Bring It Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 TWO very important improvements over the miserable past :1) When we got in the "red" zone, we didn't settle for a FG...................except for the one penalty that called back a TD. In years' past we would drive down to the 7 or 8 yard line only to have Dunn thrown for a loss, or a sack, or an incompleted pass in the end zone. DOZENS OF TIMES !!!!!!!!2) Almost SIX minutes left in the game, with a good lead. In years' past it would be 3 and out, giving the ball over to the other team to start a comeback. Yesterday...................TOTAL BALL CONTROL..............first downs galore..................take a knee with 1:45 left................end of game !!!Our team......................AND COACHING is so improved it's off the charts !!!!

dakid Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 We were just victims of bad coaching and bad playcalling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconfansince66 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 You're right.................it probably never happened.SEPTEMBER 16th, 1973 - 62-7 route of the New Orleans Saints... But nobody scored until the 2nd Quarter or it could have really been ugly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WineBird Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Ha! Leave it to FFsince66 to find us an example.Hmm, 62-7 against the Aints, almost makes me want to invent a time-machine to go back and enjoy it :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritzblitz 2.0 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 For the first time since Reeves was fired, we have genuine honest-to-goodness NFL caliber coaching on this team. We did not get out-adjusted and out-schemed in the second half like we did so many times with Mora and Petrino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
