A good fake goes a long way

Practice #4 was full of stretch plays and long balls. After a downfall of rain with thunder and lightning threatened an outside practice, the sky cleared and practice began.

Some nice long throws were completed to Mo Tayeh and Tamber Zaman.

The lesson learned is that the long ball on playaction means nothing if the fake is sloppy. A great fake creates the separation a receiver needs to break open.

Good tempo. Good practice. The rain won't stop us.

"Hungry is a word that I've been analyzing here of late. It's not hunger that drives me, it's not hunger that needs to drive our football team. Hunger and thirst are things that can be quenched. We have to be a driven group, we have to seek greatness." - Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers

"Make Them Submit." - Coach Brown, Brooklyn Tech

Next practice Saturday 9am.
