Took a look at our alarming give-aways Ober the first 5GP...
We have 67 GV ...that is 13.4//game...Compare to last season at just 9.463 per game...A whopping increase if the trend continues...it projects tp 1098.8 for 82 GP compared to only 776 last season...Obviously this must be reduced ir we are in big trouble ..
We have only 36 take-aways thru 5 games ...so our TK-GV differential thru 5GP is -31...project that for 82 games and you get a season TK-GV of -508.4 ...compated to last season's differential of just -175...The goal of course is to have more take-aways than give-aways but even if it should be negative like ladt season,you cannot be so bad as to be almost 3 times as worse as last season in this differential...
Yes we have a very early and small sample ..but unless these indicators drastically improve,we are not going g to contend for anything. YOU cannot tempt fate by such sloppy play on give-aways at this rate.And as for take-aways we need a combination of more speed more battle and more effort.
These poor giveaway/takeaway statsa reflection on Q ..can he fix the issues and motivate better battle better focus better.. and effort at least ..as for speed ..Schmaltz will help but we need a lot more.
