At the time of writing we are 5 games into the S47 regular season and as far as I'm concerned, things are going slightly better for the Berlin Fire Salamanders than anticipated. This is because the team has actually managed to win one of their games, which I didn't anticipate. After entering into a rebuild at the end of last season, the Fire Salamanders are a team that's facing a long and difficult season ahead, but there is nonetheless a mood of optimism among the players on the team about where this path will take them. From an individual perspective, this is Devin Jones' second season in the ISFL and his first playing as a true cornerback. It would be fair to say he's hardly setting the league on fire, contributing minimally through the first 5 games of the season but given the difficulty of the position and the way the team as a whole is playing, I have very low expectations for this season in terms of statistics. I'm treating this as a building block, allowing Devin to gain some experience, grow his TPE and improve his attributes so he can come back next season as a real force. It's not going to be the most exciting year in the league for Devin, but hopefully some valuable lessons that can be learnt to allow him to grow and build on as his career progresses.
