Kentdawg, I guess I just had high expectations of our D. To me, they ran all over us! They had way too many receivers open down field for the long ball. CTG just looked to contitent on the sidelines. Me, I was jumping up and down screaming at the TV. Yeah, I know they had a pretty good running back. But that is no excuss not to form tackle. Why cant they wrap up? I mean come on! That itself a one of the first things you are taught when learning to play the game. I guess come Saturday we will find out what kind of team and coaches we have TO MAKE THE NEEDED CHANGES? I know it may seem that I am bashing these guys, but I LOVE MY DAWGS!! I want them to win everytime they take the field and believe that we can win no matter who we are playing. And when we lose, I'm upset. I dont care if the other team is better than us. Because in my eyes, there IS NO BETTER TEAM THAN MY DAWGS!!
The thing is some guys are just hard to wrap up. Some are easy.
It was the second game of the year and I have 100% faith that Grantham will adjsut, adapt and over come.
Of course we should not have lost that game. A poorly timed fumble and an absent Hall of Fame wide receiver likely hurt us more than the defense did.
