This season is a big change for me. I have made the jump from the DSFL to the ISFL, from the Grey Ducks to the Butchers. I have gone from being one of the highest TPE players on the Ducks, and on of the teams best players, to being the lowest TPE on the Butchers defense. The thing that has not changed though is my ability to make big plays when they are needed most. My rookie debut for the Butchers I forced a Fumble and recovered it, at a key moment that allowed us to score. I didn’t do much by way of tackles but I laid some big hits down and like I said, knocked the ball out. The other moment came in overtime when the Hawks were driving. 3rd and 7 I blitzed and sacked Fujiwara forcing a punt and ending their comeback hopes. So I was able to make a few splash plays at key moments similar to the way I did last season. I guess that ability to make plays at key moments is not based on TPE, I only hope the sim allows me to keep it up all season. The change in performance from my final DSFL season to my first isfl game isn’t drastic as I played well in my debut. I just have to hope to keep it up and try to repeat a safety of the year award back to back in the DSFL and in the ISFl.
