Dawg days after a win?
Well that was an ugly game or was it.
I know a win is a win, but what did we learn.
- Apparently Coach Fabris will let the kickers go deep, who knew. Many speculate Coach Fab read Bernie's blog on the subject.
- It seems that Coach Martinez needs to work on stopping the screen pass, with some work towards the option as well. Granted those have always given us issues.
- As a result of some great special teams play, thinking return teams, we ended up with some great gameplans. Even if Coach Bobo tried to screw that up. See we would get a great return (over 35 per with a 100 yarder for a TD) then mix pass and run with Samual and crew. Sadly Bobo would forget this at times and we would stall out.
- We still can't put people away as I posted earlier. Granted no one thought this game would get past 20 points much less 40.
- Is Joe Cox still the man? Debate shall continue. And where was Logan at? Either he is not ready or they forgot about him. I'm hoping for one series with him just to see. Otherwise we may have to see what Aaron has, but not sure I want to lose a year of his playing time at this point unless he becomes the starter.
- Still too many mistakes. Most are mental. A high snap that ended in a safety, jumping offsides or personal fouls. Although I think our rep as a hard hitting and rough team is playing against us on the personal fouls. Because this is tackle football.
- We also learned Twitter is a great place to hang out if you can't make it to the game. Thanks to the Dawg Circle, it made having a heart attack at the end of the game worth it. Not a real one, but even Rex had to pop some blood pressure meds.
- Injuries and conditioning still play a role. A role that continues to hamper our team. We had more cramping and I.V.'s again last night and may have lost Battle to a knee. Prayers go out to him.
- Our defense seems to be up to the task. For most of the game they held their own and came up BIG at the end to save the game.
- Where was this offense against the Cowboys? Hell they got beat by Houston on Saturday. So does this mean that SC is just bad? Did we find our offense? Guess we'll find out soon enough against Arkansas.
I hope we continue to improve and continue to win, but we still have some items to address.
So until next time, may the Dawgs stay injury free and win.
