Well folks that was a nail biter! But at the end of the day a win is a win. First and foremost I want to thank the Seawolves organization for their faith in me, and I hope to continue to grow to fill the shoes they've set for me.
Obviously the biggest thing was playing a little out of position. The Coaches and GMs asked me post draft if I would be open to playing Safety as they were already deep at Corner. It was definitely a little weird, and it took me a minute to get comfortable in the role as I gave up a few plays in the first half. However, I am happy to just be on the field getting valuable experience!
The end of that game was a real doozy. The D was getting tired after a long fight. The guys, along with the special team unit, did a terrific job holding the Buccaneers to only 6 points in, I think it was four trips to the redzone? Can't ask for better than that really! And then the offense. They were slow to start but started putting things together in the second half. That pick really looked like it might have spelt the end for us. But we got a good stop afterwards. Then that last drive! Man that was huge. 90 yards with two timeouts, and the two-minute warning? Man that is some elite play by the O! Converting multiple big plays, and then not letting a 1st & 20 stop them! Can't asking for a better way to start the season!
Overall I'm glad we got the dub, I was hoping to perform better but I'll chock it up to nerves and comfort. Looking forward to my first pick, hopefully it comes next week!
God Bless and go Seawolves!
