Re: Negative Nelly Football Thread
One game do not a trend make. Im from Missouri, show me! I will be here pulling as hard as I can, but lets not overstate 1 game against a bad team. I do think this is a huge confidence builder and that may be what we need, players and coaches.

The camera didn't adjust to the shadows well. Some of the plays looked like they went into the ether.

Still rugby punting effectively, means they will never quit and go back to American punting.

Trying to get a hotel room in Pasadena the week of 1/1/16 is darn near impossible.

I think this has more to do with punt coverage than anything. Rugby style punts are very difficult to return. I am not a fan at all of that style of kicking. I think it takes the ball out of the punters hand or foot in this matter. But, I would rather see a punt roll 45 yards and be downed by us, than to be returned for 6. I think we could at some point see a wrinkle with this style, certainly opens the door for a fake.
Just my thoughts
