This was better than week 1 but not by much. Let's win the BIg Game next week please!
What's crazy is if you look at the stats we killed these guys every place but the scoreboard (they did outrush us but 150 of their total rushing yards came on two plays). We beat ourselves today; the effort was there but big brainfarts and stupid penalties hurt us bad. Both are on the group coach or the position coach. We have smart teachable kids.
