The toughest defense he faced was in fact the one he practiced against. Brother backed up every word.

Man somebody need to light a damn fire under the coaches & players or we might as well get use to having these feelings, we could be going back to our Mike Shula days. The players need to keep the main thing the main thing and that’s football, all this other stuff need to be cut!

First off we got out played out manned, wasn’t physical we didn’t stop the run again I’m guessing the 4-2-5 is the best we can do against the run again! Our offense looked very very stagnant we couldn’t get anything going at all. Our coaches not cussing but sitting back like 😬
