I know I sounded all 'doom and gloom', but there's no reason to call this team "bad". This is a great team with lots of talent at all three positions. We just need to fix the special teams (holy shit what the hell was that 'formation'?), and need to get another scoring threat. Hopefully we make a trade to fix the latter by Monday, and practice on Sunday to get the fundies down again. Our vets are pressing to get stuff done (Tarasenko, Steen), and we were extremely frustrated by all the hooking and holding lately. We've got to play with more urgency to beat that with skill and speed; we can't go back to being a bashing team that plays the cycle all day.
Again, this is a good team. There is just some questionable decision-making by the special teams' coaches, a lot of pressing by our top offensive players, and a (unsurprising) return to allowing hooking and holding. If we can get a good set of practices in, and perhaps fire whomever is running the special teams, we can get back on track.
