put on a show just destroying my offensive line. That's who you should be impressed with.
I didn't expect much this year with 2 rookie receivers starting but that's ok. By this time next year I should start to show serious improvment and won't have many games like this one. Your team took care of business, much like....pretty much everyone I have played this year haha. Good game bro!! I will return the favor soon!!

throwing deep was St. Louis' gameplan against me. it worked quite well too. i was expecting a West Coast offense. not that i specifically gameplanned for a short passing game, i have a bend but don't break gameplan in that i don't tailor too much to any specific opponent.

We roll for the second week in a row. Not sure where this is coming from. Changed a few things gameplan wise but nothing major. Hopefully it continues against the Heroes next week.

we don't have a good defense so probably whatever you want to do you'll wind up doing it successfully against us.

i want our front seven to run a train on Sante somewhere near midfield. It's harder than you'd think to duplicate that with those little % boxes.

[Hell Atlantic]

we have a pretty decent offense, so you won't be winning the game because of your defense. just put together a semi-decent offense and you'll win. i have no confidence in my D. the reason why Nathan Mullin's punt return yards totals are so low is cuz we can't stop anyone and the opposition winds up scoring, be it either a TD or a FG.

[JMO]

Oh it wasn't with the goal of winning. I literally want to see my front seven rape your QB. I'd take the 15 yard penalty.^^
