can get more injuries. The entire team has been playing undisciplined football lately and all 3 units are hurting each other more than helping.
Play calling as well as game and clock management have also been poor lately.
The only good news lately is that if you go back and watch the last 2 WINS and look at what killed each of our stalled drives or extended each of the opponents scoring drives - very fixable. Very.
Don’t throw a shoe. Don’t slam opponents helmet back into the turf. Tackle the QB instead of trying to grab his arm. Don’t false start again and again. Don’t jump offsides again and again. Don’t try to surprise with on-sides kick and put your defense at midfield when you just gained the lead and momentum in the 2nd half. Don’t keep trying to run run run when it isn’t there. Try to score instead of trying not to score. Run downhill to run out clock instead of Jackson running a reverse. Run down the clock when opponent is out of timeouts instead of a pass play thrown into the dirt stopping the clock.
Then get the players to make correct reads and try the back-up place kicker. Improve tackling
Think how many style points all 3 units and all 3 coordinators left on the field in those 2 games.
Yet, 4-1 baby.
