Well, Drake fell apart.
It was only a matter of time before the wheels fell off that offense. When you play a good defense and, on the other side, you don’t get the calls it puts you in a bad position. Drake is now in a very bad position. By losing this game they are now a one loss team in the PFL. A win against Stetson on the road still guarantees a PFL championship and an Automatic Qualification to the FCS Tournament. The problem is, again, the offense. These guys have to get a flow going again. They don’t have it. They are struggling with it a bit in all phases (a missed field goal –that may not have been a missed field goal– early in the game was the literal reason they lost).
Draining. Watching them is draining. Caring is draining. I am drained. Well, at least Colo won–convincingly at that. On to the next week.
Some Thoughts:
- I need some real alone time. I don’t live in a space where I get that. There is always someone around. I want some real time. Real quiet. Not a bunch. Just a few hours to really reset and get my mind right. I’m tired of feeling that someone is waiting on me, either to do stuff or to get out the way. I just need a moment to be still.
