Ugh. I feel like the defenders of Helm’s Deep did right before Gandalf showed up. Except I don’t know if Gandalf will show up on the 5th day when I look to the east at first light.
The grit and grind thing has worn thin and JG is just not mentally tough.
He’d be a great QB if he was but first pick on goal-line then fumble lossed right after we get an interception. Offensive play caller who goes for it too much and defensive play caller who is t-e-r-r-i-b-l-e.
You and I got sick watching it, imagine getting your body physically slammed for 3hrs. Yeah, they were ready for the bye by end of Q1.
Every team has injuries. Injuries are no excuse. The team you’re playing has injuries as well. Maybe hire a better strength and conditioning coach. Dan just isn’t a great coach imo especially x’s and o’s. He doesn’t put his players in the best position to succeed.
I don’t think the locker room has gone south. I think it was just a terrible game all around. The bye came at the perfect time. Get these guys away from football for a few days. Let them heal and recharge. Come back out and get after it. Getting players back healthy will boost morale a bit. They need to win one of their first few games after the break though. Otherwise things really could go south.
