    Why does the coaching staff see any advantage in having the defensive backs line up 15 yards from the receiver off of the line? This is an honest question. I know you don't want to give up the big play, but when you have speedy players like we do aren't you comfortable with the feeling like they can catch up to any sprinter running past them for the long pass?

    It happened all second half. Both sides of the ball went conservative and played not to lose. And you know what that gets you. BEAT!
