this Rodeo Mike well let's get right to the action tonight the QB makes the toss that gets us to Second down second play of the drive he makes the hand off that brings up third down quarterback to pass grabbed out of the air that's a great pitch and catch for the first out he steps back to pass throws the ball across the first down line that gets us to Second down from under Center tonight [Music] [Applause] handing it off to number 22 second down the runner punches away that will bring up first down number four from the gun Z he tosses it to number 26 that will bring up second down go hayn takes the carry third down passes one to the back the runner breaks [Music] through good enough for a first down it's runs like that Dave that helps set the tone for this game nothing fancy just our guys beat your guys he Dodges away brought down almost immediately up near the seven yd line Second down pitches it out to number 22 that will bring up third down number four drops back it's caught for the score great move by the receiver to shake off his Defender and grab the short touchdown pass here's the pick and it's good the away team with the first score of the game seven nothing the home team gives up the first touchdown of the game but will get it a chance to even things up on this next Drive taken at the the home team has a great opportunity to get back out in front of this ball game on this drive go [Music] he sends one deep down the center of the field this is not the type of offense you want to hand momentum like this to they have some real threats on the field go number two gives it [Music] away second down here's a flag on the play and he won't make it very far before being dragged down by Smith we'll see if the penalty affects the outcome the home team accepts the penalty his timing was just off there and jumped off [Applause] sides throws the ball across the first down line the pass Falls harmlessly Le to the ground lining up on second down the QB makes the [Music] toss that brings up third down a crucial third down for the offense go he takes the [Music] ball that brings up fourth down the field goal unit makes his way up to the line number 41

five takes the K makes the return up to the 13 yd line the away team has the chance to make this a two-score game with this possession dropping back the away team with the play action pulled in by number one good enough for a first down quick first downs like that keep the defense guessing takes the hand off and looks to pass tackle made and that's enough for a first down tonight pitches it out to number 22 [Music] second down second and short number four handing it [Music] off third down he decides to keep it himself and he won't make it very far before being dragged down by Washington after a run like that it's so tempting to just keep feeding him the ball until the defense finds a way to stop it the QB makes the TOs that gets us to Second down that signals the end of the first quarter the away team out in front 7 three there's a penalty marker on the field the away team accepts the penalty if the coach hasn't created a culture where penalties are not acceptable then players won't take that extra effort to avoid making them go steps into the pocket he scored what a play that is what football is all about now go there's the kick and it's good the away team widens their lead 143 in many ways this one was not the game we expected Dave but certainly this type of lead has made a statement Harr catches the kickoff it's the return up to the 15 yd line it needs to be go time for the offense they need to stop messing around tighten up your chin strap and get ready to drive the ball down the field number two dropping back and he goes down sacked back at the 10 second

good chance for the offense to give themselves a bit of breathing [Applause] room quarterback to pass tosses a pass along the right side he can't bring it in the away team lining up with three receivers tonight the quarterback decides to run brought down almost immediately at the 25 yd line drops back into the pocket and he's taken down by Hamilton first down number four from the gun hike herwell to the right side of the field that will move the chains the away team comes out with a single back he drops back finds a Target the pass falls harmlessly to the ground he drops back to pass the quarterback decides to run go number four drops back intercepted by number 11 scanning the field you can always tell when a player makes a mistake he's walking off the field as far from the head coach as possible as an offense the best way to show appreciation to the defense for forcing a turnover is to go drive down the field and turn it into a score he tosses it to the runner that brings up second down just a single back in the back field for the home team go he makes the [Applause] [Music] handoff that brings up a crucial third down number two handing it off tackled near the line I think that's a good call by the coach there's still a lot of game left and you don't want to force things and make a mistake here go he punts it away number three the punt makes the return up to the 17 yd line the awaya team comes into this drive with a onep possession lead I'm looking for them to try and take a chunk of time off the clock and grab another score the hand off is taken by number

back the away team will fake the hand off and look to pass that'll be enough for the first down not elusive enough to make that into a big play but still keeps that defense on the field tackled quickly around the 33 yd line the QB hands it off he breaks the [Music] tackle dropping back throws a pass makes the catch and he's tackled good enough for a first [Applause] down throws a p he snags it out with the air for the touchdown the away team had all cylinders firing on that touchdown here's the kick it's good the away team adds another score 21 10 for a defense this becomes personal now
