We kind of took it on the chin in tonight's game, or at least in the second half. We led most of the first half and ended the half tied. We gave up the go ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter and another touchdown late when the substituting became a little more liberal.The game basically came down to their big, tough, fast kid breaking loose just a little more often than ours.
We have quite a list to work on for the next game, which is usually the case following the first game. Moving the ball with any consistency was a big issue.
The list:
- Blocking assignments
- Sustaining blocks-sometimes it wasn't even hit and quit, it was stand up and watch the ball carrier get tackled.
- Moving personnel-some guys will get new positions to get them in a position to help us.
- Creating ways to take advantage of personnel-we have a tight end who can really hurt teams with his size and good hands.
- Pretty much all the basics.
It was fun to see how kids would respond when another team was across from them, especially when they got seriously hit for the first time. The plan would be that now the kids have a better idea of the speed they need to be at to have success on the field.
