After a great off-season where I improved my overall game a ton, I was excited for the beginning of the season. Week 1 came and we had a great game. My team played well and I put up some solid numbers. I think we got a little ahead of ourselves because Week 2 came and things didn't go as well.
We were up against a tough Tijuana team so we knew we had to bring our "A" game. The problem is, knowing is easier than actually doing. Tijuana really handed us our lunches. They dominated the game and beat us 43-10. Personally, I couldn't get anything going. I only threw for 217 yards and 1 interception. Their defense were jumping routes, rushing me quickly, and just giving me no good looks out there. I tried to establish the run, but they were stuffing that as well. They were extremely well prepared and played their game plan perfectly. It definitely brought us back down to earth. Even after all the hard work and success form week 1, if you don't keep that same energy, the results aren't going to stay the same.
We'll be ready for next week and I think a loss like this will help us in the long run. Now we know what to expect and what happens if we don't execute our game plan and don't come ready to play every game.
