Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 311845, member: 716"] Freak play with the fumbles, maybe. But should we have been in a 12-7 halftime game against that team that night? I'd say no. Poor preparation --> team comes out flat against an inferior opponent. Poor strategy --> team gives up 50-yard touchdown pass half a minute before halftime with that soft prevent defense we so loathed. Freak play or not, an less-than-ideal coaching job (and a less-than-professional preparation job by the players) put us into a situation where it cost us. Say we'd come out sharp and it'd been 21-3 at the half; consecutive fumble returns would've been noteworthy but not fatal. [/QUOTE]
