I think we started pressing a little too late and hence had to do it over and over again, which wore out the bigs. Agree that we don't have the horses to run a press for more than a couple possessions at a time. As for Jackson, I don't think there will be many games where he's as big a part of the game plan as he appeared to be on Saturday. Doesn't mean it wasn't disappointing to see him play so badly, but most games he should be our 3rd option. Your NYE experience sounds like a ringing endorsement for the league you're trying to put together for next football season. Happy New Year!
