Barely crossed 100 yds of offense in the first half against the statistically worst defense in the league that is allowing almost 500 YPG.
Time of possession is not that far off. 12 min vs their 17.

On the bright side we are already over 100yds of rushing. I said before the game that's where our advantage is. Hopefully we dominate them on the ground in the 2nd, defense gets some stops, and we can pull out the W. Not looking good so far.

Given Maine struggles running the ball, you have to wonder why that wasn’t the game strategy vs a 2nd Half adjustment.

Just a terrible half all around. Big second half comebacks are great, but can’t rely on that.

19 yards passing and Maine still struggling to slow our run game. Imagine what we could do if we could complete some passes.

Just got back from a niece's Birthday party, so I missed most of the mis-adventures. Why was there no urgency in that final drive? I clicked on Flo and they are in Maine territory, taking at least 25 seconds to get off their plays. Where is the hurry-up that was needed?

Well that wasn't a great half. Still feels like we'll be right back in this if we can score on our first drive in the 2nd half

Or if we stopped trying to pass?

It looks windy and wet to start the 2nd half. Not a good sign for weather when the lights are on at 2pm.

Whatever happened to the "kick it towards the corner" punt?

Down 17-0…fourth and six at Maine 36. Punt instead of going for it. Yikes.

Even on 4th and 6, wouldn't have minded seeing us go for it there. Down 3 scores you gotta do something.

No idea, but haven't seen the coffin corner punt in years.

So far we've really struggled to move the ball against one of the worst defenses in the conference. May have to rely on D and Special Teams to shorten/flip the field

Allow me to introduce you to Mike London Clock Management.

I haven’t seen us look this bad against an average team in years.

When your defense has been giving up third and longs and fourth downs all day, and you are inside their 40, down by seventeen....you punt??

Well. Whatever.

About that...

Not looking at the records, Maine looks like a far superior team.
