deal effort felt focused game last playoff plays teams watch
I think that a big part of this game is how you deal with distractions. I've always felt that when you watch teams in the last game of the season, especially if they are out of the playoff race, it comes down to the most focused team and who plays with the most effort comes out on top. It's a challenge.
awful efficient game hard negative offensive sloppy
I think there's an awful lot for us to learn. We were not sharp. We were too sloppy at times with the turnovers and penalties. It's hard to have an efficient offensive game if you have that many negative plays.
knack quickness rushing
I think his quickness and speed. He's got a knack for rushing the passer.
anytime awful begins difference four games hard prove statistics win
It all begins with the takeaway/giveaway. Anytime you go four games and don't get a takeaway and you're minus-8, it really doesn't make a whole lot of difference what else you do. Statistics prove that it's awful hard to win when you don't get a takeaway.
