Crazy thing is that against us, it was mostly Chiles going crazy in the second half. In this game Chiles barely has to do anything because of how good your rushing attack was. Playing well in different ways is the sign of a good team.

Chip is very good at identifying what’s working and hammering it. Sounds simple enough but most coaches really fuck that up.

This was the first game where we didn’t score more in the second half and didn’t score points on our final 4 drives. And it was really just because there was no need to.
