@Jets.... all of MFN's running game was consumed by the Bucs in the game... we ran the ball for 47 times and threw for only 13 times.... We had super success running the ball maybe all the invest in the OL paid off.....well at least for one game ... :)

I had to run the ball that many times as it keeps wearing my team... down the road ..:)

GC - Eagles......you were able to move the ball just our defense did not allowed you to score many points.

You make a valid point a good running game will impact the opposing D. In seasons past this has worked, but am not so sure anymore

Jacksonville 14 Cleveland 35
Tough luck of the draw, opening day, on the road, hard to scout the first game, and we've been putting up some points. Good luck the rest of the way JAX.

PS: zone coverages were lousy for me, am trying to give them a chance, anyone having any luck w them?

Thanks G-dad. This team needs some more work before it fits my style, but they didn't do too bad against the League Runner-Up and Defending Division Champion. You'll probably wallop me in Atlanta.

Some zones seem to work for CBs and FSs, especially if you're ballhawking.

Zones work as long as your opponent doesn't throw a lot of medium/deep routes or you're willing to gamble that your opponent is not going to throw over them. On short routes, they put a lot of people in the passing lanes. The danger there is your opponent destroying them with the run.
