Time to put the women and children to bed and go hunting for ****ing dinner boys. Playoffs are here a week early(yes I know we are in either way).
What teams shows up tomorrow? I don’t hate this game for Bobo at all. They haven’t changed much on defense and he’s got a whole lot on film to wrinkle off of and I’ll bet he does early and often. Catch the freaking ball! Carson has been very good lately and playing with more moxie. If he hits a few early Saturday, watch out. If not he will find it eventually but damn, let’s try 1 without the slow start for once. OL is healthier, a healthy ish Rod and Frazier= ETN production at this point. They haven’t changed much, just going to try and be better at it than the first time. We can be MUCH better than the first time tooZ
Defensively unless they make a wholesale change to Arch or Schu jumps the shark scared of QB run and filters it to Ewers stuff too, we match up very well with them. They can’t push it vertically with much consistency, they run the ball ok but we defend non running QBs quite well. Losing Miller sucks, not sugar coating that 1. But if Ewers is in the game send hell and they either run into a run for a L or heat him up. If he hits deep shots and forces us out of it, so be it.
Sark is going to try and overload sides of the formations to leave the back on 1 of the LB’s(inside or out), early and often. Chris Cole needs a role in this 1 chasing guys in space. The rest of them send at the QB and force them to block numbers, they struggle against good pass rushes and vs the blitz are awful.
We keep them from catching a groove in the run game(very double), and they have a tough sled. May not be as wire to wire dominant as last time but we are still simply better and more talented. Motivation is to our advantage in my opinion as is location. It’s been a wild year and it’s hard to beat the same team twice. But we are a bad matchup for them unless they sit Ewers the whole time.
