I expected a little lack of laser sharp focus given the circumstances. The goal tonight was to try to make it through with no major injuries or targeting penalties and hope for a win. The next goal was to try and keep our starters getting some live game reps. In a nearly meaningless game we performed as I expected, by keeping Colorado just far enough out of reach. I didn’t expect us to be “all gas and no brake.” I expected us to be in first or 2nd gear and back and forth on the brake.
I actually like the fact that we had some errors and mistakes tonight, like special teams and some offensive issues like the INT. Hopefully that keeps us from being complacent and gives us motivation to improve and clean things up.
Mission accomplished.
