Haven't seen you much on the forum but I just wanted to say your rush d is legittttt.
After making the trade with Detriot last week for QB Hitchcock, who we believe has a bright future in this league, it was time to throw him to the wolves. Basically because we had no other choice. He was significantly rusty obviously and we knew we had to lean on the run game, unfortunately we couldn't even fit a pancake between the tackles. We had to abandon the run early due to game script and lack of success, forcing Hitchcock to drop back 45 times. I thought the young qb played ok considering his time off and a new playbook. I was happy to see him execute the 4 minute offense very well. Leading the team down the field twice for points before half.
We may not meet the expectations we had set for this year but I want this team to focus on doing their job and not worrying about the score.
We are 3/4's of the way through the toughest part of our schedule, playing Fargo, Boise City, Denver and now Alaska is no easy feat. After 2 losses on the road I'm sure the guys are happy to return home for a divisional game.
I wish you zero luck in the next coming weeks Alaska
