RMT - Fike score could have been worse if the Gryphons were not so hung up on throwing the ball in the first half. Gryphon passing game was inept. Fike could not stop the run especially #1 and #32. Defensively, #44, 90 and 9 dominated for the defense. Fike had no passing game so the Gryphons secondary were not tested ... unlike against Hunt.
That's spot on. Forest is in a funk lately, and the choice of pass plays called could not get him in rhythm. I fear that if we do run deep into the playoffs and the run game stalls, won't have a credible passing game.
