At Least Holcomb Got Rid of the Ball
I’m not going to talk about the Browns too much because I don’t want to throw up. I don’t think that they are the worst team in the NFL. I do think that they have one of the worst offenses in the NFL. The defense has played their butts off. They’re ranked 8th in the NFL in points allowed (17.4pg), but the offense is treating them like Roger Clemens. Rueben Droughns is showing that he is a good back, but Trent Dilfer needs to get his act together. He looks shaky at best. He’s holding onto the ball as long as Tim Couch did, and we know how that ended.
Omar Jacobs missed this week’s game against Akron. No problem, right? WRONG. BG lost at home to fucking Akron. Clearly Omar is more important to this offense than the offense is to Omar. Anthony Turner wasn’t bad, but he needs to get the ball to Sharon and Sanders. They combined for less than 100 yards receiving. Not what you want from two all-conference receivers.
Ohio State dominated Minnesota in the second half Saturday. I was a little worried when it was tied at 21 at the half. But then I remembered that playing in the Metrodome is no home field advantage. That combined with Maroney running for 14 yards in the second half pretty much doomed Minnesota.
(Side-note here, Animal from the Road Warriors son is a true frosh linebacker for the Bucks this year. He was Mr. Football in Minnesota last year but shunned Glenn Mason because he wanted to go to a school with a great linebacker tradition. I read that his dad got him an Andy Katzenmoyer jersey when he was younger, who would have thought Andy would ever come back to help the Bucks?)
Florida got a big boost from their defense against Georgia on Saturday. They got good pressure on Joe T. and never let UGA’s running game get going. They got just enough help from the offense. But if you’re the defense wouldn’t you want the offense to score their 14 points in the first quarter like they did? It’s always easier to play from ahead.
I laughed when South Carolina beat Tennessee Saturday. Does Fat Phil hate anyone more than Spurrier? When asked whether taking USC into Knoxville worried him, Spurrier asked why would it? He went in there with Duke and won. That’s great. Classic Spurrier playing mind games with the Orange-necks.
There’s only one reason that I wish I were still at my old job: the downfall of the Minnesota Vikings. It’s my favorite storyline of the season.
My flag football team lost 20-14 Saturday. We did outscore the Giants 14-12 in the second half. My spread defense worked in that the kids found the ball better, but it didn’t help them grab the flags. We did score on plays of 70 and 35 yards though. The latter on the last play of the game; a great QB naked boot call on my part.
New Philadelphia High School beat Dover High Friday night in the 101st all-time meeting. The local radio station simulcast the game online. I was really impressed. Dover runs a spread attack and Philly held them in check. NP was down 21-14 at half, but rallied and kicked the game winning field goal with 30 seconds left. Final, 31-28. That was NP’s first win at Dover since 1991 and their first back-to-back wins since I think 1992.
My boss just left so that is my cue to cut out of here as well. I’ve actually started working out again so I have to get to the gym so I can get home and hand out candy.
Later bitches.
