| A three sack game, wasted. |
Yikes. The offense should have scored 20 more. The defense should have given up 20 less points. After giving up 4 quick, easy touchdowns in the first half, and the offense responding with 4 scoring drives, I think everyone in the building thought the team had righted the ship when they into halftime down just 26-24. But the defense gave up two more scores after halftime and the offense could only muster one more TD. You have to hand it to East, they were prepared and ready to play. We were outplayed and outcoached. But it has to sting to lose to a team that hasn't beaten you in 16 years. Luckily, the problems the team had during the game can be fixed. But it'll take some very dedicated players and coaches to make sure everyone's on board, and that everyone is paying attention, because this team is on the verge of doing the unthinkable: missing the playoffs.
There were, of course, some highlights: we almost ran a kick back for a TD, The Rock had 3 sacks, Hollywood threw a few nice deep balls, and J-Life continued his excellent kicking streak. And, really, IT'S HOMECOMING WEEK! BEST WEEK OF THE YEAR! Only if you win, though...
