so your saying Controll the Ball Controll the Clock?


hmmmmm…..

Less 3 and outs means more first downs...70 pts per will win more games.

That's crazy talk, man.

but we want more 3 and outs and less 1st downs....    (from our Defense)

Wait a cottin pickin minute.. Are yous guys suggesting that if we score more points than the other team(s) we might win more games?  Well I AM SHOCKED! All this time I thought we relied on the sheer generosity of the league and other teams to hand us wins and became upset when they didn't.
