[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 354668, member: 265"] I think this was due to their DC deciding to sell out to stop the dive. They had obviously decided to stop TM and Benson from beating them. They looked faster because they were stunting and using the LBs to backfill. We burned them continuously in the first half for that. Problem = once the rain started (I was wondering where Noah and the Ark were myself), the whole speed game to the outside became more chancy and we ran inside most of the time. That is what the game situation dictated - being ahead and bad field conditions meant no passing to speak of and little outside. Also, until their last series, the D was playing pretty well. This points to a problem with our O and it is one of the few: it isn't a wet field offense against a solid opponent. I've noticed this down the years. True, like Coach always says, rain affects both teams. But I think it causes us more trouble, especially when a team sets up to stop the inside game. With Benson out - he was averaging 5 YPG - we lost the BB push we needed as the field deteriorated. Quaid did ok and on a dry field would have done even better, but he doesn't have Benson's drive. That's why I think losing Benson meant, in the long run, losing the game. But not until the last 4 seconds. We played pretty well down there. [/QUOTE]
