On 4th and 8, with the game already won and only 2 minutes left on the clock, the Cows went for it. Instead of doing some pussy 8 yard pass, they threw to TO in the end zone.
Told you all so. They play AGGRESSIVELY, which is something we need to be doing. We're not. We're
way too conservative.
I got bitched at by the entire board for saying Bigby did the right thing by trying to run an INT back.
It is a MIND SET. I don't know why that is so hard to understand. A MIND SET. You play to WIN, not play not to lose. You play aggressively at all times. You play until the clock goes to zero.
You play to either score, or put yourself into a position to score. On every punt return, you consider a route to get into the end zone. On every kickoff return, you consider a route to get into the end zone. On every interception return, you consider a route to get into the end zone.
You want to send the other team to their locker room demoralized. You want to break them. You want to get into their heads.
The Cows kept on hammering away at us. They went for it on 4th and 8. They threw the ball on 3rd down instead of playing conservative, playing not to lose.
You play to win, at all times. You play to humiliate your opponent. You play with aggression. You do not let up. You do not go easy on them. You do not avoid taking chances. You do not play not to lose.
This is football. It is not soccer. It is a game of legalized war. You hammer away at your opponents until the game ends.
It is that mindset that wins games.
Psychology is a HUGE part of sports. Huge.
We have become soft. It is not acceptable. Mike McCarthy needs to get his edge back. Had it last year, doesn't seem to have it this year.
