Early in this game, we couldn't stop them. Our defense made Selvin Young look like Adrian Peterson. For whatever reason, they started passing, and we were able to get a handle on it. First half, we couldn't run the ball, but second half we started moving the chains on the ground, even after Reggie Bush got injured. We had a pick-6 on the last play of the first half by an undrafted rookie. Rob Bironas was awful.

This career should be more challenging, but games are too easy to win. I really want to get Maceo Sweetney next year, so I'm considering tanking the rest of the way and trading up for him. Even after that, I may not play games any more, just because they're too easy to win. Simming more closely reflects the strength of the team and staff you've built. Plus, it's more random, so it's more fun. Anyway, here's the box score:
