SF draws first blood in the battle of the aces.

Their supposed Achilles heel was whether they could score enough to back up their rotation. So far, so good.

TEX hangs some more runs on Yankee pitching, this time not giving away the game late.

I'm slowly warming to an unlikely SF/TEX World Series. If nothing else, it's some new blood.

1 & Done

Victory formation... Varsity... Varsity... Varsity

Last word on Rodger's hit

Interesting analysis by Seifert on the 4-letter.

I'm not so ignorant that losing your best defensive player & being without a running back that could eat clock doesn't play into last week's Packer loss, but when Brady gets a roughing call when someone brushes his leg and Manning has an Enterprise-worthy shield around him, young QB's are often left without this protection.

Sunday's non-call wasn't nearly as bad as Berry leaving his feet & lowering his head last year in the playoffs, but if they're going to call catches in the end zone by the letter of the law, this needs to be consistent also.
Very encouraged by the commitment to the run tonight... though going up early certainly helps
That's how you answer... solid offensive drive to go back up by 10
Bucky playing a very inspired 1st half... they'll need to keep the intensity up for another 30, though. I like the running game right now. Hit the hole & go upfield.

Horrible pass by Tolzien in the middle of the field.

Good defensive stand on the turnover.
