JoeF Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 We went from having no playmakers the last 7 or so weeks of last year and the first 4 weeks of the season...to having playmakers all over the field the last 3 weeks....its truly amazing....last season and early this season the attitude was one of waiting for someone else to make a key catch, throw, turnover, special teams play or run...now we have playmakers all over the field... Spikes, McGee, Williams, Evans, Moulds, Bledsoe, Clements, Moorman, Baker, Mario Haggan, Coy Wire, Tim Euhus, Ryan Nuefeld, all made plays today in the clutch.... There are some obvious reasons--confidence on D that if someone trys to make a play--other guys are going to be in place to mitigate the risk if it fails. Milloy being back has a lot to do with this confidence. On O--its understanding and comfort with the system...there was no trickery today but some great calls--the deep ball to Evans was exactly the right call in that situation -- flooding the zone with Moulds in the slot and looking off Moulds and going deep was great....the no-huddle when we were down 24-14...the pass to Moulds on 3rd down for the TD, Drew read single coverage and hit the play..Moulds broke a tackle, Aiken had a great block--and in the end zone.. On special teams--these guys have been doing it all year--there is pro bowl talent not just with McGee and Moorman but with Fletcher, Crowell, Haggan, Greer, Wire..its like the early 90's It is amazing the turnaround...the confidence that has shown through is not just putting us back in the playoff race--but really setting the foundation for future years...this is what we all expected.....enjoy....
