Ice74 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 we are -2we cant keep this up3 turnovers wont cut it, and i consider the blocked punt a turnover, especially when we give them the ball at our 20, with the way our punt return has been they would have been pinned down around 10-20 with a couple of minutes leftcant do this against Minnesota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfanjason Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 It's an area that can be improved upon.I think because the team has done so well that we have the second youngest team in the league. There are going to be mistakes. You don't want them this late in the year with so much on the line but its something to work on for next year.

Ice74 Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 its interesting seeing the stats for the Minn gamealmost identical running offenses, but Minn run D is the best in the leaguealmost identical pass defense, but we have the edge in passing offensei see this game won with field positions and special teams, limiting to's and limiting big plays this week that was 2-2 we had field position and limited their big plays on offnese, but we lost special teams and to's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north falcon Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Off the top of my head, in the past 5 games we're probably -10. I know we've forced 0 fumbles and 1 INT in the past 5 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfanjason Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Ryan will need a big game. I think we just played the best passing defense we've face all year. Tampa was 2nd or 3rd in the league in interceptions I think.It's going to be tough for Turner to run on Minnesota's defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
