Lions 26 - Bombers 9 -- Post Game Stats and Comments
Posted: Sat Sep 13, 2014 9:53 pm
We went down the field against some 8 and 9 man fronts. Passes of 44, 39, 26 20.
Big gainers. Glenn was 14/15 for 193. In the first half.
Simpler scheme and assignments for the O Line.
Pretty decent half. But still very vulnerable to pressure on the QB. Not opening up holes for the run game.
.................
Willy injured. Gotta pressure the backup.
We have allowed three sacks midway through the 3rd. Tons of pressure on Glenn.
Who the heck challenged the ruling on the missed FG? O'Shea was pretty happy about it. Returner should not have tried for glory.
Glenn throws it away, and still takes a hit. No offence in Q3. More pressure on Glenn.
Into the 4th. Are we playing not to lose? Up by 10 still.
.............
Two receivers down, so ...
Suddenly we start doing what has been a major theme on here, and what Angus wrote about ...
Angle blocking left. 10 yards for Harris.
Angle blocking right. 16 yards for Harris. Does that make you crazy? Simple scheme. No reads. No detailed technique. Block the man to your right. Get your weight on him. Take him to the right. Pow. Huge freaking hole for Harris.
Angle blocking left. 20 for Harris.
Our O Line averages well over 300. I heard pre game the Bombers D front averages much, much less. So, run the ball, right?
Can Andrew Harris run the ball, when he gets a bit of a hole?
Pretty good effort by the Lions.
Way to go, Coaches.
Angle right. 12 for Harris on a humongous angle blocking hole.
7 more. 7 more.
.............
Our defensive players took the life out of the Bombers offence. Solly. Biggie. Front four worked very hard, as always.
O Line used their size and strength well. The angle blocking was very effective on runs, when we focused on it in the 4th Q. Huge holes opened up. Cutbacks for Harris.
The D Line cannot withstand blocks from the side by guys bigger than they are. Impossible. The entire mass of humanity moves in a strange Buffalo Dance to the side, and huge cutbacks holes are created for the running back to find. Presto. D Line tongues hanging out. Hands on knees between plays.
When you have big hogs, just put it in first gear, and earth move the D Line to the side. Don't bother trying to build a complicated, high maintenance Lamborghini. The running backs can do the Italian sports car stuff.
Big play Manny. 3/79 and a very nice TD.
Gore showing what he can do. And Haidara. No idea why he is so deep on the depth chart.
As the season wears on, the coaching throughout the league levels out (until the playoffs, when it once again becomes a big difference maker). We figure a few things out. The players adjust.
Back later ...
