The last rushing TD in OT supports your claim. The same 330lb Tackle that was wearing cement shoes for most of the game and completely gassed sprints at amazing speed for a man his size all the way to the endzone~ 25 yards away. To throw a block immediately to Sampsons left at the 1 yard line so that he enters the endzone clean rather than getting stopped at the 1, or taking a big hit there anyway but still manages to score. The TV timeout coupled with the time the defense was on the field turned him into a totally different player than the guy who struggled mightily for the rest of the game. The guy breaking down the video was amazed...

OT was about the one time we went tempo, and just kept the pressure on. except for the should have been TD and then the TD run from the half inch line, we kept changing what we did. ran inside, ran outside, passed wide, passed over the middle. hit them with everything and tempo and it kept them on the back foot.

I think that helped out everyone, including the OTs. we need tempo and varied playcalling. we can drop one or the other to kinda be in maintain mode, but if we go slow and predictable on play calling we look pedestrian as all get out. My GF who has only sorta been watching football while dating me, third season, was able to call who some of the pass plays were designed to go to in real time, in person, no commentary or TV pauses or highlights to help. if she is able to call that stuff, you know opposing D's are eating it up, she doesn't take football too seriously either, so its not like she is some savant.

IDK why it took till OT to pull that out. maybe OT is scripted so they can run that faster than the rest. if so we need more of that. but it begs the question why we don't have scripted success on the first couple drives too.

We had great success on drive #1. The fumble destroyed what we accomplished on the possession. Had we finished that first drive, we might have had a different demeanor and come away with a "ripping good victory" (hat tip to @Carl Pickens )

Can’t play golf, can’t ride my bike, can’t comfortably sit out on the dock. There is absolutely nothing for me to like about the cold. Plus it’s painful these days.

all of your problems here are fixed with proper clothing attire.

none of the issues with the summer can be fixed with the proper clothing attire. I am going to sweat my nuts off in the summer even if I am walking around in swim trunks only.

the cold gives us:
mosquitos go back to whatever hell they came from.
no swamp ass
you don't break out into a sweat just taking the trash to the road.
you can spend more than an hour outside without dying from a heat stroke.
using a fire pit is actually enjoyable.
more and better food options, no heathen is eating chili in the summer.
its possible to enjoy more than watered down piss beer outside.

Use bug juice
Part of life
Just how fat are you?
Just how out of shape are you?
I'll give you that one
Speak for yourself
It's possible to do that in the heat.

Besides the firepit yoga pants are about the only positive thing about cold weather.

I’ll give you about 30% of that, the rest doesn’t factor in for me. I eat chili year round and always drink quality beer and if I wanted to put on layers of clothing to stay warm I’d move to North Dakota. But hey, to each their own.

I'd rather deal with some swamp azz and mosquitos than give up the lake and bikinis for 7 months.
