Message: [QUOTE="HurricaneDave, post: 3177873, member: 8271"] It doesn't matter how "hard" practice if the players aren't any good. I'm not sure what that even means. RE can have the team run for 2 hours every practice and that would be "hard." Putting 15 guys on defense during practice would make it "hard" for the offense. You don't want the players beat up by the time the only thing that matters comes around each week, the game. I don't think the defense repeatedly gave up last year because the practices weren't hard enough. It probably had to do with all the 3 or less play scoring drives because they were outmatched in every phase of the game. That will erode the will to compete in a hurry. [/QUOTE]
