The Work 8-5

[The Franchise]

Dudes are reading way too much into Corch Duh's comments the other day. He was trying to be positive and not get sucked into the negativity of dwelling on last season's failures. His ultimate goal, like any other Corch, is to give up as few points and yards as possible.

However, when you stand no real chance like last year you try to force the opposing offense to run as many plays as possible. The more plays you force them to run before giving up a score gives you a better chance of forcing a turnover.

FOOTBALL TEAMSomething that I found interesting from yesterday’s interviews is that Mark D’Onofrio is standing by his “bend, don’t break” philosophy. D’Onofrio says that while the he would like to improve total defense (ranked 116th out of 120 last season), he wants to focus on the scoring defense. I’ll be interested to see how that plays out because that mindset hasn’t been successful the first two years. There are bigger, faster, stronger players in place this year, but I believe D’Onofrio will need to be more aggressive.

Pete taking some journalistic liberties here to stir ***** up. His summary of what Coach D said has nothing to do with "bend don't break". I'd bet you that 99 out of 100 D coaches would say the same thing, and the one who didn't probably doesn't have a job (or at a minimum is a **** fool).
