    I've seen no indication they can stop our running game. That does not bode well for them. We need to continue to be aggressive.

    Fielding that punt was mind blowing. No need to do that whatsoever!

    Great first half!!!

    gotta keep pounding that D!!! Etienne will break some big runs this half!

    Well….frankly that was an amazing half of football, better in most aspects (all but ST) than I thought this team was capable of.

    What i imagine is that fielding it guarantees and easy kneel down before the half. Letting it bounce could, in theory, result in a ball downed inside the 1. And that would be a lot more stressful

    If I’m Billy I’m preaching consistency in that locker room. Without it you can’t go where you want to

    This is how I expected to look offensively against Utah. Efficient, tough.... physical running game, passing when you want, not when you need to. Close to 50 plays in the 1st half, continue wearing them down

    Got to stop them opening the half and put a nail in it with another TD. If that happens they won’t have a chance to make a come back. Hell they’ve got quit in them now…they almost acted like they wanted to run out clock that last possession

    The running game seems unstoppable, but if they stack the box, I totally feel confident that Mertz can deliver.
