How’s that for a palate cleanser, gang? Were there some fortuitous bounces? Sure. Were we due some of those? Ab-so-F!$#-ing lutely. The bigger story there IMO is the fact that our offense seized the carp and turned most of those opportunities into points. That’s something we’ve struggled with this year, and credit to Real Deal Neal and Co for flipping the script there.
And speaking of RDN, go ahead and dance your dance buddy. There’s a disappointingly significant portion of our fan base that are actively rooting for the guy to fail, and some of their criticisms are fair, but the guy was aggressive from the opening kick and called an absolute gem of a game.
