I see a few posts here of the individual games and peoples opinions on our performance from individual games. I like reading them both good and bad. I would like to remind everyone that this is just preseason and there are going to be plays that we don't have success with and it shouldn't cause people too much concern because Saban and company are using the preseason to experiment with schemes and and player positioning. To see what works and when and who fits and who doesn't. With that said, I'd like to give you some important stats of my own to show how we've done in the three preseason games thus far.
I chose stats that reflect both sides of the ball to give you an overall pictre of our team. The stats I chose are Drives, plays, 1st down, total yards, rushing, Time of possession, what you will see are our total stats from the three games and our opponents total stats. I won't show each team because that would be a big post so it will be a total. Here goes:
<<<<<Mia...........................................Oppo.>>>>>>
drives: 40...........................................34
plays: 246..........................................169
1stdwn: 61..........................................38
Ttl yrd: 963.........................................821
rush: 255.........................................198
TOP: 100:50.......................................78:52 min are just close not exact!
Ok, I think that covers it, as you can see we lead in every category. Keeping in mind this is preseason and those numbers don't really matter, what it does tell you is the coaching is far improved since Saban arrival. By leading in every category that would elude to a fundementally sound football team and IMO that's the base foundation for a championship team, it also explains why Saban is pleased with where we are. I think fans that get upset that we didn't rush well against Carolina you need to see the big picture, the oline blocking will be the last phase of the team to fall in line because it's the hardest thing to do consistently add to that the fact that we have had a new Oline for the last 3 years and it's just a matter of getting the timing down. Thoughts???
