Life after Peacock is looking bleak if we're to base our estimates on today's performance against the Texas Hellriders. Unlike last year's game where most Phantom Phans would agree the Hellriders used smoke and mirrors to ride off with a win, today the Hellriders merely outplayed our boys in the second and most important half of the ballgame.
After apparently getting a lesson in gameplan adjustments by his younger opponent Eugene Poston, Lawrence Coach Hunter Crawford had this to say...
"We're trying to win a ballgame..just started...and Ezra decides to kick someone. What the fuck is that??? I mean, one minute your playing football, and then you just kick a dude? Don't make no sense to me. And our offensive line ain't the best to begin with. I don't know if you knew that.
Then we get double digits in penalties to drop us back 80 yards... we're missing figgie's left, right and all over...
What can I do? Take back 3 penalties and hit those field goals and we might win the game. We'll get this ship righted before the season's over. We're not gonna stick our heads in the sand 'cause Big Ed went down. I can tell you that."
Coach took a step towards fixing those field goal woes today by signing quarterback Korey Boyer to hold for Darren Dunlop on kick attempts. However, seeing as how the Phantoms were up 7-0 at halftime, there is plenty of sentiment around Lawrence that Coach Crawford simply got outcoached in this one.
