One thing I've noticed is that our defense is so aggressive, they peel out a lot on grass.
lots of guys getting open in both the Carolina and Houston games simply because footing gives out occasionally on even the best grass.
Aggressive assignments and be a detriment on grass that wont on field turf.

The good news,
We play a grand total of 2 more games on grass!
@ Arizona and @ SF.

This team loves the plastic stuff.

If so, here's hoping we figure out a way to plan for grass games.

Another thing I noticed today was that Houston was giving our defense problems with their snap count. It didn't seem like our defense got off the snap very well on a lot of plays. Maybe I'm just seeing things.

You know what type it is!

(On a side note)
You also know that Denver playoff games are almost never above 40 degrees.

I would much rather they play on the plastic stuff than that " grass" like,the Redskins field. If grass is maintained and in good shape it is the best on joints and it is almost as fast. Not taken care off you may as well play in the mud or if dry and rock hard on the street.

I only really noticed a problem on the foster touchdown catch where dude fell I thought the reason our d was gettin ate up over the middle was the zone we were playing constant assault by Daniels and foster in the middle
