OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: 1st Place On the Line (vs. TITANS, 10/08)

[HoosierinFL]

I’m really liking how Steichen understands you have to use clock here but he hasn’t just gone conservative, he understands the need to get 1st downs too.

We gave away a lot of leads with Reich because he wouldn’t take risks with a lead

His play calling keeps getting better, I just wish he would be less aggressive on the 4th and, and just take the points.

Agree. And it helps that the O-Line is dominating the Tits and they can run like it's 1972.

I don’t like admitting when I’m wrong but I was wrong about Frank.

Watching Steichen is like a breath of fresh air. He is 1000 times better than Frank.

He might make a decision that doesn’t work out, but the decision is always defensible. You can always see the logic behind it.

He’s always on top of every situation. He dictates instead of being dictated to. It’s so refreshing. I always feel like we have the better, more decisive coach.

So far he’s been insanely impressive.

Not saying this to brag, but a lot of us thought Frank was the issue, and removing him would show that Ballard was doing it right, but Frank was screwing it all up. The team was a preseason favorite, based on the roster, and then Frank put a wet blanket on it, along with Ryan. now that we have a competent coach, and two competent QBs, we look much better.
