Message: [QUOTE="cuselaxss26, post: 5766118, member: 8563"] The defense seems to be playing way too conservative imo. Meaning their more trying not to give up ground or just staying with their guy rather then forcing their men into where they want them or where goalie would like to see shots from. Where the defense go that played vs maryland where they were aggressive n just all over them. They were all on their guy so there wasn’t outlets to pass to n guy with ball got winded from trying get away n ended up forcing something that resulted in To. Why we are playing this super soft D like they’re so worried bout each other instead of trusting each other. Dwan for how big he is should be all over his guy but he just trots with his man never making much contact or get into the body. As said seems their just trying not to make a mistake n playing so soft they end up making more mistake cause their overly worried. Not to mention also possible playing this style to limit the penalties rhey gotten early on. But can’t just go total end of spectrum have to least find somewhere in middle of aggressive n also not getting flagged. Rather then this wet toilet paper D rhey have been playing. They give up on gbs possibly could her then again could be cause know they struggle with it n worry getting beat or given up something if go out to try. They need to want it bad n have to play that way. Like leo after some of his piss poor TO does he ride hard to get it back ? No he doesn’t just jogs or fastly walks with barely any effort. Either way if this entire team don’t start playing like they wanna earn it then they will be cooked in first round. Talent will only get ya so far n when going against teams who are just as talented or even little more talented (unc, ND, princeton) you need to want it more n take it. You also have to play nearly perfect to overcome those more talented teams by out hustling them n wanting it more. It’s not gonna be given it will be earned. [/QUOTE]
