On the ESPN broadcast there was a moment when they were supposed to go to commercial break and they stayed with the broadcast for a few extra minutes. I don't think the announcers knew they were still on the air and I heard one say to the other, "Where has this been the past two weeks." I think it was in the first half when the comment was made. I answered back to the TV screen...Yeah, where has this been for the past two weeks!"
The Birds left some points on the field again but so did SD. Fortunately, as good as SD's offense is they do not appear to have a kicking game at all. When they were scoring huge amounts of points and piling up a gazillion yards I guess it did not matter but that weakness was disclosed yesterday. If they get in a close game that could be a problem for them and will most likely be a problem in the playoffs.
Not a problem for the Birds. The kicking game was rock solid yesterday. The punting into that strong wind was particularly impressive in the first half and I think was a big factor for the Birds and field position.
Harris has had some not so great games the past two weeks but he was huge yesterday. I agree with one of the previous posters...Kolbe has some ups and downs but he has heart. I saw him running down the field with Robinson looking for someone to block. You just have to love that in a QB.
The defense was so close to sacks so many times but they hurried the SD QB and they pounded him all day long. I have not watched SD but my impression was he had not been beat up like this all year long.
Schnell was impressive yesterday. The long TD was fun but it was that catch on the sideline late in the game where he got the foot down while up in the air that was the most impressive. What a great catch!
Great Homcoming win!
