Eventually you have to put a game together and not have any excuses. If there were a game, this is it. The biggest disappointment this year, IMO is our offense. TF is only having an OK year. Yes he has to run for his life sometimes, but that is part of his game. He is supposed to have the skill of running for his life over and over and making that little pitch throw, or picking up 15 yards on the ground several times on 3rd down. For the most part our O line has been intact, which makes our offense even more disappointing this year. The loss of Shane Simpson was a huge loss, but just highlights the unrealistic position RA expected. Last year was just a fluke that Shane could stay healthy. That was a first. You cannot feature Shane. It is just silly to expect that he can return kicks and be an every down back. There is just no depth at RB and it shows. We get no respect with our run and then each and every team T's off on Flacco for all 4 quarters. There is no way to stop this mentality even if Flacco makes a big play because the other team just does not believe Flacco can consistently make plays against the rush. So far our opponents have been right. Delaware will be no different. Tommy either beats them and outscores them or we do not win.

I'm new to this board, but I wanted to introduce myself as Dan Steenkamer; I am a student journalist and the Delaware "Campus Correspondent" beat writer for HERO Sports FCS. I thought you all might be interested in having a peek at a new story on HEROSports.com: Delaware-Towson Pits Ambrose Brothers Against Each Other In Crucial CAA Game. In the article, Blue Hens head coach Danny Rocco and offensive coordinator Jared Ambrose discuss the significance of the Ambrose-vs.-Ambrose reunion and tackle what makes Tom Flacco so hard to defend as well as Towson's penchant for takeaways. There is no subscription necessary to view any HERO Sports coverage. I hope you enjoy!
