Great game to Rich. Very happy with how my defense did but he has to be even happier with his.

I got home after spending $1700 on our cat I just read the log slowly and that really was a heck of a game....my stomach was in knots reading the log....Great season Eric, I have a feeling you will be making a return trip there soon!
I did almost get sick as Hoyer was tossing balls into the endzone.
But I think for me the difference was my defense never allowed you one drive for a TD.....none of those 6 play 85 yard drives which are killers. I bent just enough, made you earn every yard. The key stat for me was 54% completion and 4.4 yds per pass. Rogers had very few chunks and that was important.....But admittedly, you made me earn that one. My offense was good but not great. The one area I am not pleased with was, I really thought I'd run better on you. And 14 carries was a product of the computer not picking it because I think my run was set at 40%. I really thought I could gain 5-6yds a chunk but oh well.
And yes Jerry, in hindsight I should not have passed those few plays late as I was driving. Thats why its always nice to see the game played out slowly so you pick out your profile flaws. But in this case, with a 5 point lead and a 40-45yd FG in sight, I hate settling for it. My natural inclination is to get one more first down, get closer or get a TD and end the game. I hate being too conservative, missing another FG and him coming down for a TD and losing the game. So did those passes end up giving him more shots? yes but had i completed one pass of those 3, then its basically game over there. It is one of those calls where if we were calling the plays ourselves live, I would have run 3x but in the profile, I am more aggressive.
Very good season, looking like an even more fun 2020 season with a full boat load of owners!!

That was almost as good a game as Super Bowl XIX
It sure was a rough day for Aaron Rodgers of the Packers and Jags!
Great season by both coaches

to the Bills for a great win.
to the Jags for a heck of an effort.
I know the pain, the last game I coached was a loss to Rich in SB XI
