Week 5:
Some good games this week!
The Swarm dominate the Blues for a 21-0 win. Nice to see that defense is still keeping them in the race.
The Twisters pull out their first win by downing the Browns.
The Maroons, Oranges, and Rainbows all keep winning to remain undefeated.
That means the Treefrogs have fallen from the elite tier of teams.
We got handled by our old arch nemesis Purples. They run a QB rushing style offense that we had no answer for. Our defense is pretty limited in run stopping, if the d-line can't get it done. Since we only have 1 LB, and our safeties are almost exclusively used in deep coverage, we just couldn't stop anything run to the right. Eventually, that's exclusively where the Purples ran.
On offense, we tried out the Rhino power running playbook. (2 RB with the extra 4th OL) Not bad, but it's hard to come back when you're trailing by running the ball.
We'll have to do some regrouping on defense. That was eye opening.
